3. TO START BLENDING: Choose a speed for blending your

ingredients. Press the ON button for continuous blending. The

LED light will illuminate when the blender is on.

4. TO STOP BLENDING: To stop the blending process, push the

OFF button.

5. PULSE MODE: The pulse mode allows you to create a burst

of power for quick, efficient blending. To use the pulse

function, choose a speed for blending your ingredients. Push

and release the PULSE button. Repeat as desired. You

determine the duration of each pulse. While you are pulsing,

the LED indicator light will glow. 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 continuous power, or when processing items that do

not require an extended amount of blending.

6. TO CRUSH ICE: The SmartPower Basics

™

Blender motor

is strong enough to crush ice without liquid at any speed;

however, for your convenience, we have preset the best speed

for ice crushing. To give you greater control, the ice crush

function automatically operates as a pulse function. To crush

ice, place ice cubes in the blender jar, and place the cover

and the measured pour lid on the blender jar. Press the

ICE CRUSH button. Press the ICE CRUSH button in short

pulses until ice is crushed to desired consistency. See the

"Recipe Tips" section on page 7 for more details.

7. TO DISLODGE FOOD: Use a rubber or plastic spatula to help

remove food lodged around the cutting assembly. DO NOT

USE SPATULA UNTIL YOU HAVE TURNED THE BLENDER

OFF. Replace the cover and measured pour lid and continue

blending, if necessary. Make sure spatula is not inside the

blender jar before blending.

8. WHEN FINISHED BLENDING: Press the OFF button and

unplug the blender from the electrical outlet. Never remove the

blender jar off the motor base until the blender is off. Do not

twist locking ring off blender jar when removing jar from motor

base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base. Do not place

hands into blender jar with blender plugged in.
