Tips

• If the volume (while blending) is below
the maximum line, the inner measuring
cap can be removed and oils/liquids
can be added while blender is in use.
• Caution should be taken if blending large
volumes or thin liquids, as splashing may
occur through the centre cap area.
• Run the blender only for the
appropriate amount of time required
– do not over blend ingredients.
• Use the PULSE button when food is too thick
or coarse to circulate within the blender jug.
• Do not exceed the maximum mark
when adding foods and liquids into
the blender.
• Ingredients may stick to the sides of the
blender jug. To push food back onto the
blades, turn the blender off and unplug at the
wall. Use a plastic spatula to scrape down the
sides of the jug, and then continue blending.
• If any moisture or liquid appears on top of
the motor base during blending, turn the
blender off and unplug at the wall. Remove
the blender jug, and wipe motor base
immediately with a dry cloth or paper towel.
• To stop blending at any time or during the
SMOOTHIE program, press the
CANCEL button.
• When the blender has been running for
120 seconds (or 60 seconds for the smoothie
program), it will automatically turn off. This
is a safety feature to protect the motor.
• A speed or function can be selected at any
time, even while the blender is running.
Press the new speed or program, and the
blender will change operation immediately.
• The maximum amount of ice cubes
that the blender can process is 8-10
cubes from a standard ice tray.

Use the SMOOTHIE function to blend
fruits, ice cream and yogurts into thick
smoothies, whips and milkshakes.

Use the PULSE function for foods that
only require short bursts of power, such
as chopping nuts and crushing ice.
9 9
When blending drinks with ice cubes
or frozen fruit, use PULSE in
short bursts.

Thicker mixtures puree more
efficiently if the jug is ¼ to ½ full.
Don't
8 9
Do not use metal utensils, as they may
damage the blades or blender jug.
8 9
Do not blend a heavy mixture for more
than 10 seconds. For normal blending
tasks, do not blend longer than 1 minute
at a time. If you need to blend longer,
turn off the blender and stir ingredients
before starting again. This rest will help
protect the motor from wear and tear.

The blender will not knead dough,
or mash potatoes.

When blending warm ingredients, do
not put more than 2 cups at a time in.
8 9
Do not blend hot or boiling ingredients.
Allow food to cool down to a warm state
before placing in the blender. This is to
safeguard against sudden bursts of steam
that could cause the lid to dislodge.

If blending warm ingredients, place a tea
towel over the lid and hold down firmly.
