IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

CAUTION

To prevent personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions and warnings.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including:

• Read all instructions.
• To protect against fire, electric shock, and injury to persons do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric parts in water or other liquids.
• Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by or near children.
• Always unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. For service information see warranty page.
• The use of accessory attachments, including canning jars, not recommended by Focus Electronics may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
• Do not use this appliance outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• To disconnect, turn any control to "OFF," then remove plug from wall outlet.
• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
• Do not attempt to repair this appliance yourself.
• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• Longer extension cords are available, but care must be exercised in their use. While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one, ensure that the marked electrical rating of the extension cord is equal to or greater than that of the appliance. If the plug is of the grounded type, the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. To avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement, position the extension cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the counter, table or other area where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
• Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or extension cord feels hot.
• Avoid contact with moving parts.
• Blades are sharp; handle carefully.

• Do not blend hot liquids. Never pour boiling water into the blending jar.

• After running the motor continuously for ninety seconds, wait at least three minutes before running the motor again.

• To reduce the risk of injury, never place blade assembly blades on base without blending mug properly attached.
• For household use only.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Please check all packaging material carefully before discarding. Many accessory parts are contained within the packaging material.

Before using your Smoothie Express™ wash all parts, except the motor base, in warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry. The gasket should not be removed from the blade base for cleaning. Do not wash parts in the dishwasher.

USING YOUR SMOOTHHIE EXPRESS

CONTROL BUTTONS:

PULSE - gives short bursts of power at high speed. Use "PULSE" to begin the mixing of ice and other hard ingredients.

OFF - turns the appliance "OFF."

LOW - runs the appliance at low speed. Use this speed for the initial 15 seconds of mixing.

MED - runs the appliance at a medium speed. Use this speed for the majority of blending tasks.

HIGH - runs the appliance at high speed. Use this speed for the final stages of mixing, if desired.

The Smoothie Express™ mug has convenient measuring marks to create perfect smoothies and

frozen drinks. To make your favorite drink, follow these simple steps:

TO MIX:

16

1. ADD ICE - Add ice or frozen ingredients to the line on the side of the mug. Frozen ingredients include ice, frozen fruit, frozen yogurt, ice cream, etc.
2. ADD LIQUIDS - Add any combination of liquid ingredients until the total level

CUPS OZ

reaches up to the mark on the side of the mug. Liquids

include any soft ingredients such as fruit, milk, fruit juice, herbal supplements, or yogurt in any combination you think would be tasty.

1. Place the blade base on the mug and turn clockwise to tighten.
2. With the blade base firmly attached to the mug, flip the mug over and secure the blade base onto the motor base by turning the mug clockwise.

Note: The Smoothie Express™ includes a small, clear gasket inside the rim of the blade base as well as a travel lid. The gasket provides an effective seal between the mug and the blade base or lid. These gaskets should not be removed. If the clear gasket becomes dislodged from the blender base or lid, contact Focus Electronics' customer service. See warranty page.

1. Pulse the mixture 2 or 3 times by turning the dial to "PULSE."
2. Turn the dial on the motor base to "LOW" for 15 seconds to begin blending.
3. Turn the dial to "MED" until the ingredients are completely mixed. Note: After running the motor continuously for ninety seconds, wait at least three minutes before running the motor again.

TO GO:

1. Unlock the mug from the motor base and then flip the mug over.
2. Turn the blade base counter-clockwise and remove it from the mug.
3. Place the mug lid on the mug and turn clockwise to tighten.

Note: Do not store contents inside of the mug with the lid on. Pressure may build up inside of the mug causing the contents to expand rapidly when the cover is removed.

CLEANING YOUR SMOOTHIE EXPRESS

1. Switch to "OFF" and unplug from the electrical outlet.
2. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth or sponge. To remove stubborn spots, use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser.
3. Carefully wash all parts except for the motor base in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not wash parts in the dishwasher. Note: If the lid or blade base is difficult to remove from the mug, rinse or soak the mug and the blade base or lid in warm, soapy water. Then, using a damp cloth to grip the lid or blade base, unscrew from the mug by turning the lid or blade base counterclockwise.

THIS APPLIANCE HAS NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS.
