OPERATION

BLENDING

The specially designed blade is for mixing and puréeing all kinds of
foods, including salad dressings, powdered drink products, soups and
sauces and blended drinks like milkshakes or smoothies.
This blade mixes and stirs while adding only a minimum of air to your
mixture. A gentle up-and-down motion is all you need to make the
most flavourful, full-bodied recipes. Be careful never to remove the
blending shaft from the liquid while in operation, for it will splatter.
Tilt the pan or bowl away from you if needed to ensure the protective
blade guard on the blending shaft is fully submerged.
1. Plug in motor housing.
2. Put blending shaft into mixture to be blended.
3. Select Speed. Press and hold the Lock/Unlock button on top of the
motor housing and press the power button to turn motor on. Once
motor is on, you can release the Lock/Unlock button but continue
to hold in the power button. You can also press the power button
first, holding it down as you press the Lock/Unlock button to turn
motor on. Speed can be gradually adjusted at any time during
blending. Do not hold power button down for more than 60
seconds at a time.
4. To turn the blender motor off, release the power button.
5. Unplug immediately after use.
CAUTION: DO NOT PUT FINGERS NEAR BLADE. TO DISLODGE
FOOD, UNPLUG HAND BLENDER FROM THE OUTLET FIRST.

PULSE

To Pulse, press and hold the Lock/Unlock button while pressing and
releasing the power button as desired.
CHOPPING AND GRINDING
Do not operate the chopper/grinder attachment without food in the
work bowl.
1. Put the work bowl on a flat, sturdy surface like a countertop.
2. Be sure the blade is assembled to use the edge that is appropriate
for the food to be processed, then place over metal blade shaft in
work bowl.

pieces, and the bowl not overloaded.
4. Put the chopper/grinder cover on top of the prep bowl, making
sure the cover is properly seated.

cover and push down to lock into place.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

HAND BLENDER
Always clean the motor body and blending shaft thoroughly after
using. Remove the blending shaft from the motor body. Clean the
motor body only with a sponge or damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleaners that could scratch the surface. To clean the blending shaft,
wash by hand in hot water using mild detergent or on top shelf of
dishwasher. Be mindful of the fixed razor-sharp blade edges.
