the blender. Let the blender rest for approximately 15 minutes. Once
the resting period has elapsed, plug the power cord back into the outlet
and continue blending. If your blender does not function properly fol-
lowing this procedure, discontinue use and contact a certified Cuisinart
Consumer Service Center.
7. TIMING YOUR RECIPES:

features a 3-Minute Count
Up/Down Timer so that you can time your recipes and guarantee perfect
results. The timer begins counting Up or Down as soon as you push your
desired function. Speed or the timer can be set without selecting a pre-
programmed function. When the unit is turned on, press the up or down
time arrows, to set time as desired. Timer will count down when activated
on Low or High speed. Timer will count up if no time is selected. Note:
The unit’s short-term memory will save and display the new time selected
until the unit is turned off.
You can pause the timer by pausing the blending process. Do this by
pushing the button corresponding to the function you are currently using.
For example: If you are blending on Low and you push the Low function
button, the blender will stop blending and the timer will stop counting,
but the unit will remain on. To continue blending and timing your recipe,
push the function chosen (Low) again. The timer will also stop counting
when it reaches 3 minutes. The blender will go into Standby mode when
the timed cycle is finished. The timer will reset itself when the On/Off
button is pushed, a pre-programmed function is engaged or you change
functions.
