Black & Decker Blender Instruction Manual

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be 

followed, including the following:

•  Read all instructions.

•  To protect against risk of electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs or 

appliance in water or other liquid.

•  Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near 

children.

•  Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, 

and before cleaning.

•  Avoid contacting moving parts. 

•  Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the 

appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return 

appliance to the nearest authorized service facility or call the appropriate 

toll-free number on the front of this manual for examination, repair or 

electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free 

number on the cover of this manual.

•  The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended by the 

manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury.

•  Do not use outdoors.

•  Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

•  Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to reduce the risk 

of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. A scraper may be 

used, but must be used only when the blender is not running.

•  Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.

•  To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutter-assembly blades on base 

without jar properly attached.

•  Always operate blender with cover in place.

•  When blending hot liquids, remove center piece of two-piece cover.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To 

reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized 

outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the 

plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to 

modify the plug in any way.

a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be 

provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping 

over a longer cord.

b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and 

may be used if care is exercised in their use.

c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply  cord or 

extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the 

appliance,

2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a 

grounding-type 3-wire cord, and

3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the 

countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped 

over.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified 

personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.

This product is for household use only.

•  Wash all removable parts as instructed in CARE AND CLEANING section of 

this manual.

•  Wipe outside of appliance with a damp cloth; dry thoroughly.

1.  Turn blending jar upside down and place flat on countertop or work 

surface.

2.  Place the gasket against the glass jar. 

Important: Gasket MUST be between the jar 

and blade assembly or the blender will not 

function properly.

3.  Place the blade assembly, blade first, into the 

jar. The gasket should be between the blade 

assembly and the blending jar 

(A).

4.  Place jar base onto jar and rotate clockwise 

until it is tight 

(B).

5.  Turn assembled jar right side up.

6.  Place lid with lid cap onto blending jar.

7.  Uncoil power cord from storage area under the 

base.

Note: Do not plug in the cord.

8.  Place jar assembly on base, making sure it is 

pressed firmly into place. (Jar base should not 

extend more than ¹⁄

8

-inch above the rim at the 

top of the base.) 

9.  Blender is now ready for use.

1.  Make sure appliance is OFF.

2.  Place foods to be blended into jar.

3.  Place lid on jar; make sure lid cap is in place.

4.  Plug power cord into outlet.

Note: When in use, do not leave blender unattended. When using hard foods, 

such as ice, cheese, nuts and coffee beans, keep one hand on the lid to keep 

blender in place.

5. 

6.  When blending thick mixtures, such as smoothies, power drinks and 

milkshakes press the Pulse button several times to begin the blending 

process. Press the Pulse button for no more than 5 seconds at a time. 

This helps break up the ice and distribute the ingredients.

7.  Open the lid cap to add ingredients while the blender is running and drop 

ingredients through the opening.

8.  When finished, press the Pulse/Off button. Make sure blades have 

completely stopped before attempting to remove the blending jar from 

the base.

9.  To remove the jar, grasp the handle and lift straight up. Do not twist the jar.

10.  Remove lid to pour.

11.  Always unplug the appliance when not in use.

•  Cut food into pieces no larger than ¾-inch for use in the blender.

•  When preparing foods that have several different kinds of ingredients, 

always add liquid ingredients first.

•  When ingredients splatter onto the sides of the jar or the mixture is very 

thick, press the OFF button to turn appliance off.  Remove the lid and use 

a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the jar and to redistribute 

the food pushing food toward the blades.  Replace the lid and continue 

blending.

•  The lid cap holds up to 1 oz. liquid and can be used as a measure and when 

adding ingredients such as juices, milk, cream and liquor.

•  When making bread crumbs, chopping nuts or grinding coffee beans make 

sure blending jar is completely dry.

•  When using PULSE function use short bursts.  Allow the blades to stop 

rotating between pulses. Do not use pulse for more than 2 minutes.

•  Use the PULSE button to begin the blending process when preparing 

beverages that include ice cubes; this helps to produce a smoother texture.

•  The PULSE function is helpful when short bursts of power are needed 

such as when preparing thick smoothies or milkshakes, chopping nuts or 

grinding coffee beans.

•  It is helpful to begin the blending process on the lowest speed and then 

increase to a higher speed, if necessary.

•  To stop blending, press the OFF button at any time

•  When blending hot liquids always let them cool at least 5 minutes before 

blending. Before beginning to blend, remove the lid cap and put it back 

with the opened side tilted away from you.  Cover lid with a cloth to avoid 

splattering and only use lowest speed. Do not blend more than 2½ to 3 

cups at a time.

•  DO NOT place any of the following in the blender:

-  Large pieces of frozen foods

-  Tough foods such as raw turnips, sweet potatoes and potatoes

- Bones

-  Hard salami, pepperoni and hard sausages

-  Boiling liquids (cool for 5 minutes before placing in blending jar)

•  Several other don’ts:

-  Do not operate blender without the lid on the blending jar

-  Do not store foods in the blending jar

-  Do not overfill the blender. (The blender is more efficient with less rather 

than more.)

-  Do not use pulse for more than 10 seconds at a time.  Release the 

PULSE button; allow the blender to rest briefly, then continue.

-  Do not run blender for longer than 30 seconds when using dry foods and 

2 minutes when blending liquids. Scrape down sides on blending jar, if 

necessary and continue blending.  

-  Do not use if blender jar is chipped or cracked

•  Tasks not recommended for the blender:

-  Whipping cream

-  Beating egg whites

-  Mixing dough

-  Mashing potatoes

-  Grinding meats

-  Extracting juice from fruits and vegetables

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified
