Care and Cleaning
of Blender
All components of the blender, except the
blade/base assembly, are dishwasher
safe. It is recommended that the
blade/base assembly be cleaned only
under flowing water rather than in the
dishwasher. Soap and detergent will tend
to wash out the bearing lubricant of the
blade/base assembly. Do not use
scouring cleaners on any of the blender
parts.
Wash the blade/base assembly under
running water. Do not place the
blade/base assembly in the dishwasher or
allow it to stand in water. This will tend to
wash out the lubricant. After cleaning,
rinse thoroughly and dry before using.
The power unit of the kitchen machine
should be cleaned with a clean, damp
cloth only. Never use coarse or caustic
cleaning products to clean this appliance.
Never immerse the power unit in water.
Example of Use of Blender
To familiarize you with the operation of the
blender, a sample recipe for mayonnaise
is provided below:
Mayonnaise Recipe
1 whole egg
Õ cup of vegetable oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice or light
vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon dry mustard
½ teaspoon of salt
à cup of vegetable oil
Mix all ingredients, except final à cup of
oil, for a few seconds at speed 1, then
quickly pour the oil in through the opening
in the cover in a uniformly thick stream, as
shown in figure 14b. Operate the blender
at speeds 1 or 4 until mixture is thick and
smooth (approximately 10-20 seconds).
Makes 1 ¼ cups.
Tips
The blender should be operated with
careful consideration as to what is
required and/or desired. The speed at
which the blender is operated and the
length of operation for a given job will
depend upon the degree of fineness
desired or the amount being blended.
When the blender is being used on dry
materials, such as nuts or dry bread,
the best results will be obtained when
the blender jar is filled with approximately
½ cup of material to be blended.
If the blender does not start (even after
trying the highest speed) and it is
humming or not functioning at all,
the blade has become blocked by the
contents. Try to switch to the M" position
to unlock the blades. If this does not
unlock the blades refer to troubleshooting
section.
