DO'S AND DON'TS

Do's
• Use the Blend function for for drinks
or cocktail making, emulsions such
as mayonnaise, dressings, marinades
and foods that require mixing until just
combined, such as batters, also for
pureeing soups and aerating liquids.
• Use a combination of the Blend and Ice/
Auto Pulse functions to suit the foods
being processed.
• Use the Smoothie function to blend
fruits, ice cream and yoghurts into thick
smoothies, whips and milkshakes.
• Use the Ice/Auto Pulse function for foods
that only require short bursts of power
such as chopping nuts and crushing ice.
• Use the Ice/Auto Pulse function with
short bursts of power, when blending
drinks containing ice cubes or frozen
fruit.
• Ensure all foods are cut into cubes
(approx. 1 inch square) where
appropriate to achieve an even result.
• Do not put more than 2 cups of warm
ingredients into the Breville Die-Cast
Hemisphere Blender™ before blending
commences. After the blending process
has begun and the blades are turning
you may slowly add another 1½ cups of
ingredients through the opening in the lid
if desired.
• Thick mixtures puree more effi ciently
if the Breville Die-Cast Hemisphere
Blender™ is ¼ to ½ full.
• When using several ingredients, place
liquid ingredients in the blender jug
before solid ingredients, unless specifi ed
in the recipe. When blending thick or
dry mixtures it may be necessary to
stop the Breville Die Cast Hemisphere
Blender™ and scrape down the sides of
the blender jug with a plastic or rubber
spatula, once or twice during blending.
Do not use metal utensils as they may
damage the blades or blender.
Don't
• Do not operate a heavy mixture for
more than 10 seconds. For normal
blending tasks, for example, mayonnaise,
dressings etc., do not operate for
longer than 2 minutes at one time
without turning off the Breville Die-Cast
Hemisphere Blender™ and stirring the
ingredients, and then continue blending.
• Do not operate the Breville Di- Cast
Hemisphere Blender™ without having
the blender lid in position. To add
additional ingredients whilst blending,
remove the inner lid and place
ingredients through the opening in the lid.
• Do not place any objects, other than
food or liquid, into the Breville Die-Cast
Hemisphere Blender™ whilst the motor
is running.
• Do not use the blender jug to store food.
• The blender will not knead dough or
mash potatoes.
• Do not remove the blender jug while the
Breville Die-Cast Hemisphere Blender™
is operating. Always make sure the
blender is switched off by pressing the
'Power' button, switch off the power at
the power outlet and unplug the power
cord from the power outlet.
• Do not overload the Breville Die-Cast
Hemisphere Blender™ with more than
the specifi ed quantity of ingredients as
doing so could cause the motor to stall.
Turn the Breville Die Cast Hemisphere
Blender off by pressing the 'Power'
button on the control panel, switch
off the power at the power outlet and
