Rest the Commercial Immersion Blender on the bottom of the pot or bowl momentarily then hold at an angle and slowly draw it upwards against the side of the pot or bowl. As the Commercial Immersion Blender is drawn up you will notice the ingredients from the bottom of the pot or bowl being drawn up.

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

• Cut solid foods into small pieces for easier blending or chopping.

• To avoid splashing, insert the Commercial Immersion Blender into the mixture before pressing the power button, and release the power button before pulling the Commercial Immersion Blender out of the mixture.

• When blending in a saucepan on a cooktop, remove the pan from the heating element to protect the Commercial Immersion Blender from overheating.

• For best blending, hold the Commercial Immersion Blender at an angle and gently move up and down within the container. Do not pound down on the mixture with the Commercial Immersion Blender.

• To prevent overflow, allow room in the container for the mixture to rise when using the Commercial Immersion Blender.
• Be sure the extra long cord of the Commercial Immersion Blender is not extending over a hot heating element.
• Do not let the Commercial Immersion 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 or chopping to help prevent damage to the blades.
