supply extension cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The 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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Remove and discard all packaging materials and check to ensure that all parts and
accessories are accounted for. Read and remove all removable stickers.
2. Wash and dry all attachments and accessories in warm, soapy water to remove any
packaging debris. Rinse well and dry thoroughly. All attachments and accessories,
except for the motor base, are also top-rack only dishwasher safe. WARNING: The
mixing blades are sharp. Handle them by their collars when assembling and cleaning
the blender. Failure to do so can result in personal injury.
3. Wipe down the motor base with a damp cloth; the motor base is not dishwasher safe.
WARNING: Never immerse the motor base or cord in water.
HOW TO BLEND USING THE BLENDING PITCHER
When blending large amounts, reach for the blending pitcher. Both the pitcher and the
tumblers are made of sturdy, BPA-free plastic.
1. With blender unplugged, set motor base on a at surface.
2. Choose the blade you want to use:
• For processing softer ingredients in sauces, soups, and smoothies, use the
emulsifying blade, which looks like an X.
• For processing harder ingredients, such as chopping nuts and grinding coffee
beans, choose the grinding blade. NOTE: The grinding blade should only be used
with dry foods; do not use it for ice.
3. Check that the white sealing ring is tted into the collar of the blade; this creates an
airtight seal.
4. Holding the blade attachment by its collar, screw it on to the bottom of the pitcher
and turn it clockwise to tighten.

7
5. Add the ingredients to be blended to the pitcher up to the “Max” line.
WARNING: To avoid leaking and/or personal injury, never ll past the “Max” line as
foods, especially liquids, rise in the pitcher when blended.
6. Secure the lid on the pitcher by twisting it clockwise. If ller cap is not in already, insert
it into lid and twist clockwise until you hear a click to seal. (You can remove the ller
cap during blending to add ingredients.)
7. Position the pitcher on the base by inserting the blade attachment collar into the motor
base and tting the locking tabs on the blade attachment into the slots on the motor
base. Press the pitcher rmly down into the base, then turn clockwise until the blade
attachment tabs lock securely in position.
8. Plug in the blender and press a speed button (HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW, or PULSE) to
begin blending. (See p. 9 for more information on speeds.)
WARNING: Do not operate the motor continuously for more than 1 minute at a time.
Allow the motor to rest for 3 minutes before continuing.
9. Press the OFF button to stop blending. (If using the pulse function, the unit will turn off
when the PULSE button is released.)
10. Remove the blending pitcher from base by rotating it counterclockwise.

HOW TO BLEND IN A TUMBLER
For smaller amounts, for blending and storing, or for making smoothie drinks to go, use a
tumbler.
1. Follow steps 1-3 from How to Blend in the Blending Pitcher on p. 6.
2. Add ingredients to tumbler; do not exceed the “Max” line.
3. Holding the blade attachment by its collar, screw it on to the open end of the
tumbler and turn it clockwise to tighten. NOTE: The blade attachment goes on what
will be the top of the tumbler after blending is done.
4. Position the tumbler on the base by inserting the blade attachment collar into the
motor base and fitting the locking tabs on the blade attachment into the slots on the
motor base. Press the tumbler firmly down into the base, then turn clockwise until
the blade attachment tabs lock securely in position.
5. Plug in the blender and press a speed button (HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW, or PULSE)
to begin blending. (See p. 9 for more information on speeds.) WARNING: Do not
operate the motor continuously for more than 1 minute at a time. Allow the motor to
rest for 3 minutes before continuing.
6. Press the OFF button to stop blending. (If using the pulse function, the unit will
turn off when the PULSE button is released.)
7. Remove the tumbler from the base by turning blade attachment counterclockwise,
then flip tumbler over so that the blade attachment is facing up. Twist the blade
collar counterclockwise, and then lift blade attachment up and out of the tumbler.
8. If drinking straight from the tumbler, press the tumbler comfort ring onto the lip
of the tumbler. If taking the tumbler on the road, put on the travel lid. If storing the
contents in the tumbler, put on the storage lid.

BLADE SPEED
Low
• Use low speed for lighter mixtures and creamy toppings. Ideal for mayonnaise,
whipped cream, salad dressings, soups, sauces, and shakes. Generally used with the
emulsifying blade.
Medium
• Use medium and the emulsifying blade for perfectly blended smoothies, fruit and
vegetable purees, hummus, and bean dips. Use medium with the grinding blade to
chop softer ingredients like onions, ginger, and garlic.
•
High
• Use high speed with the emulsifying blade to uniformly blend thick fruits and
vegetables. Or use high speed with the grinding blade to chop or grind harder
ingredients, such as coffee beans, nuts, cinnamon sticks. NOTE: Grinding blade should
only be used with dry foods.
Pulse
• Use pulse function for short bursts of high power or for coarse chopping and
blending any food, especially when you want to be careful about over-blending. Pulse
is only activated for as long as the button is pressed and ends when pulse button is
released.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Do not operate the motor continuously for more than 1 minute at a time.
Allow the motor to rest for 3 minutes before continuing.
HOW TO CRUSH ICE

½and ¼cup respectively for tall and short tumblers, then attach emulsifying blade.
4. Attach container to base; put on lid if necessary.
5. Press PULSE button six times, then blend continuously on high speed for several
seconds.
6. Check contents and, if necessary, add more liquid and continue to process until all
cubes are reduced to the desired consistency.
