Operation Steps:

Preparation: Cut ingredients into small pieces (approx. 2 cm).
Measurement: Use the lid plug or an electronic scale to measure ingredients.
Loading: Pour ingredients into the blender jar, then add the appropriate amount of water.
Securing the Lid: Align and press the lid onto the jar, then screw on the small measuring cup.
Placement: Place the blend jar correctly on the base, ensuring it's on a flat surface. Rotate the main unit connector 15° if needed for proper seating.
Power On: Connect the power cord. Backlight lights will flash, the buzzer will sound, and the START/STOP button will flash. The machine will not power on if the mixing jar is not in place.
Function Selection: Select the desired function key (e.g., SMOOTHIES, ICE CRUSH, PUREE, BLEND, LOW, MED, HIGH).
Start Blending: Press the "START/STOP" button. The timer will display the total blending time and count down. Programs stop automatically.
PULSE Function: Press the "PULSE" button for high-speed blending for a default of 2 minutes, stopping when released.
Stirring: For crushed ice, jam, or dry-grinding, remove the lid of the small cup and use the stirring rod for a more delicate effect.
Completion: When blending is complete, the buzzer sounds, and the machine returns to standby.
Serving: Remove the blender jar, pour out the juice, and add seasonings.
Travel Bottle Usage: Pour ingredients into the travel cup, add water, align the cup holder with the cup mouth, and tighten. Place on the main body, ensuring it's on a flat surface. Select a function and press "Start/Stop." After blending, remove the travel cup, twist the knife holder to the left, and replace with the travel bottle cap.

Important Notices:

Do not add hot water during operation to avoid scalds.
Total ingredients and water should not exceed the 1500ml mark in the pitcher to prevent overflow.
It is recommended to use the blender less than three times continuously. Allow a 10-minute interval between uses. If the main engine overheats, shut it down for about 30 minutes before continuing.
For ice crushing with the travel bottle, do not exceed 150g of ice at a time. The cup and ice should be dry and not melted for best results.
