®
SmartPower Premier
™

the surface be clean and dry. Assemble the blender by follow-
ing the assembly instructions. Once the jar is assembled and is
in position on the motor base, plug the Cuisinart

600-Watt Blender into an electrical outlet.
2. Add all necessary ingredients to the blender jar, and replace
the cover. You may add more ingredients by lifting the meas-
ured pour lid and dropping ingredients through the fill area.
Replace the measured pour lid after adding ingredients. Do not
place 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.
