5. TO REST THE BLENDER: The unit has an advanced thermal,
resettable fuse feature. In the event of an overload condition,
the unit will shut down to protect the motor from overheating.
When this happens, reset the unit by unplugging the blender
and let it cool down for a minimum of 15 minutes.
6. TO STOP THE BLENDING PROCESS: Re-press the activated
speed button. The blending process will stop. The red On
indicator light will continue to flash to let you know that the
blender is still on and can be reactivated by pushing the
desired speed button. The blender can be completely
deactivated and stopped at any speed by pushing the Off
button. You will need to press the On button again to continue
blending.
7. PULSE MODE: While the blender is turned on, you can create
a burst of power for quick, efficient blending, by activating the
pulse function. To do so, first push the Pulse button, which will
cause the pulse indicator light to flash. Next, push and release
the desired speed button. Repeat as desired. You determine
the duration of each pulse. While pulsing, all indicator lights
(the on, the pulse, and the desired speed lights) will glow. The
pulse function can be used to break apart larger pieces of food
or to control the texture of food when chopping. The pulse
function is also effective in starting the blending process when
you do not want continuous power, or when processing items
which do not require an extended amount of blending.

measured pour lid on the blender jar. Press the On button.
