OPERATION

1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart

PowerEdge

700-Watt 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

PowerEdge

700-Watt Blender into an electrical outlet.

2. Add all necessary ingredients to the blender jar, and replace the cover.

Make sure that the triangle icon 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 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 functioning 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.

5. Pulse Mode: The Pulse mode allows you to create a burst of power for

quick, efficient blending. To use the Pulse function, push the

On/Off button and the red LED indicator light will flash. Push the Pulse

button and the Pulse LED indicator light will blink. Push and release the

desired speed button. Repeat as desired. While pulsing, the LED indica-

tor Pulse light will remain solid while the function button is pressed. The

Pulse function can be used to break apart larger pieces of food or to

control the texture of food when chopping. The Pulse function is also

effective in starting the blending process when you do not want continu-

ous power, or when processing items that do not require an extended

amount of blending.

Note: The timer will count when you push Pulse and hold down the func-

tion button. The timer will pause when you release the function button. It

will reset if you press Pulse again.

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 and/or clear any

jams. Restart the unit as noted in the operating directions.

7. 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.

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.

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.

8. Timing Your Recipes: The PowerEdge

700-Watt Blender features a

3-minute Count-Up

™

Timer so that you can time your recipes and guar-

antee perfect results. The timer begins counting from 0 as soon as you

push your desired speed: High, Low, Pulse, Purée or Soups & Sauces.

The timer will continue to count up even if you change speeds during

blending. You can pause the timer by pausing the blending process. Do

this by pushing the button corresponding to the speed at which you are

currently blending. For example: If you are blending in Low speed and

you push the Low speed 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 again. The timer will

also stop counting when it reaches 3:00 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

different speed is selected or a pre-programmed function is engaged.

9. Pre-Programmed Recipes: Smoothie and Ice Crush are both

programmed based on extensive testing in our kitchen. As part of their

programming, the blender will pause between burst and cycles. This

is normal and by design.

a) Start Smoothie by powering the unit On and pressing Smoothie. The

LED backlight will illuminate and a 30-second count-up program will

begin. Not smooth enough for your liking? After the cycle stops, the

unit will go into standby. Press the smoothie button again to start a
