DOs and DON’Ts
WHEN USING YOUR BLENDER
Do:
• Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the
same voltage as that stated on the bottom of the
blender motor base.
• Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and dry
surface.
• Always add liquid ingredients to the blender
jar first, then add remaining ingredients. This
will ensure that ingredients are uniformly
mixed.
• Cut most foods into cubes approximately 1 inch
(2.5 cm) to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all
cheeses into pieces no larger than ½ inch (1.3
cm).
• Use the measured pour lid to measure liquid
ingredients such as alcohol. Replace measured
pour lid after ingredients have been added.
• Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only
when the blender is turned off. Never use metal
utensils, as damage may occur to the blender jar
or blade assembly.
• Place cover on firmly. Always operate the blender
with the cover on.
• Make sure removable blade assembly is tightly
attached to blender jar.
• Always remove blade assembly before cleaning.
• When scraping the blender jar with a spatula,
remove the food from the sides of the blender jar
and place food in the center of the blender jar,
over the blade assembly.
• When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest,
breadcrumbs, nuts, etc., make sure the blender
jar and blade assembly are completely dry.
• If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender
jar when blending, pulse in short bursts.
• Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses
so the blades stop rotating between pulses,
about 1-2 seconds.
Don’t:
• Don’t store food or liquids in the blender jar.
• Don’t place blade assembly on motor base
without the blender jar attached.
• Don’t attempt to mash potatoes, knead heavy
dough or beat egg whites.
• Don’t remove blender jar while unit is on. Keep
the blender jar cover on the blender jar while
blending.
• Don’t twist removable blade assembly from
blender jar when removing blender jar from motor
base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.
• Don’t overload blender. If the motor stalls, turn
the blender off immediately, unplug the unit and
remove a portion of the food, then continue.
• Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while
the motor is on.
• Don’t use any container or accessories not
recommended by Cuisinart. Doing so may result
in injury.
• Don’t put hands inside the blender jar when
blender is plugged in.
• Don’t add boiling liquids or frozen foods (except
ice cubes or ½-inch pieces of frozen fruit) to
blender jar. Boiling liquids should cool for
5 minutes before being poured into blender jar.
• Don’t run blender when jar is empty.
