USING THE BLENDER

1. Place the Blender Jar by using provided slot, so that the handle of the Jar will be towards
the Control Dial. Make sure that it is fully seated in the Base.
2. Place the ingredients into jar. Add liquids first, then soft foods, then leafy greens, and ice or
frozen items last.
NOTE: Do not fill Blender Jar past the top-most measurement mark.
3. Firmly, secure Lid and Lid Center Cap in the Jar. Before operating the Blender, make sure
the Jar is properly positioned on the Blender Base. Then, plug the Blender into a grounded
outlet.
4. Turn the Control Dial from (O) to desired speed for continuous operation. You may change
desired speed by turning the Control Dial at any time. See the "Blender Function Guide"
for more information.
5. If blending hot liquids or ingredients, only use the full size blender jar (48 oz/1.4 L). Place
the Lid securely on the jar and the Center Cap locked in place. It is recommended to
operate only on speed (1) while blending hot liquid or food.
6. When finished, turn the Blender off by returning Control Dial to (O). Unplug the Blender
before removing the Blender Jar.
IMPORTANT: Allow the Blender to fully stop before removing the Lid, Blender Jar, or
pouring out your blended ingredients.
7. Tamper accessory: Remove the Lid Center Cap only. Stir or press contents down
towards the blade. Then, place the Lid Center Cap back before resuming blending.
USING PULSE MODE/ICE CRUSH MODE
Your Blender offers a Pulse/Ice Crush function with a soft start to avoid ingredient splatter.
When turning the Control Dial to the Pulse/Ice Crush ( ) function, the Blender will operate at
optimal speed to crush ice. This function will continue until you release the Control Dial,
returning to (O).
1.
Place ingredients or Ice cubes into the Blender Jar. Firmly secure Lid with Lid Center Cap
on Blender Jar.
2.
Turn and hold the Control Dial from (O) to Pulse/Ice Crush ( ) function. The Blender will
run at optimal ice crush speed. When finished, release the Control Dial to stop the Blender.
You may hold Control Dial on Pulse/Ice Crush ( ) function as per desired interval of time.
See "Blender Function Guide" for more information.
TIP: Use half of standard ice cube tray or 7-8 standard ice cubes at a time for blending.
The Ice Crush feature has been optimized to crush and chop ice without adding any liquid
ingredients.

CARE AND CLEANING

CLEANING THE BLENDER AND ACCESSORIES

Clean the Blender and accessories thoroughly after every use.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the Blender, do not immerse the Blender Base or cord in water. To
avoid scratching the Blender, do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
1.
To clean the Blender Base and cord: Unplug the Blender before cleaning. Wipe clean
the Base and the cord with a warm, damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth. Wipe clean the
Citrus Press Gear Assembly with a warm, damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
2.
Remove any remaining contents from the Jar. Fill half of the Jar with warm water, and add
1 or 2 drops of dish-washing liquid. Place the Blender Jar on the Base. Make sure the
Blender Jar is fully seated in the Base. Secure the Lid on the Jar, turn the Control Dial to
speed (3), and run the Blender for 15-20 seconds. Remove the Blender Jar, empty
contents and rinse with warm water.
