BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST
3
• Installation of a residual
current device (a standard
safety switch on your wall
socket) is recommended to
provide additional safety
protection when using
appliances. It is advisable
that a safety switch (with
a rated residual operating
current not more than
30mA) be installed in the
electrical circuit supplying
the appliance. Contact
your electrician for further
professional advice.
• In order to avoid the possible
hazard of the blender starting
by itself due to inadvertent
resetting of the overload
protector on the motor, do not
attach an external switching
device (such as a timer) or
connect the blender to a
circuit that can regularly
switch the blender on and off.
• Do not operate appliance
with a damaged cord or
plug, or after appliance
malfunctions, or if dropped
or damaged in any way. Stop
use immediately and contact
Breville by phone or email for
replacement or repair.
• Regularly inspect the blade
assembly for damage.
If the blade has become
loose, wobbly or makes
any abnormal noise when
blending, stop using the unit.
Send the product to a Service
Agent for inspection.

BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST
SAFEGUARDS FOR
YOUR BLENDER
• Wash the blender jug with
warm soapy water before
first use.
• Use only the blender jug
and lid that is supplied with
this blender. The use of
attachments or accessories
not manufactured or
specified by Breville may
cause the risk of fire,
electrical shock, or injury.
• Always ensure the blender
is assembled properly
before using. Lid must be
firmly secured to the jug
before operation to ensure
internal contents do not
escape, spray or overflow.
• If the motor is straining
under a heavy load, do
not operate continuously
for more than 10 seconds.
Allow the motor to rest
for 1 minute between uses
on heavy loads. Note that
none of the recipes in these
instructions are considered
a heavy load.
• Do not leave the blender
unattended when in use.
• Keep hands, fingers, hair
and clothing away from the
blender during use. Always
turn blender off and unplug
at the wall before reaching
inside. Avoid touching
moving parts.
• Be careful when handling
the blender jug as the
blades are very sharp. Be
careful when emptying the
jug and during cleaning.
Mishandling of the blades
may cause injury.
• Do not remove the jug
from the motor base while
blender is in use.
• The blender is intended for
food or drinks preparation.
Do not use for anything
other than food or drinks.
Do not operate without
any ingredients in the
blender jug.
• Never attempt to operate
with damaged blades, or
with utensils, or any
foreign objects inside the
blender jug.
• To reduce the risk of severe
injury to persons or damage
to the blender, keep hands
and utensils out of the jug
while blending.

for example placing a cold
jug into hot water, or
vice versa.
• Before moving the blender,
cleaning or putting it away
for storage, always turn
blender off and unplug at
the wall.
• Always disconnect the
appliance from the supply
if it is left unattended

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT
USING THE BLENDER
• Ensure the speed selection dial is in the
‘0’ position. Insert the power cord into a
230/240V power outlet and switch on.
• When using the blender for the first
time, you may notice an odour coming
from the motor. This is normal and will
dissipate with use.
• Remove the lid and add food and/or
liquid into the blender jug. Fill the jug
before placing onto the motor base, to
prevent spillage onto the base.
• Always secure the lid firmly in place
before blending, making sure the inner
cap is also in place.
• Select the desired speed by turning the
speed selection dial clockwise to either
the LOW SPEED or HIGH SPEED
setting. The speed can be changed at
any time during blending.
• Turn the speed selection dial anti-
clockwise to select the pulse/ice setting.
• During the blending process, some
ingredients may stick to the sides of the
blender jug. To push the food back into
the blades, turn the speed selection dial
to the ‘0’ position and switch off at the
power outlet. Remove the lid and use a
plastic spatula to scrape down the sides
of the blender jug. Replace the lid before
recommencing blending.
• At the end of use, always ensure the
speed selection dial is turned to the ‘0’
position. Then switch the appliance
off at the power outlet and unplug the
power cord.
• LOW SPEED: Suitable for savoury dips,
thin batters and soups.
• HIGH SPEED: Suitable for smoothies,
cocktails, drinks, sauces and pesto.
• PULSE|ICE: can be used for foods that
require short bursts of power to process
such as herbs, nuts (pesto), small
vegetables and ice. When using the
PULSE|ICE function, hold the blender
lid in place.

Jug and lid
In order to keep your jug clean and avoid
food drying on the blades and jug, follow the
below steps as soon as possible after use:
• Rinse most of the ingredients off the jug
and lid.
• 500ml of warm water and turn the
dial to HIGH speed for 60 seconds. If
thick or sticky ingredients require extra
cleaning power add a few drops of dish
liquid detergent.
• Rinse the jug and lid again and/or wash
separately in warm soapy water with a
soft cloth or bottle brush.
• It is most effective to clean the jug
immediately after use.
Motor base
To clean the motor base, wipe with a soft,
damp cloth then dry thoroughly. Wipe any
excess food particles from the power cord.
Cleaning agents
Do not use abrasive scouring pads or
cleaners on either the motor base or the jug,
as they may scratch the surface. Use only
warm soapy water with a soft cloth.
Dishwasher
The blender jug and lid can be washed in
the dishwasher on a standard wash cycle.
Jug can be placed on the bottom shelf,
however the lid and inner measuring cap
should be washed on the top shelf only.
Stubborn food stains and odours
Strong smelling foods such as garlic, fish
and some vegetables such as carrots may
leave an odour or stain on the blender jug
and lid. To remove, soak blender jug and lid
for 5 minutes in warm soapy water. Then
wash with a mild detergent and warm water,
rinse well and dry thoroughly. Store jug with
the lid off.
Storage
Store your blender upright with the blender
jug assembled on the motor base, or beside
it. Do not place anything on top. To allow air
to circulate, keep the lid off.

HINTS & TIPS
HINTS & TIPS
• If the volume (while blending) is below
the maximum line, the inner measuring
cap can be removed and oils/liquids can
be added while blender is in use.
• Use PULSE when food is too thick
or coarse to circulate within the
blender jug.
• Do not exceed the maximum mark when
adding foods and liquids into
the blender.
• Ingredients may stick to the sides of
the blender jug. To push food back onto
the blades, turn the blender off and
unplug at the wall. Use a plastic spatula
to scrape down the sides of the jug, and
continue blending.
• If any moisture or liquid appears on top
of the motor base during blending, turn
the blender off and unplug at the wall.
Remove the blender jug, and wipe motor
base immediately with a dry cloth or
paper towel.
• The maximum amount of ice cubes that
the blender can process is 1 cup.
DO’S AND DON'TS
The Do’s
• Use a combination of the blending and
pulse to suit the foods being processed.
• Use PULSE for foods that only require
short bursts of power, such as nuts, dried
fruit, other dry ingredients, and also
crushing ice.
• When blending drinks with ice cubes or
frozen fruit, use PULSE in short bursts.
• Thicker mixtures puree more efficiently
if the jug is 1/4 to 1/2 full.
The Don’ts
• Do not use metal utensils, as they may
damage the blades or blender jug.
• Do not blend a heavy mixture or dry
ingredients for more than 10 seconds.
For normal blending tasks, do not
blend longer than 1 minute at a time.
If you need to blend longer, turn off
the blender and stir ingredients before
starting again. This rest will help protect
the motor from wear and tear.
• The blender will not knead dough, or
mash potatoes.
• When blending warm ingredients, do
not put more than 2 cups at a time in.
Once blending has started, you can add
another 1 cup slowly by removing the
inner lid and pouring through the hole.
• Do not blend hot or boiling ingredients.
Allow food to cool down to a warm state
before placing in the blender. This is
to safeguard against sudden bursts of
steam that are caused by blending hot
ingredients, and it also protects the jug
from possible damage.
