Blending Tips

• Do not operate for more than 10 minutes at a time.
• Jar should be at least 25% full at all times for optimal performance.
• Filler cap should always be assembled to the lid and locked when blending
hot liquids.
• Use High speeds as much as possible for whole food juices, soups,
shakes, frozen mixtures, making purées and nut butters. Processing times
will generally be less than one minute (most take less than 30
seconds). High speed provides the best quality of refinement, breaking down
ice, frozen fruit, whole fruits or vegetables to a smooth lump-free consistency.
• Never blend without the lid firmly in place on the jar.
• If on High speed the food is not circulating, try using the tamper. If this is also
not working, try using a slower speed. Once the food begins to circulate again,
you can switch back to a High speed.
• A Quick Response code is located on the back of the base of the unit. Using the
Microsoft Tag application on your smart phone, scan that tag to be directed
®
to the product page to find pertinent product information such as instruction
manuals, replacement parts, customer service, recipes, etc.
• Due to the power of the machine, it is normal for it to be fairly loud during
operation. Through the blending cycle, the noises may change, but there is no
need to be concerned.
I ce Crushing: For optimal ice crushing, fill the jar with preferred amount of ice.
Then fill with water just above where the ice stops. Use the speed dial to blend
on High for a few seconds. Then drain out the excess water and you are left
with a jar filled with great consistent ice!
Troubleshooting:
1. If the blender does not turn on:
1. Turn control knob to "OFF" position and unplug from electrical outlet.
2. Make sure the blade is free of any obstruction.
3. Plug the unit back in.
4. Make sure jar is securely placed on the blender base.
5. Restart unit by turning control knob to desired setting.
2. If the blender stops during operation:
1. Fuse/Overload Protection activated
1. The motor is designed to protect itself from overheating; when
neccesary, the motor will turn itself off.
2. Reset the motor by:
1. Turn control knob to "OFF" and unplug from electrical outlet.

2. Remove the jar from the base and free the blade of any obstructions.
3. Wait 30-45 minutes for the unit to cool.
4. Press the resettable fuse button located on the bottom of the base.
2. Jar Sensor on base released
1. To restart the unit, turn control knob to "OFF" position.
2. Make sure the jar is securely placed on the blender base.
3. Restart the blender by turning the control knob to the desired setting.
If the warning light flashes and the motor will not run with the jar in place,
the unit has not cooled sufficiently. Turn the control knob to "Off" and wait
another 10-20 minutes before trying again.

Cleaning

Base: First turn the control to "Off" and unplug the power cord. Then wash
outside surface with a damp soft cloth or sponge using mild soap and warm
water. Never immerse the motor base in water or other liquid.

Close the jar with the lid and filler cap. Turn Speed Dial to a "Low" speed and
then increase to "High". Run for 30-60 seconds. Turn the machine OFF, rinse
the jar out with running water then dry.
Lid & Filler cap: Separate the 2 pieces and wash in warm soapy water. Rinse
clean under running water, then dry.

After cleaning, store with lid not closed completely to allow air to circulate and
prevent container odors.
