PARTS AND FEATURES
On/O Switch
: Lifting the On/O Switch to the On (
|
) position starts the rotation
of the blade assembly and begins the blending process.
High/Low Switch: The High/Low Switch controls the speed of the rotation of the
blade assembly.
Container: Ounces, cups, and milliliters are clearly marked.
2-Part Lid: Your new machine has our latest lid design. It is easy to put on and
take o, and easy to clean. Always use the lid and the lid plug when the machine
is in operation.
CAUTION: Lids and tampers are not interchangeable between dierent
container styles, types, and sizes.
Snap the lid onto the container and leave in place for a few minutes. Once the lid
has been left on the container, it will be much easier to lock or remove.
Lid Plug: Insert through the lid and secure by turning clockwise. Remove the lid
plug to use the tamper or add ingredients.
Tamper: While the machine is running, and only through the lid plug opening,
use the tamper to press ingredients into the blades. Refer to “How to Use the
Tamper” on page 11.
To Lock the Lid in Place: Position lid on container with lid flaps midway between
the spout and the handle. Push the lid onto the container until it locks in place.
The lid must always be secured when processing, especially hot liquids that
may scald. Never operate the blender without checking to make sure the lid is
securely locked in place.
To Remove the Lid: Lift up on one lid flap while holding the container securely.
To Remove the Lid Plug: Rotate the lid plug counterclockwise from the “locked”
to “unlocked” position and lift out.
WARNING
Rotating Blades Can
Cause Severe Injury.
DO NOT reach into container
while machine is running.
