BLENDING TIPS

Blending: Insert Hand Blender with

blending arm attached into the jar

containing ingredients at an angle. Use

your free hand to cover the top of the

blending jar for better stability and to

avoid splattering. Remember to stop the

Hand Blender before removing it from

the jar to avoid splashing.

Drawing up:Rest the Hand Blender

on the bottom of the jar momentarily,

then hold at an angle and slowly draw it

upwards against the side of the jar. As

the Hand Blender is drawn up, you will

notice the ingredients from the bottom

of the jar being drawn up. When the

ingredients are no longer being drawn

up from the bottom, return the Hand

Blender to the bottom of the jar and

repeat the process until the ingredients

are at the desired consistency.

Wrist movement:Using a light circular

motion from your wrist, draw the Hand

Blender up slightly and let it fall again

into the ingredients. Allow your wrist

motion and the weight of the Hand

Blender to do the work.

OPERATING TIPS

• Cut solid foods into small pieces for

easier blending.

• The Hand Blender is equipped with

thermal protection from high operating

temperatures. Should the Hand Blender

suddenly stop during use, unplug it and

allow 10 minutes to automatically reset.

Blender into the mixture before pressing

the Power button, and release the

Power button before pulling the Hand

Blender out of the mixture.

• When blending in a saucepan on a

cooktop, remove the pan from the

heating element to protect the Hand

Blender from overheating.

• For best blending, hold the Hand

Blender at an angle and gently move up

and down within the container. Do not

pound down on the mixture with the

Hand Blender.

• To prevent overﬂow, allow room in the

container for the mixture to rise when

using the Hand Blender.

• Be sure the extra long cord of the Hand

Blender is not extending over a hot

heating element.

• Do not let the Hand Blender sit in a hot

pan on the cooktop while not in use.

• Remove hard items, such as fruit pits

or bones, from the mixture before

blending to help prevent damage to the

blades.

• Do not use your Hand Blender to

process coffee beans or hard spices such

as nutmegs. Processing these foods

could damage the blades of the Hand

Blender.
