INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
• Cut ingredients into small even sized pieces. Do not try and blend large food items.
• Add liquid ingredients to the blender jug first, followed by solid or dry ingredients. This will
ensure a more consistent blend
• Fill the jug with the desired food. The maximum capacity is 1500ml
• DO NOT over fill the jug, this will block the operation. Please turn off the unit and take out
some of the food or liquid before switching back on.
• DO NOT try and blend frozen ingredients that have formed a solid mass. Allow to thaw slightly
and break up into smaller pieces before using
• DO NOT use the blender to mash potatoes or mix heavy dough
• If making breadcrumbs or processing herbs make sure the blender jar and blade are completely
dry
• Use a spatula to redistribute ingredients in the blender jar. NEVER use metal utensils as these
may damage the jar or blade.
• DO NOT use the blender jar to store food. Keep the jug empty when not in use.
• DO NOT over-process – most foods will blend in just a few seconds

HINTS AND TIPS
•
DO NOT use the blender for very hard food products, such as bones, shelled nuts, frozen
meats etc, as this could damage the blade and cause the motor to seize
• Allow frozen foods to thaw slightly and break into smaller pieces before using
• AVOID mixing excessively hot liquids as this can cause an excess of pressure to build up inside
the blender and the lid come off causing the contents to splash out.
• Allow hot food and liquids to cool to room temperature before blending.
• Add liquid ingredients to the blender jug first, followed by solid or dry ingredients. This will
ensure a more consistent blend
• The removable 60ml measuring cup in the lid makes it easy for additional ingredients to be
added whilst you blend
• Always make sure the blender jug and blade are completely dry before processing dry
ingredients such as making breadcrumbs or chopping fresh herbs
