OPERATION
1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart
®
VELOCITY
600-Watt Blender on a flat, sturdy surface.
It is important that the surface be clean and
dry. Assemble the blender jar by following the
Assembly Instructions. Once the jar is assembled
and is in position on the motor base, plug the unit
into an electrical outlet.
2.
Put all necessary ingredients into 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
put hands into blender jar with blender plugged in.
Note: Add liquid ingredients first, then follow with
solid ingredients. This will provide more consistent
blending and prevent unnecessary stress on the
motor.
Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of
cover upward. Lifting measured pour lid will not
remove cover.
3. Start Blending
Turn dial to LOW or HIGH Speed. Blender will run
until dial is turned to OFF.
Pulse mode: Turn dial to PULSE and alternately
“pulse and release” in short bursts until ingredients
have reached desired consistency.
To crush ice: The VELOCITY 600-Watt Blender motor
is strong enough to crush ice without liquid. Place ice
cubes in the blender jar. Turn dial to HIGH and run
until ice is crushed to desired consistency. Turn dial
to OFF.
To stop blending process:
Simply turn dial to OFF.
To dislodge food: Use a rubber or plastic
spatula to help remove food lodged around the
removable blade assembly. Do not use spatula
until you have turned the blender off. Replace the
cover and measured pour lid and continue blend
-
ing, if necessary. Make sure spatula is not inside
the blender jar before blending.
To reset the unit: This appliance features an
advanced resettable thermal fuse. In the event
of an overload condition, the unit will shut down
to protect the motor from overheating. To reset
the appliance when this happens, unplug the
unit and let it cool for a minimum of 15 minutes.
Then, reduce the contents of the blender jar and/
or clear any jams. Restart the unit as noted in the
operating directions.
When finished blending: Turn dial to OFF and
unplug the blender from the electrical outlet. Never
remove the blender jar from the motor base until
the blender is off. Do not remove blade assembly
from blender jar when removing jar from motor
base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.
Do not put hands into blender jar with blender
plugged in.
