Blending Tips and Tricks
•
Cut food into pieces no larger than

When preparing foods that have
several different kinds of ingredients,
always add liquid ingredients first.
•
When ingredients splatter onto
the sides of the jar or the mixture
is very thick, press Stop (
turn appliance off. Remove the lid
and use a rubber spatula to scrape
down the sides of the jar and to
redistribute the food, pushing food
toward the blades. Replace the lid
and continue blending.

sure blender jar is completely dry.

short bursts. Allow the blades to stop
rotating between pulses. Do not use

down sides of blending jar, if
necessary, and continue blending.
•
Do not use if blending jar is chipped
