General Tips

• For best blending performance, the minimum amount of liq-
uid recommended per recipe is one cup (8 oz./250 ml). Add
more liquid if food is not blending properly.
• Processing hot foods or liquids in the blender may cause
hot liquid to spurt out when the cover is removed. Always
remove the filler-cap from the cover before blending hot
foods or liquids.
• To add foods when blender is operating, remove
filler-cap from container cover and add ingredients through
the opening.
• If blending action stops during blending or ingredients stick
to sides of the jar, turn blender OFF. Remove cover and use
a rubber spatula to push mixture toward blades.
• Do not try to mash potatoes, mix stiff dough, whip egg
whites, grind raw meat, or extract juices from fruits and
vegetables. The blender is not made to perform these tasks.
• Do not store food or liquids in the blender jar.
• Avoid bumping or dropping the blender.
