Motor horsepower for the blender motor was measured using a dynamometer, a machine
that laboratories routinely use to measure the mechanical power of motors. Our 3.5 peak
horsepower (HP) motor reference reects the horsepower output of the motor itself and
not the Blender’s horsepower output in the blender jar. As with any blender, the power
output in the blender jar is not the same as the horsepower of the motor itself. This
motor delivers 2.45 peak HP in the blender jar, enabling your Blender to deliver robust
power for all your recipes.

COMMERCIAL BLENDER SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put Blender in water
or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate the Blender with a damaged cord or plug or after appliance
malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance
to the nearest Authorized Service Center for examination, repair, or electrical
or mechanical adjustment. If the supply cord or plug is damaged, it must be
replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or
service agent.
7. Do not use outdoors.
8. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

10. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
11. The use of attachments, including canning blender jars, not recommended
by KitchenAid may cause a risk of injury to persons.
12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13. Always operate Blender with cover in place.
14. When blending hot liquids or ingredients, ingredient-measuring cup should
remain in place over the lid opening. Always start on lowest speed and
slowly ramp to desired speed when blending hot liquids or ingredients.

USING THE COMMERCIAL BLENDER
The Blender has a preset recipe program: Coulis Cycle. It also features Variable Speeds
and Pulse functions that allow you to customize your blending for any recipe you make.
To clean the Blender: Quick pulses of power and high speeds work to clean the blender
jar with just 2 cups of water and a drop of dish soap.

COULIS
Blends fluid gels into a smooth mixture. A series of pulses
and speeds run before the unit gradually ramps up to full

escape from the fluid. For best results, cut or crumble gel
into 1/2'' cubes before blending. Limit gel to 500-1000
grams. Do not exceed 1000 grams in the jar. You may need
to use the tamper for thicker fluid gels.
