using your blender
Ensure that the appliance is switched off and unplugged from the supply socket
if it is left unattended and before assembling, disassembling or cleaning.
The blades have very sharp edges. Take care when handling or cleaning them.
Never attempt to t the blade assembly onto the motor unit by itself.
Do not operate your blender continuously for more than 30 seconds without giving
it a rest period of one minute. Never process hot or boiling liquids. Allow them to
cool before processing.
1. Add the ingredients to the bottle. Don’t ll the bottle above the 600ml mark (or 300ml
mark if you are using 300ml bottles).
2. Fit the blade assembly onto the bottle. Tighten the blade assembly rmly.
3. Turn the bottle upside down so that the blade assembly is at the bottom then line up
the symbol on the blade assembly with the symbol on the rim of the motor unit.
4. Gently press the bottle downwards then twist it clockwise until the symbol on
the blade assembly is aligned with the symbol on the rim of the motor unit. Your
blender will not work unless the bottle is correctly locked into position.
5. Press and hold the blend button to operate your blender. You can either press and
hold the button or use short pulses until your drink is at the desired consistency.
6. When you have nished blending your drink, and the blades have stopped rotating,
twist the bottle anticlockwise until the symbol is aligned with the symbol and
remove the bottle and blade assembly. Turn the bottle the right side up then unscrew
the blade assembly and t one of the resealable lids onto the bottle. Close the cap of
the resealable lid rmly until it 'clicks'.
Notes: If the ingredients become stuck around the blade during processing, simply
remove the bottle from the motor unit, give it a shake then ret it and carry on processing.
Always remove the bottle when attempting to agitate or otherwise redistribute the
ingredients.
For ease of cleaning, we recommend that you clean your blend active bottle and cap as
soon as you have nished using them.
Crushing ice
Your blender can be used to crush ice. For best results and to prevent possible damage
to the blades, always add a small amount of liquid to the ice before processing. The liquid
can be water or one of the liquid ingredients from your recipe (fruit juice, etc.).

Ideal for children.
Quantities in the recipe are for the 600ml bottle.
The recipe quantities can be halved and made in the 300ml bottle.
Smoothies and shakes often separate if not consumed immediately after blending.
However, they can be re‑blended and consumed within 30 minutes if necessary.
Ingredients
Peanut butter—a great protein shake ingredient. Try and source an unsweetened
variety.
Frozen berries—now widely available in larger supermarkets. Look out for special
packs of frozen smoothie mixes too.
Protein powder—a concentrated form of protein. Used as a dietary supplement, protein
powder can be added to drinks, sprinkled on cereal, stirred into soups and stews, or
cooked into baked goods and other meals. Available from most large supermarkets or
health shops.
Almond Milk—a healthy alternative to cow’s milk.
Soya Milk—can be used as a skimmed milk replacement in all of our recipes.
To make a recipe...
Simply add the ingredients in the recipe to the bottle and blend until thick and smooth.
Remember to halve the ingredients if you are using the 300ml bottle.
