HINTS FOR SETTING SPEEDS
Always start the machine with the left switch down in the Variable ( ) position
and with the center Variable Speed Dial on 1. Slowly turn the Variable Speed
Dial to the desired speed depending on the recipe used. If a recipe calls for
processing on High
(
)
, slowly rotate the Variable Speed Dial to 10 and then
push the High/Variable Switch up into the High
(
)
position. Do not begin
processing on Variable 10 or directly on the High
(
)
setting.
Process on the High
(
)
setting for as much of the processing time as possible
to make whole food juices, soups, shakes, frozen mixtures, purées, nut butters
and for grinding grains. Processing times will generally be less than one
minute (most take less than 30 seconds). High
(
)
speed provides the best
quality of refinement, breaking down ice, frozen fruit, whole fruits or vegetables,
and grains to a smooth lump-free consistency.
TiP: Blending too long at too low a speed setting will overheat the machine
and cause the Automatic Overload Protection to turn the machine off. Use the
High
(
)
speed as often as possible to achieve the most uniform consistency.
Blending on High
(
)
speed also maximizes the motor’s cooling fan to avoid
overheating.
When on the High
(
)
, if the food does not circulate, the machine may be
overloaded or may have trapped an air bubble. Carefully remove the lid
plug while making sure the lid stays firmly in place. Release the air bubble
by inserting the tamper through the lid plug opening. If circulation problems
continue, reduce the machine speed. A lower speed may allow food to circulate
when a higher speed does not. Once the food is circulating freely, increase the
speed back to High
(
)
and continue processing.
CAUTION
Never Start on Speeds Above 1 with
Hot Liquids to Avoid Possible Burns.
Escaping steam, splashes or contents
may scald.
To secure the contents,
lock the lid and lid
plug securely in place prior to operating
the machine.
Always start on Variable 1, slowly increase
to 10.
