a program.
Smooth Boost
™
SMOOTH BOOST YES/NO is a special feature available when using the Auto-iQ
This setting can be used to control the consistency of your beverage recipes. Select SMOOTH BOOST YES when
smoother, creamier results are desired. This is the default program for both Auto-iQ EXTRACT and Auto-iQ BLEND
programs. Select SMOOTH BOOST NO when more of a textured consistency is desired.
Pulse
Offers greater control to help prevent over-processing or over-blending. Simply hold down the button and our blade
assemblies will run at a high speed for a quick burst of power to break through ice or chop vegetables.
Low
LOW is a manual setting that runs for 30 seconds and will automatically shut off. On this setting, blade assemblies
rotate at a slower speed, allowing heavy recipes like doughs to be mixed.
AUTO-iQ EXTRACT
EXTRACT should be used when blending hard, leafy, or fibrous whole fruits and vegetables, including apples, kale,
and celery. This optimized program allows you to blend fresh items with their skins, seeds, and stems into nutrient
extractions. Before using EXTRACT, select Smooth Boost YES or NO depending on your desired consistency.
AUTO-iQ BLEND
BLEND can be used to make a range of beverages that do not include hard or fibrous fresh ingredients, such as
milkshakes, protein smoothies, soft fresh-fruit smoothies, and frozen cocktails. Before using BLEND, select SMOOTH
BOOST YES or NO depending on your desired consistency.
AUTO-iQ CHOP
CHOP is a program composed of timed pulses and pauses to deliver consistent chopping results for a range of
