Blender Tips

Blender Jar Tips
• ALWAYS place liquid in blender jar first, then remaining
ingredients.
• For best performance, minimum amount of liquid needed per
recipe is 1 cup (8 ounces/237 ml). Add more liquid if food is not
blending properly. The amount of liquid needed will vary based
on other ingredients required for blending.
• If blending action stops during blending or ingredients stick to
sides of jar, stop blending and try pulsing or add more liquid to
blender jar.
• Do not store food or liquids in blender jar.
Personal Jar Tips
• If blending action does not start, stops during blending, or
ingredients stick to sides of the jar, press STOP button. Remove jar,
shake contents, and return to blending.
• For best performance in the 20-oz. (591-ml) personal jar, minimum
amount of liquid needed per recipe is 3/4 cup (6 ounces/177 ml).
• When filling jar, place frozen ingredients or ice into jar first. When
turned upside down to blend, frozen items will be on top.
• Avoid bumping or dropping blender when in operation or at any
time.
• Cutting large whole fruits and vegetables may allow them to blend
more quickly.
• Do not fill blender jar past highest graduation marking.
• If ice or frozen fruit pieces are not blending, stop blender and pulse
a few times.
• Do not allow ice to stand or freeze in jar. Immediately crush ice
after placing in jar.
• Keep lid on for easy pouring.
• Do not chop or process hard foods such as cheese, crackers, or
meat.
• Avoid bumping or dropping blender.
• Do not blend hot liquids in personal jar.
• Do not fill personal jar above MAX fill line.
