USING YOUR SMOOTHIE MAKER CONTROL BUTTONS: OFF - Turns the appliance off. LOW - runs the appliance at low speed. Use this speed for the initial 30 seconds of mixing as well as for dispensing. HIGH - Runs the appliance at high speed. This speed should be used for the final stages of mixing. Do not use this speed for disensing. PULSE - gives short bursts of power at high speed. Use "PULSE" to begin the mixing of ice and other hard ingredients. The Smoothie Classic™ blending jar is conveniently marked to create perfect smoothies. To make your favorite frozen drinks, follow the steps below. 1. ADD LIQUIDS - Add any combination of liquid ingredients up to the LIQUIDS mark under SERVES 2 or SERVES 4 located on the blending jar. Liquids include any soft ingredients such as fruit, milk, fruit juice, herbal supplements, or yogurt in any combination you think would be tasty. We are, of course, partial to the Back to Basics® smoothie mixes, which quickly and easily make three delicious 8-ounce smoothies. 2. ADD ICE - Add ice or frozen ingredients until the total level reaches the FROZEN INGREDIENTS line on the side of the blending jar. Frozen ingredients include ice, frozen fruit, frozen yogurt, ice cream, etc. 3. SMOOTH IT - With the lid on and the stir stick (use as directed below) set in the hole on the lid, pulse the mixture 2 or 3 times by turning the switch to "PULSE". Then move the left switch to "ON" and move the right switch to "HIGH" and wait until the ingredients are thoroughly blended. STIR STICK OPERATION - When in use and while the machine is running, stir or rotate the Stir Stick in a counterclockwise direction so that the Stir Stick scrapes or contacts the sides of the blending jar. This stirring operation will aid in mixing the contents of the blending jar by forcing the ingredients into the mixing blades. 5
