OPERATING THE BLENDER OPERATING THE BLENDER
Using the Blender pitcher ingredient cup, and Soft Start blending
feature
• The Blender pitcher ingredient cup can
be used to measure and add ingredients.
Remove cup and add ingredients at speeds
1, 2, or 3. When operating at higher
speeds with a full pitcher or with hot
contents, stop the Blender and then add
ingredients.
• The Soft Start blending feature
automatically starts the Blender at a lower
speed to draw ingredients into the blades,
then quickly increases to the selected
speed for optimal performance. The Soft
Start blending feature only works when a
speed is selected and does not work with
the Pulse or Ice features.
IMPORTANT: If blending hot foods or
liquids, remove the center ingredient cup,
and place a towel over the lid. Operate
only on speed 1. Do not use Pulse or Ice
feature for hot liquids.
