You can use your Smoothie Blender
for making delicious and nutritious
cold drinks. The dispensing lid
means that the goblet can easily be
converted into a travel mug.
A selection of recipes can be found
at the back of the instructions, and
the handy markings on the mug
allow you to mix ingredients of your
choice. Combinations of fruit and
yoghurt (both fresh and frozen), ice
cream, ice cubes, juice and milk can
be used.
before using your Kenwood
appliance
●Read these instructions carefully and
retain for future reference.
●Remove all packaging and any
labels.
●Wash the parts: see ‘care &
cleaning’.
safety
●Switch off and unplug:
●●before fitting and removing parts
●●after use
●●before cleaning.
●Never let the power unit, cord or
plug get wet.
●Never use a damaged machine. Get
it checked or repaired : see ‘service’.
●Never use an unauthorised

●Always wait until the blades have
completely stopped before removing
the mug from the power unit.
●The unit may also be used for
making soups. Liquids should be
allowed to cool to room temperature
before blending.
●Never blend hot ingredients or drink
any hot liquids from the travel mug.
●When drinking through the lid, take
care that the drink is smooth. Some
experimentation may be necessary
to achieve the desired result,
particularly when processing firm or
unripened foods as you may find
that some ingredients remain
unprocessed.
●Always take care when handling the
blade assembly and avoid touching
the cutting edge of the blades when
cleaning.
●Only use the Smoothie Blender with
the blade assembly supplied.
●Always use the Smoothie Blender on
a secure, dry level surface.
●Never place the appliance on or near
a hot gas or electric burner or where
it could come into contact with a
heated appliance.
●Misuse of your Smoothie Blender
can result in injury.
●This appliance is not intended for
use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of

●Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the

before plugging in
●Make sure your electricity supply is
the same as the one shown on the
underside of the machine.
Important – UK only
●The wires in the cord are coloured
as follows:
Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live.
●The appliance must be protected by
a 3A approved (BS1362) fuse.
Note:
●For non-rewireable plugs the fuse
cover MUST be refitted when
replacing the fuse. If the fuse cover is
lost then the plug must not be used
until a replacement can be obtained.
The correct fuse cover is identified by
colour and a replacement may be
obtained from your Kenwood
Authorised Repairer (see Service).
●If a non-rewireable plug is cut off it
must be DESTROYED
IMMEDIATELY. An electric shock
hazard may arise if an unwanted
non-rewireable plug is inadvertently
inserted into a 13A socket outlet.
●This appliance conforms to EC
directive 2004/108/EC on
Electromagnetic Compatibility and
EC regulation no. 1935/2004 of

hints & tips
●Note that when the mug is filled to
max capacity (500ml), this is
approximately two servings.
●If you don’t intend to consume your
smoothie drink immediately, keep it
refrigerated.
●Ensure your smoothie drink is thin
enough to be able to drink from the
dispensing lid. To make a thinner
smoothie drink add more liquid.
●Once your smoothie drink has
reached the desired consistency,
you can use the pulse ‘P’ to ensure
all ingredients are thoroughly
blended. Use the pulse ‘P’ to
operate the power unit in a start
stop action to control the texture of
your drink.
●After blending, some drinks may not
be completely smooth due to seeds
or the fibrous nature of ingredients.
●Some drinks may separate on
standing, therefore it’s best to drink
them straight away. Separated
drinks should be stirred before
drinking.
important
●Never blend dry ingredients (eg
spices, nuts) or run the Smoothie
Blender empty.
●Don’t use the Smoothie Blender as
a storage container whilst on the
power unit.
●Some liquids increase in volume and
froth during blending e.g milk, so do
not overfill and ensure the blade
assembly is correctly fitted.
●To ensure long life of your Smoothie
Blender, never run it continuously for
longer than 30 seconds.
●Never blend food that has formed a
solid mass during freezing, break it
up before adding to the mug.
●Never blend more than the max
capacities marked on the mug.
●When the dispensing lid is fitted
always keep the travel mug upright.
care & cleaning
●Always switch off, unplug and
dismantle before cleaning.
●Never let the power unit, cord or
plug get wet.
●Always wash immediately after use.
Don’t let food dry onto the mug
assembly as this will make cleaning
difficult.
●Don’t wash any part in the
dishwasher.
