• The PULSE/ICE CRUSH function is helpful when short bursts of power
are needed, such as when preparing thick smoothies or milkshakes. Do
not use pulse for more than 10 seconds at a time. Release the PULSE/ICE
CRUSH button regularly, allow the blender to rest briefly, then continue.
• Do not run blender for longer than 1 ½ minutes at a time.
• Do not use if blender jar is chipped or cracked.
• It is helpful to begin the blending process on the lowest speed and then
increase to a higher speed, if necessary.
• To stop blending at any time, press the ON/OFF button.
• When blending hot ingredients open the ingredient slot. Cover lid with a
cloth to avoid splattering and use speed 1. Do not blend more than 2 ½ to
3 cups at a time.
• Always operate the blender with the lid on the jar.
• Do not store foods in the blending jar.
• Do not overfill the blender (the blender is more efficient with less rather
than more).

• Large pieces of frozen foods
• Tough foods such as raw turnips, sweet potatoes and potatoes
• Bones
• Hard salami, pepperoni
