SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

— FOR 120 V & 127 V PRODUCTS ONLY —

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized

plug (one blade is wider than the

other). As a safety feature, this

plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does

not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,

contact a qualified electrician.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THIS SAFETY FEATURE.54

consists of two parts, the plastic feeder cap

(1) and the vinyl cover (2). The cover is

self-sealing, and is made of vinyl which is

resistant to absorption of odors and stains.

The feeder cap is removable for use as a

measuring cup and provides an opening

for the addition of other ingredients.

CONTAINER The container (3) for the Blender is

graduated for easy measurement and is

molded of heat and cold resistant material.

The convenient handle and pouring lip

permit easy removal of liquid mixtures

while thicker mixtures are more easily

removed through the bottom opening.

PROCESSING ASSEMBLY The processing assembly consists of three

parts: a sealing ring

(4) used as a cushion

between the container and the agitator;

(5) of high-grade stainless steel;

a threaded container bottom

MOTOR AND MOTOR BASE The powerful multi-speed motor is the

heart of the appliance and is designed just

for this unit. It is completely enclosed

(7). The motor uses a

“free-floating” feature to reduce noise and

wear. This allows the square post which

protrudes from the motor base to move

slightly from side to side. The powerful

food processing motor can be overloaded.

To avoid this possibility, closely follow the

instructions in this book.

TIGHTENING THE CONTAINER A. To tighten container bottom, put assembledcontainer securely into motor base ring withhandle and lug in front of the right stop.B.

HOW YOUR OSTERIZER® BLENDER WORKS Your OSTERIZER

Blender is a multi-speed appliance which operates on a wide range

of speeds from very slow to very fast. This range of speeds makes food preparation easy,

interesting and fast.

Blender has two distinct methods of operation:

1. CONTINUOUS run for blending, liquefying and fine chopping.

CONTROLLED CYCLE BLENDING, used for chopping pieces of food, such as vegetables,

nuts or cheeses. There are several different ways of operating the CONTROLLED CYCLE /

BLENDING CYCLE feature, but all involve turning the motor “ON” and “OFF” intermittently.

When “ON,” food is chopped and tossed away from the blades. When “OFF,” the food

is distributed around the blades to make processing more uniform.

: A cycle consists of operating the blender for about two seconds and then allowing

the blades to coast to a stop.

S PEED TO F UNCTION C HART

THINGS TO DO AND NOT TO DO DO: • Use only the line voltage and frequency as specified on the bottom of the Blender.• Always operate Blender on a clean, dry surface to prevent air from carrying foreign materialor water into the motor.• Put liquid portions of recipes into Blender container first unless the instructions in recipesspecify otherwise.• Cut all firm fruits and vegetables, cooked meats, fish and seafoods into pieces no larger than 3/4 inch/1.8 cm to 1 inch/2.5 cm. Cut all kinds of cheeses into pieces no larger than 3/4 inch/1.8 cm.• Use rubber spatula to push ingredients to be chopped into liquid portion of recipe ONLYwhen motor is OFF.• Place cover firmly on Blender container before starting, and rest hand on the container coverwhen starting and running motor.• Remove heavy dips and spreads, nut butters, mayonnaise and products of similar consistencyby removing the processing assembly and pushing the mixture out through the bottom openinginto serving dishes or storage container.• Pour mixture of liquid or semi-liquid consistency, such as muffin and cake batter, fromBlender container.• Allow cooked vegetables and broth to cool before pouring into Blender container for processing.• If the motor seems to labor when processing at one of the lower speeds, switch to the nexthigher speed to prevent overloading the motor.• Use a Mini Jar or 5-cup/1.2 liter blender container to process citrus rind, coffee beans or cereal grains. Use only glass Blender container to process whole spices and hard cheese.

expect your Blender to replace all of your kitchen appliances. It will not:

mash potatoes, whip egg whites or substitutes for dairy toppings, grind raw meat,

knead or mix stiff dough or extract juices from fruits and vegetables.

process mixtures too long. Remember, the Blender performs its tasks in seconds,

not minutes. It is better to stop and check the consistency after a few seconds than to overblend

and have a mushy or too finely ground product.

overload the motor with extra-heavy or extra-large loads. If the motor stalls, turn off

immediately, unplug cord from outlet and remove a portion of the load before beginning again.

attempt to remove Blender container from motor base or replace it until the motor

has come to a complete stop. Blender parts can be damaged.

remove container cover while processing, as food spillage can occur.

place or store processing assembly on motor base without first correctly assembling

to Blender container. Severe injury can result if Blender is accidentally turned on.

use any utensil, including spatulas, in the container while the motor is running.

They can catch in the moving blades, break the container and cause severe injury.

use ANY container not recommended by the manufacturer for processing foods.
