USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Set the motor unit (A) on a flat and stable surface.

Do not fill the bottle excessively.
Screw the blade firmly (B1) onto the opening of the blender bottle (B2) (Image 1). Then place the bottle with the blade on the motor unit, aligning the arrow on the outside of the blade with the arrow on the edge of the motor unit (Image 2). Then place the vacuum bottle on the motor unit, aligning the arrow on the outside of the blade with the arrow on the edge of the motor unit.
