HOW TO USE
Before using the blender for the first time, wash all parts except for the base. (See page 6 for cleaning
instructions.)
After cleaning, reassemble the jar.
HOW TO ASSEMBLE THE JAR:
1. Turn the jar upside down and place it flat on a sturdy surface.
2. Place the gasket on the round opening on the bottom of the jar.
3. Turn the blade assembly upside down and put the blade end
in the jar opening.
4. Place the smaller opening of the jar base on top of the blade
assembly. Engage threads by twisting the jar base clockwise
until tightened. Make sure the jar base is fastened tightly to the
jar.
5. Place the jar on the base so that the jar markings are facing
you and the handle is positioned to one side.
HOW TO USE THE BLENDER:
1. Place the blender onto a flat, sturdy dry surface.
Pull the power cord until it is entirely out of the hidden cord storage.
2. Put ingredients into the jar. Put the lid in place.
3. Plug securely into outlet. Use the blender on a 120V, 60Hz only protected electrical supply.
4. To start blending, press the On/Off pad. On Indicator Light will flash.
Press the desired blending speed pad. Blending will start. Both the On Indicator Light and activated Speed
Indicator Light will be on.
It is possible to switch speeds without pressing the On/Off pad by simply pushing the next desired speed pad.
5. To stop blending, press the activated speed pad again. Blending will stop and the Speed Indicator Light will go
off. The On Indicator Light will continue to flash and blending can be restarted by pressing the desired speed
pad.
6. When finished blending, press the On/Off pad. The On Indicator Light will go off. Unplug from the outlet.
Note:
• Liquid ingredients can be measured in the pour lid using the measurement marking.
Replace the pour lid after ingredients have been added.
• Cut food into small pieces ( 1 / 2 ”-1”) before adding to the blender to achieve a more uniform result.
• Never place boiling liquid in the jar.
• For consistent blending, add liquid ingredients first and then add solid ingredients.
• If you want to add ingredients while the blender is operating, remove the pour lid and add the ingredients
through the opening.
• Don’t remove the jar from the base while the blender is on.
• Don’t twist the jar base when removing the jar from the base. Simply lift the jar from the base.
• If blending action stops during blending or ingredients stick to side of the jar, turn blender off. Remove the lid
and use rubber spatula to push mixture toward blades.
