the controls
22 The buttons on the right of the smoothie maker are:
top button – low speed, for lighter jobs, using mainly liquid ingredients
1
2 middle button – high speed, for heavier jobs, using mainly solid ingredients
2 bottom button – this returns both 1 and 2 buttons to the "off" position, and
switches the motor off
f ice button – this button is spring-loaded, press to run the motor, let go to stop.
Use this to reduce ice to slush, for icy drinks. It runs the motor at high speed, so
use it in bursts – press, let go, check the results, then repeat till you've reached
the degree of slushiness you want. You can also use this for the occasional burst
of high speed during low speed operation. Just press and let go.
23 You can swap between 1 and 2 – pressing either of these buttons cancels the other.
24 If you're using the tap to dispense really thick smoothies, running the motor on low
speed (1) will help the flow.
25 Don't run the motor continuously for more than 3 minutes, it may overheat. After 3
minutes switch off for at least 1 minute, to let the motor cool.
adding ingredients
26 To add ingredients while the smoothie maker is working:
cap
turn the cap anti-clockwise to align the lugs in the bottom of the cap with
the slots in the hole, lift the cap off, pour/drop the new ingredients through
the hole, then replace the cap and turn it clockwise to lock.
stirrer lift the stirrer out of the hole, scrape it against the side of the hole on the
way out, to remove drips, then pour/drop the new ingredients through the
hole, and replace the stirrer in the hole.
27 Check that the added ingredients don't push the volume in the jug past the
1800ml/max mark.
finished?
28 Press 2, and wait till the blades stop moving before removing the lid from the jug,
or removing the jug from the motor unit.
the tap
29 You can rotate the tap lever to whatever side or angle you
find convenient.
30 To open the tap, lift or press the lever.
31 To lock it open, lift or press as far as it'll go.
32 When dispensing thick smoothies, it helps to run the
motor at low speed (1). If they're really thick, use the stirrer
as well. Use it via the hole, don't remove the lid.
33 When dispensing thick smoothies, remember that you'll
need one hand for the tap, and one for the stirrer, so find a
stable, flat-bottomed glass, cup, or container, to sit on the
work surface, under the tap, for the smoothie.
