NOTE: The rubberized grip is free of natural rubber and

latex. It is safe for use by individuals allergic or sensitive to these materials.

7. BL500/BL600 Series: When finished blending, push the Off/Pulse button. For the BL700 Series: Turn the Dial to “O” when finished blending. 8. To remove the Jar, grasp the Handle, twist toward the unlock ( ) and lift it from the Unit Base. For most models, remove the Lid before pouring. For models with the dual spouts, use the easy pour side for regular pouring (drinks, soups, dips, etc.); use the strainer spout when pouring beverages (such as homemade Sangria or lemonade) to hold back the garnishes or foods such as sauce or salsa to hold back vegetable pieces.

BLENDING TIPS AND TECHNIQUES • Cut food into small pieces (about 3⁄4”/2 cm) before adding to the Blender. • When ingredients stick or spatter along the sides of the Jar, stop the blending action and remove the Lid. Use a rubber spatula to push food toward the blades. Replace the Lid, then continue blending. • Some of the tasks that cannot be performed efficiently with a Blender are: beating egg whites, whipping cream, mashing potatoes, grinding meats, mixing dough, and extracting juices from fruits and vegetables. • The following items should never be placed in the unit as they may cause damage: dried spices and herbs (ground alone), bones, large pieces of solidly frozen foods, tough foods such as turnips. • To crush ice, pour liquid in the Jar first, then add up to 6 ice cubes. Hold one hand firmly on the Lid; pulse, using the Ice Crush button. For models with a Lid Cap, use the Lid Cap to measure ingredients up to 60 ml/2 oz. when adding ingredients like lemon juice, cream, or liqueurs.

Cleaning & Storage FAST CLEAN 1. For the BL500/BL600 Series: The Fast Clean feature helps make it easier to clean the blender Jar by loosening food particles. You may use the Fast Clean feature by filling the Jar with lukewarm water to the CLEAN mark for models with plastic Jars or the 1.5Cup mark for models with glass Jars. Add a little dish detergent for tough cleaning jobs (such as after making salsa, shakes, or salad dressing). Hold the Lid and press the Fast Clean button. Let the unit run for about 5 seconds, then press Off. 2. Unplug the unit, twist to unlock ( ), lift the Jar off the Unit Base, and rinse. 3. Parts may be hand-washed (removable parts are also dishwasher-safe). Follow the cleaning instructions below. For the BL700 Series or for hand washing parts: 1. Before cleaning, turn off and unplug the Blender. 2. Rinse parts immediately after blending for easier

cleanup. Wash the Jar and the Lid with soap and water only. 3. Wipe the Unit Base with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Remove stubborn spots by rubbing with a damp cloth and non-abrasive cleaner. Do not immerse the Base in liquid. 4. Removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher. The Jar, Lid, Lid Cap, Dual Spout Lid (some models only),and Blade Assembly should be placed in the top rack on
