Using the Mixer
With the Cutting Blades
Using the cutting blades
WARNING: Inspect blades daily. Replace if dam-
aged or every 90 days to avoid broken blades.
Always keep the appliance unplugged during
assembly and disassembly.
• Install the stainless steel shaft and cutting blades
as described in the instructions on page 4.
• When using cutting blades make sure that the
blades do NOT come in contact with the bottom
or sides of the container.
For mixing and blending
1. Add the ingredients to the container or bowl,
following recipe instructions. Ingredients mix
best when liquids are added first, and solid
ingredients are “stirred” in.
2. Position the cutting head of the mixer in the
container so that the guard is covered by food.
NEVER submerse the vents on the motor
housing.
3. Start the mixer on LOW (1) speed, then switch to
HIGH (2) speed (if desired). Use a gentle up and
down motion while slowly turning the container
to “stir” the food until it has all been mixed to
the desired consistency.
w WARNING
Pinch, Cut, and Crush Hazard
Make sure that the mixer is off and
unplugged before installing or removing
attachments and parts.
Blades are sharp! Use extreme care when
handling.
DO NOT reach or insert utensils into the
container while the mixer is running.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in broken bones, cuts, or other serious injury.
Tips for Mixing
• Use deeper containers for mixing and blending to
help prevent splashing and spattering.
• Using a gentle up and down motion when mixing
helps circulate and “draw up” ingredients to provide
more consistent mixing results.
• Do not use to crush ice.
w WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Do not use an extension cord.
Do not immerse motor housing, cord, or plug
in water or any other liquid.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, fire, or electrical shock.
