C. HINTS & TIPS
• For best results when using your Blender, always put the hardest ingredients into the cup first
(ice cubes, frozen fruit, etc) and finish with the softer ingredients and liquids.
• It is recommended that most foods be cut into 3cm pieces to achieve the most uniform result.
• If food sticks to the sides of the cup when blending, stop the blender, remove the cup and gently
shake the cup. Replace and blend again.
• When blending thicker mixtures, lightly hold down the top of the cup to prevent jumping on
the surface.
• After blending, remove the cup and place on a surface so that the blade assembly is on the top.
Gently tap the cup a few times to prevent any spillage which may occur when removing the
blades.
• Some recipes may require more than a minute of blending. Simply start the blender again,
5. CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
• Always clean the appliance thoroughly after use.
• Remove the blade and clean the main unit with a sponge or damp cloth only.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
• Wash the blade by hand in warm soapy water.
• The blending cup, blade protection cover and drinking lid can be washed in warm soapy water
or cleaned on the top rack of the dishwasher.
CAUTION: Handle the blade carefully. The blades are sharp and may cause injury. DO NOT
attempt to remove blades from cutting assembly.
