OPERATION BLENDER SOLUTION™ 4000 CONTROL BUTTONS OFF shuts off the machine. MEDIUM runs the Blender Solution™ at medium speed. PULSE runs the Blender Solution™ at high speed. LOW runs the Blender Solution™ at low speed. This speed should be used for the initial 30 seconds of mixing as well as for dispensing. HIGH runs the Blender Solution™ at high speed. This speed should be used for the final stages of mixing. Do not use this speed for dispensing. BLENDER OPERATION 1. Assemble the blender blade base onto the glass mixing jar. 2. Add ingredients to the mixing jar and replace the lid. You may add more ingredients through the hole in the center of the lid. (Note: Add liquid ingredients first, then add frozen or solid ingredients. This will prevent excessive wear and stress on the motor). Cover the hole with the clear lid cap or stir stick during operation. 3. TO START BLENDING: Choose a speed for blending the ingredients and then press the appropriate button. 4. TO STOP BLENDING: To stop the blending process, push the OFF button. 5. PULSE MODE: The PULSE button allows you to create short bursts of power. To use the PULSE function, repeatedly push and release the PULSE button. The PULSE function should be used in the initial stage of blending ice and frozen ingredients for smoothies and other frozen drinks. The PULSE function should also be used to break apart larger pieces of food or to control the texture of food when chunkier results are desired. 9
