OPERATION
1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart
®
SmartPower
®
Deluxe
600-Watt Blender on a flat,
sturdy surface. It is important that the surface
be clean and dry. Assemble the blender 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 functioning
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.
5. To reset the unit: This appliance features an
advanced resettable thermal fuse. In the event
of an overload condition, the unit will shut down
to protect the motor from overheating. To reset
the appliance when this happens, unplug the unit
and let it cool for a minimum of 15 minutes. Then,
reduce the contents of the blender jar and/or clear
any jams. Restart the unit as noted in the operating
directions.
6. To pause or stop blending process:
a. To pause blending process:
Push the button corresponding to the speed at
which you are currently blending. For example:
If you are blending on High speed, push the
High speed button and the blender will stop
blending but the unit will remain on.
b. To stop blending process:
Push the On/Off button when you are finished
with your recipe and would like to turn the
blender off.
c. To prevent excessive stress to the motor:
Your blender incorporates an auto-stop feature.
After running continuously for two minutes, the
blender will automatically revert to Standby
mode. To continue blending, press the desired
function.
7.
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 Pulse LED indicator light will
blink. Push and release the desired speed button.
Repeat as desired. You determine the duration of
each pulse. While pulsing, the 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.
8. To crush ice: The SmartPower
®
Deluxe
600-
Watt Blender motor is strong enough to crush
ice without liquid at any speed; however, for your
convenience, we have preset the best speed for
ice crushing. To crush ice, place ice cubes in
the blender jar. Press the On/Off button. The On
indicator light will illuminate. Press the Ice Crush
button until ice is crushed to desired consistency.
