smoothies, frozen cocktails, and milkshakes. Mixing – Batters for pancakes,
muffins and quick bread are mixed in seconds. Pureeing – Dishes such as
hummus, all-natural soups, and baby food are creamy and smooth in seconds.
Shaving ice and Frozen Fruits – For tasty treats such as snow cones or fruit
sorbets.
Grinding Blade assembly with small jug Grinding – harder, single-
ingredient items such as coffee beans, nuts, dried fruit.
-
Ensure the product is unplugged from the electrical outlet.
-
Pour liquid ingredients into the jug, wash all solid ingredients and cut them into small pieces, and put them into the jug. If grinding, simply put the coffee beans, nuts, or dried fruit into the jug.
NOTE: Do not overfill! To avoid spilling, do not add ingredients past the “Max” fill line. -
Screw the blade assembly on the jug tightly, aligning the tabs on the jug with the motor base, then push into the motor base and rotate clockwise until you hear a “click” sound
-
Plug the product into a standard 220-240V~ electrical outlet, and the appliance will start working at once.
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. If the appliance stopped working during use, unplug the appliance and let it rest for 6 minutes, then the appliance will be ready for work again.
NOTE: If the blades are not operating smoothly, stop the product and add some liquid, or reduce the contents in the jug. Tips: If you want to use ice crush or pulse function, align the tabs on the jug with the motor base, push down and lose the jug until you get satisfied with the ice or food. -
When you have reached your desired consistency, stop the appliance by turning the jug
counterclockwise and take it straight up to remove. -
Disassemble the jug from the blade assembly.
-
Twist the lip ring onto the jug and enjoy your drinks or take out the powdered ingredient after grinding.
-
Make sure that the motor base is disconnected from mains power when not in use.
NOTE: The blender has a built-in safety lock feature, this ensures that you
can only switch ON the appliance while the jug and the blade assembly are
assembled on the motor base securely.
IMPORTANT: In the base of each blade’s collar, there is a silicone gasket
seal that creates an airtight fit with the jugs. After washing and before each
use, always check to make sure the gasket is properly in place.
WARNING! To prevent product overheating, dry ingredients must not be
processed for more than 30 seconds at a time.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEMS | POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS |
---|---|
The motor doesn’t start or the attachment doesn’t rotate. | For the jug, make |
sure that the tabs are seated in the slots and turned clockwise.
Food is unevenly chopped.| You are chopping too much food at one time, or you
are not pulsing properly. Reduce the amount of food in the jug.
Food is too finely chopped or too watery| The food has been over-processed.
Use short operating for best results.
You cannot achieve snow from ice cubes.| For the best results use ice straight
from the freezer. Try using short operating instead of a long one.
Make sure the jug is completely dry before adding ice.
Jug is leaking| Make sure that your blade assembly is properly assembled to
the jug. Leaking may occur if it is misaligned when twisted onto the jug. Turn
the blade assembly tightly clockwise.
Unit doesn’t turn on| Make sure the unit is plugged in.
Make sure the blade assembly is properly assembled to the jug and that is not
misaligned.
Unit doesn’t turn off| Unplug the power cord from the electrical power outlet
and call Kmart customer service for support.
Doesn’t mix well| Pulse ingredients for best results. Press down on the jug in
short intervals for even blending and chopping. For frozen ingredients, pulse
in short intervals of 2-5 seconds and repeat.
Blade assembly will not properly align to the jug| Set the jug on a level
surface. Place the blade assembly on top of the jug and align the threads so
that the blade sits flat on the jug. Twist clockwise so that the blade aligns
to the jug until you have a tight seal.
CLEANING AND STORAGE
- Clean the blender after each use.
- Remove the power cord from the power outlet socket and ensure the appliance is thoroughly cooled before cleaning.
- Clean the motor base with a damp cloth or sponge. Wipe dry with a soft dry cloth.
- Wash all the other parts except the motor base in warm, soapy water, and then rinse and dry thoroughly. Use caution when handling the blade assemblies as the blades are very sharp.
CAUTION: Do not try to remove blades from the assembly for cleaning.
Tips: Use a small brush (not included) to remove particles of food lodged
underneath the blades. If some leftover particles dry onto the inside of the
jug, fill the cup about 2/3 full with warm water and attach the blade
assembly. Place the jug and blade assembly onto the motor base and operate the
appliance for about 20-30 seconds to help loosen the stuck ingredients. Repeat
the above step but use clean tap water. Empty blender and dry thoroughly.
- Make sure all components are clean and dried thoroughly before storing.
- Store the appliance upright in a clean and dry location. Do not place anything on top. Store the jugs and the rest of the attachments alongside the appliance where they will not be damaged and won’t cause a hazard.
