Using Your Blender
Cleaning Your Blender
Unplug your blender and remove glass jar from blender base by lifting straight up.
Rinse with warm water to remove any large food particles that may have accumulated
in the jar. For safety purposes your blade assembly is designed to not fully remove from
your blender jar. When cleaning your blender jar by hand always ensure that the jar is
removed from the motor base, and that the motor base is unplugged. Extreme caution
should be used when cleaning your blender jar as the blades are very sharp.
1 Your blender jar assembly can be cleaned by adding a small amount of dishwashing
detergent into the blender jar and fill halfway with water. Run on “mix” speed for
20 seconds and repeat with clean tap water.
2 Fully rinse the blender jar to remove all soapy residue. For stubborn stains fill
your assembled blender jar halfway with soapy water and allow to soak for 30
minutes. Repeat step 1 or use a thin nylon brush when cleaning around the blade assembly.
3 Wipe the cord and base clean with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
Caution: Do not immerse the blender motor base in water or other liquid. Do not use
abrasive cleansers on any part of the blender.
If you must loosen your blade assembly to remove a piece of wedged food follow the
instructions below:
Disassemble the blender jar by turning the jar upside down and turning the protruding
tabs down and counter-clockwise. Do not force the blade assembly out of the glass jar,
merely clean around the gasket and blade assembly to remove any wedged food.
• Your blender is equipped with a safety interlock that will prevent operation unless the
lid is properly placed on the blender jar, and the blender is properly placed on the
motor base. See Assembling Your Blender page 6.
• Remove the lid cap while blending hot liquids; this will release any steam and
condensation that may build up inside the jar.
• Do not place any utensil (spatula, fork, etc.) in the blender container while the
blender is operating. If you need to scrape ingredients from the sides of the jar, first
stop the blender and wait for the blades to completely stop moving.
• When blending solid foods, always cut them into no larger than 1/2 inch to
1-inch pieces before placing them into the jar. Blend no more than 1/2 cup of these
foods at a time for uniform blending.
• Remember that ice cubes vary in size and shape. Smaller ice cubes can be chopped
or crushed faster than larger ones. To add ice cubes to mixtures while the blender is
operating remove the lid cap and drop through the opening. Never attempt to crush
ice utilizing your food processor bowl.
• If too much food is blended at one time, the motor may stall. If this happens, stop
the blender. Remove a portion of the food; repeat the blending process.
• Always add liquid ingredients first, followed by solid ingredients.
• To add food or liquid while the blender is operating, remove the lid cap from the
blender jar cover and drop the ingredients through the opening. Remember to replace
the lid cap when you have finished adding the ingredients.
• Avoid over-blending. Usually, you will need to blend for only a few seconds,
not minutes.
• This blender is not intended to do any of the following tasks: grind meat, mash
potatoes, whip cream, knead dough, whip egg whites, or serve as a juice extractor.
• Never place any of the following ingredients into the blender jar: bones or large
pieces of solidly frozen foods. If the food cannot be cut with a knife, do not place
in the blender jar.
