OPERATION

1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart
600-Watt Blender on a flat, sturdy surface.
It is important that the surface be clean and
dry. Assemble the blender jar by following the
Assembly Instructions. Once the jar is assembled
and is in position on the motor base, plug the unit
into an electrical outlet.
2. Put all necessary ingredients into the blender jar and
replace the cover. You may add more ingredients
by lifting the measured pour lid and dropping
ingredients through the fill area. Replace the
measured pour lid after adding ingredients. Do not
put hands into blender jar with blender plugged in.
Note: Add liquid ingredients first, then follow with
solid ingredients. This will provide more consistent
blending and prevent unnecessary stress on the
motor.
Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of
cover upward. Lifting measured pour lid will not
remove cover.
3. Start blending:
Press the On/Off button. The red LED indicator
light will illuminate and flash, indicating that the
blender is turned on but no speed has been
selected.
4. Choose blending speed: Press High, Low or Ice
Crush buttons to determine the speed at which
you would like to blend the ingredients. Both the
On indicator light and the activated speed indicator
lights will glow. The blender will now be function-
ing at the desired speed. It is possible to switch
speeds without pressing the On/Off button, by
simply pushing another speed button.
WARNING: FLASHING RED LIGHT INDICATES
READY TO OPERATE. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES.
Pulse mode: The Pulse mode allows you to create
a burst of power for quick, efficient blending. To
use the Pulse function, push the On/Off button and
the red LED indicator light will illuminate. Push the
Pulse button and the blue Pulse LED indicator light
will blink. Push and release the desired speed but-
ton. Repeat as desired. You determine the duration
of each pulse. While pulsing, the blue LED indicator
light 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 that do not require an extended
amount of blending.
