Mash or puree fruit; add to drink, and mix. Fruit may be sliced if chunks are desired. • The container must always be filled to at least the minimum level mark or the liquid will not reach mixing shaft. Do not fill above maximum level mark (12 ounces/350 ml) or liquid may overflow while mixing. • For best results, all liquid ingredients should be as cold as possible. Milk drinks will taste best if milk is ice cold. The colder the milk, the thicker and more frothy the drink. • All syrups and powdered mixes should be added just before mixing to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the container. • The drink mixer does not crush ice. For best results, use crushed ice if the recipe calls for ice. Cleaning your Drink Mixer 1. To clean the mixing shaft, place 8 ounces (250 ml) warm, soapy water in stainless steel container. Place container onto Drink Mixer. Set Control Switch to Low for 30 seconds. When finished, turn unit to O (OFF). 2. Repeat Step 1 with warm water only to rinse mixer shaft. 3. With unit turned to O (OFF), unplug unit and wipe residual soap and water from the mixing shaft with a damp cloth or sponge. 4. The metal mixing container should be washed in warm, soapy water or in a dishwasher. 5. To clean drink mixer, wipe with damp cloth or sponge. Do not use abrasive cleansers of any type. DO NOT IMMERSE APPLIANCE IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID. 7
