The Automatic overload protection is a built-in feature which is designed to protect the motor and prevent your machine from overheating. If the Overload Protection kicks in, the machine will stop operating suddenly. Leave the machine to cool down for 5 to 10 minutes, and then (while the machine is still connected to power), press the Overload Button on the bottom of the machine.

14. When blending hot liquids or ingredients, use caution; spray or escaping steam may cause scalding and burns. Fill the jug 1/3 or max ½ full. Filling the jug more than halfway can cause too much steam to build up and can blow the lid off the blender. Remove the lid-plug, and place lid (without the cap) securely on the jug.
PARTS & FEATURES 2-Part Lid: Is easy to put on and take off, and easy to clean. Always use the lid and the lid insert when the machine is in operation. The 1.5ltr jug has a square lid, the 2ltr jug has a round lid. Both have lid inserts;...

To lock the lid in place: 1. Position lid on container with sides of the lid between the container’s inner edges. 2. Push the lid the container’s edges until it locks in place. WARNING Rotating Blades can cause severe injury. DO NOT reach into container while machine is running.
ABOUT THE BLADES The OmniBlend machine comes standard with the multi-purpose blade. The blade assembly has stainless steel ball bearing. This blade fits both the 1.5 Ltr and 2 Ltr container. Additional containers with blades may be purchased separately. Blade assemblies can also be purchased separately. The blade assembly comes with a 1-year warranty.

WARNING Rotating Blades can cause severe injury. DO NOT put hands, spatulas, etc. in the container while the machine is running or while the container is still on the base, only use the tamper through the lid. WARNING Moving Parts may become hot after extended use. DO NOT touch.
HOW TO USE THE TAMPER? The tamper allows you to accelerate the process of very thick and/or frozen mixtures that cannot be processed in a regular blender. Using the tamper maintains circulation by preventing air pockets from forming. While the machine is running, and only through the lid plug opening, use the tamper to press ingredients into the blades as you make frozen ice creams and nut butters, or purée fruits and vegetables.
WARNING When using the tamper, hold the jug firm on the base with the other hand, and avoid excessive wiggling of the jug on the base. If the jug is wiggling on the base it starts wearing the drive socket. CONTROL PANEL 1.
HINTS FOR SETTING SPEEDS Always start the machine with the Speed Switch down to the LO position. If a recipe calls for processing on HI, flick the switch from LO to HI. Do not begin processing on HI, always start with the Variable Speed Dial on LO.

WARNING Never Start on Speeds Above 1 with Hot Liquids to Avoid Possible Burns. Use Caution; escaping steam or splashes may scald. Leave a small opening for the heat to escape, and hold the lid with a tea towel. Blend on low speed...
