Preparation Techniques
Pulse technique- If you want the food to be chopped or blended
coarsely, then instead of holding the beaker down, press it down
briefly and intermittently a number of times with short breaks
between. Take care not to lock the beaker into position, or the motor
will run continuously.
Shaking technique- If the blade is not distributing the food properly
in beaker, you can lock the beaker into position so the motor is
running continuously, lift the entire mixer up from the counter and
shake it back and forth a few times so the food shifts position in the
beaker. Then put the mixer back on the counter and let it run a little
longer.
Be very careful when you use the shaking technique!
Hold both beaker and base unit firmly to prevent them separating
from each other while you are shaking them.
Shake and pulse technique- If you want the food to be chopped or
blended coarsely, you can lift the entire mixer up from the counter
and give it a powerful shake downwards, concluding the movement
by briefly pressing the beaker down (pulse function). This sends the
food down onto the blades.
Continue until the food shows the desired consistency.
Be very careful when using the shake and pulse technique!
Hold both beaker and base unit firmly to prevent them separating
from each other while you are shaking them.
Tapping technique- If the food sticks to the inside of the beaker
and is unable to reach the blade, you can take the beaker with the
blade unit fitted off the base unit and tap it gently against the kitchen
counter so that the food falls down onto the blade. Then return the
beaker to the base unit and continue to process the food.
Important! Do not use any techniques other than the pulse
technique when the blender beaker is fitted.
