are damaged, do not use them. Call our toll-free customer service number to
obtain replacement parts.

- Press and hold the ON button for 15 to 30 seconds or pulse the ON button until the desired consistency.
- Unplug.
To remove the jar, turn clockwise and lift.
Notes:
- Do not chop or process hard foods such as cheese, crackers, or meat.
- If the blending action stops during blending or ingredients stick to the sides of the jar, turn the blender OFF. Remove the lid and use a rubber spatula to push the mixture toward the blades.
- Do not process hot foods or liquids in a blender.
- Do not store food or liquids in the blender jar.

Care and Cleaning
WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard:
Disconnect power before cleaning. Do not immerse the cord, plug, or base in
any liquid.

- Wash the blender jar and drinking lid in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry.
- Wipe the blender base and cord with a damp cloth or sponge. To remove stubborn spots, use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser.
- Store the cord in the back of the base.
Troubleshooting
- Does not blend well. Not enough liquid was added to the jar. For correct blending, you need to add 1/2 to 1 cup (118-236 ml) of liquid (milk, juice, yogurt) before adding other ingredients.
- Pieces of ice or frozen fruits are stuck under the blade. Take the jar off of the base and shake. Place on base and blend, or add more liquid. Blending fresh fruit requires less liquid than blending frozen fruit.
