• If you need to scrape ingredients from the sides of the jar ensure your blender is off unplug from
the wall outlet.
• When blending solid foods, always cut them into no larger than 1/2-inch to 1-inch pieces before
placing them into the jar. Blend no more than 1/2 cup of these foods at a time for uniform blending.
• We do not recommend blending herbs or spices in the blender jar. They can permanently discolor
the blender jar and release strong odors into the container which will affect the fl avor of other
foods.
• Remember that ice cubes vary in size and shape. Smaller ice cubes can be chopped or crushed
faster than larger ones. To add ice cubes to mixtures while the blender is operating, remove the
fi ller cap and drop through the opening.
• If too much food is blended at one time, the motor may stall. If this happens, stop the blender and
unplug from the wall outlet. Remove a portion of the food and then continue the blending process.
• For more consistent results, always add liquid ingredients fi rst, followed by solid ingredients.
• To add food or liquid while the blender is operating, remove the fi ller cap from the blender jar cover

not minutes.
