DO'S AND DON'TS WHEN USING YOUR BLENDER/FOOD PROCESSOR Do: • Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that stated on the bottom of the blender motor base. • Always use the motor base on a clean, sturdy and dry surface. • Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then add remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are uniformly mixed. • When using either appliance, cut most foods into cubes approximately ½" to 1" to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses into pieces no larger than ½". • When using blender, use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such as alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have been added. • When using either appliance, use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the blender is turned OFF. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur to the blender jar/work bowl or cutting assembly. • Place blender cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the cover on. • Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar. • After using blender, always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber gasket before cleaning. • When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food from the sides of the blender jar and place it in the center of the blender jar, over the cutting assembly. • When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs, nuts, spices, etc., make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly are completely dry. • If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar or food processor work bowl during use, pulse in short bursts. • When using food processor, pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop rotating between pulses. Don't: • Don't store food or liquids in your blender jar or food processor work bowl. • When using blender, don't place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base without the blender jar attached. • Blender or food processor will not mash potatoes, knead dough, or beat egg whites. • Don't remove blender jar or food processor bowl while unit is on. Keep the blender jar or food processor cover on while blending. • Don't twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender jar from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base. • Don't overprocess foods. Blender or food processor will achieve most desired results in seconds, not minutes. • Don't overload blender or food processor. If the motor stalls, turn off immediately, unplug the unit, and remove a portion of the food; then continue. • Don't use any utensil inside the blender jar or food processor bowl while the motor is on. • Don't use any container or accessories not recommended by Cuisinart. Doing so may result in injury. • Don't place hands inside the blender jar or food processor bowl when blender is plugged in. • Don't add boiling liquids or frozen foods (except ice cubes or ½" pieces of frozen fruit) to glass blender jar. Boiling liquids should cool for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar. • The food processor accessory is not intended to crush ice. This could damage the chopping blade and will damage work bowl. 8
