motor to run continuously for more than 30 seconds. This

It may be necessary with some foods to stop the unit, and
re-distribute the food before continuing. Always unplug
the appliance before removing the lid.
PULSE MODE: To get finely chopped food, operate the
appliance with several very short presses of the operating
