• 

Put liquids into the blender first unless recipes call for an alternate 
blending sequence. 

• 

Allow soup mixtures and cooked ingredients to cool before pouring into jar 
for blending. 

• 

Do not allow the motor to stall. If necessary, turn off and unplug from electrical 
outlet immediately. Pour half of the contents out of the jar before resuming 
processing. It may be necessary to add liquid to process the ingredients.  

• 

Do not store food or liquids in jar. 

• 

If the blender turns too slowly, or seems to labor, increase the speed setting or 
remove some of the contents. Do not allow the blendor to labor more than a few 
seconds as burnout can occur. 

• 

In the event the blades become jammed with ingredients, turn off and unplug 
blender from electrical outlet. Pour contents into a holding bowl or jar. Follow 
instructions on cleaning and assembly sections of this manual to restore blender 
to operation. 

• 

Be careful not to overprocess ingredients. Stop frequently to check the 
consistency. If necessary, divide ingredients in half and process separately for 
better control over consistency. 

• 

To add foods when blender is operating, remove cover centerpiece from 
container cover and add ingredients through the opening. 

• 

Do not try to mash potatoes, mix stiff dough, grind raw meat, whip egg whites or 
extract juices from fruits and vegetables. The blender is not made to perform 
these tasks.
