OPERATION
1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart
®
PowerEdge
®
1.3 HP Blender on
a flat, sturdy surface. It is important that the surface be clean and dry.
Assemble the blender by following the Assembly instructions (page 4).
Once the jar is assembled and is in position on the motor base, plug the
Cuisinart
®
PowerEdge
®
1.3 HP Blender into an electrical outlet.
2. Add all necessary ingredients to the blender jar and replace the cover.
Make sure that the “pour” marking in the cover is aligned with the pour
spout. This will ensure smoother lifting of the lid. 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 in blender jar with blender plugged in.
Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of cover marked “lift” upward.
Lifting measured pour lid will not remove cover.
3. START BLENDING: Press the On/Off button. The red LED indicator light
will illuminate and flash, indicating that the blender is turned on but no
speed has been selected. This is Standby mode.
4. CHOOSE BLENDING SPEED: Press desired function to determine the
speed at which you would like to blend the ingredients. The indicator
light for the activated speed will glow. The blender will now be function-
ing at the desired speed. It is possible to switch speeds without pressing
the On/Off button by simply pushing another speed button.
Note: The Count Up
Timer will begin counting when the desired speed
button is pushed. When you switch into a pre-programmed speed, the
timer will reset to support the new command.
Note: At the end of the designated cycle, High or Low, the unit will go
into standby mode. To activate, press High or Low again to start a new
cycle.
5. TO PAUSE OR STOP BLENDING PROCESS
a) To Pause Blending Process: Push the button corresponding to
the speed at which you are currently blending. For example: If you
are blending on High speed, push the High speed button and the
blender will stop blending but the unit will remain on.
Note: By pausing the blending process, you will also pause the timer.
The timer will pause until you start blending again. Changing functions
will reset the timer.
b) To Stop the Blending Process: Push the On/Off button when you are
finished with your recipe and would like to turn the blender off. Pausing
will stop the blender but NOT turn it off.
Note: When you push the On/Off button to power the blender off, the timer
will stop counting and the LCD display will be off. When the blender is
turned back on and a speed button is pushed, the timer will begin to count
from 0:00.
6. 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 or work bowl and/or clear
any jams. Restart the unit as noted in the operating directions.
7. TIMING YOUR RECIPES: The PowerEdge
®
1.3 HP Blender features a
4-minute Count-Up
Timer so that you can time your recipes and guar-
antee perfect results. The timer begins counting from 0:00 as soon as
you push your desired function. The timer will continue to count up even
if you change speeds during blending. You can pause the timer by paus-
ing the blending process. Do this by pushing the button corresponding to
the function at which you are currently blending.
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 count-
ing when it reaches 4:00 minutes, and an audible chime will sound. 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-pro-
grammed function is engaged or you change functions.
8. PRE-PROGRAMMED FUNCTIONS: Pulse, Smoothie and Ice Crush are
programmed based on extensive testing in our kitchen and engineering
lab. As part of their programming, the blender will pause between
bursts and cycles. This is normal and by design. Programs run for
20 to 60 seconds.
a) Auto Pulse Mode: The pre-programmed Pulse mode creates a
burst of power for quick, efficient blending. To use the Auto Pulse,
from the Standby (On/Off) mode, push Pulse and the red LED
indicator will flash. Then choose High or Low for auto-pulsing for
up to 2 minutes. The pre-programmed sequences of short bursts
with two- second intervals will commence. The Auto Pulse func-
tion can be used to break apart larger pieces of food or to control
the texture of food when chopping. The Auto Pulse function is
also effective in starting the blending process when you do not
