Control Switch; Using Your Blender - Westinghouse WKBEB221 Instructions Manual

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

CONTROL SWITCH

The control switch allows you to stop the blender. Select one of the three speeds or
pulse:
P PULSE / 0-STOP / 1 LOW / 2 HIGH / ICE CRUSH
Use the PULSE function to blend foods that only require a short burst of high speed
blending, or to quickly clean the glass jar.
When pulsing, hold the control switch in the P-PULSE position for a maximum of
2 seconds at a time. Move the control switch to the 0-STOP position to stop pulsing.

USING YOUR BLENDER

Use the blender to prepare milk shakes, smoothies, fresh fruit or vegetable juices,
drinks, purée vegetables and fruits, and more.
You can also use the blender to prepare smooth soups. All ingredients should be
blended at room temperature. Add enough liquid for a smooth consistency.
1. Ensure the blender is unplugged from the wall socket.
2. Remove the glass jar from the motor base and open the lid.
3. Add the diced ingredients to the glass jar and then add water, milk or other
liquids. Ensure that you do not exceed the "MAX" 1500mL level and that the
contents cover the blades (approx. 250mL).
4. Close the lid on the glass jar with a firm press until it is tightly sealed.
5. Insert the feeding cap into the lid opening and turn it anticlockwise to lock it in
place.
6. Place the assembled glass jar on the motor base and turn the glass jar clockwise
until it locks into place.
7. Check that the control switch is in the 0-STOP position, and then plug the
blender into the wall socket.
8. Move the control switch to select the desired blending speed or pulse. To
prevent the motor from overheating, keep each continuous blending session to
no more than 3 minutes at a time. Let the blender rest at least 5 minutes before
blending again.
9. To add more ingredients during blending, remove the feeding cap. Turn the
feeding cap clockwise to remove it from the lid.
Add the ingredients through the lid opening and then replace the feeding cap. If
you are blending a full jar at higher speeds, stop the blender to add the
ingredients.
10. Once finished, move the control switch to the 0-STOP position and unplug the
blender from the wall socket.
11. Turn the glass jar anticlockwise to remove it from the motor base.
NOTE: The blender is fitted with a safety feature that prevents the blender from
switching on if the glass jar is not correctly assembled on the motor base.
WARNING: Never open the lid while the blender is operating.
Do not touch the blades. Keep hands, hair, clothing and utensils away
from the blades during operation to prevent serious injury or damage
to the appliance.
CAUTION: If you need to open the lid, always stop the blender and remove the jar
from the power base. Use a long-handled spatula to empty or scrape
food from the sides of the jar.
TIPS FOR USING YOUR BLENDER
• Cut ingredients into small pieces not exceeding 1.5 cm. Remove hard peel,
stones, seeds, etc.
