DOs and DON’Ts WHEN USING
YOUR BLENDER
Do:
• Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that
stated on the bottom of the blender motor base.
• Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.
• Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then
add remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients
are uniformly mixed.
• Cut most foods into cubes approximately 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) to
1 inch (2.5 cm) to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses
into pieces no larger than 1/2 inch (1.3 cm).
• Use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such
as alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have
been added.
• Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the blender
is turned off. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur to
the blender jar or cutting assembly.
• Place cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the
cover on.
• Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.
• Always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber gasket
before cleaning.
• When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food
from the sides of the blender jar and place food in the center of
the blender jar, over the cutting assembly.
• When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs,
nuts, spices, etc, make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly
are completely dry.
• If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar when blending,
pulse in short bursts.
