OPERATION
1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart
®
SmartPower Classic
™
Blender onto a flat, sturdy surface. It is important that the surface
be clean and dry. Assemble the blender by following the assembly
instructions. Once the jar is assembled and is in position on the
motor base, plug the Cuisinart
®
SmartPower Classic
™
Blender into
an electrical outlet.
2. Add all necessary ingredients to the blender jar, and replace the
cover. You may add more ingredients by lifting the measured pour
lid and dropping ingredients through the fill area. Replace the
measured pour lid after adding ingredients. Do not place hands
into blender jar with blender plugged in. “ON” light will flash
when unit is plugged in.
