1. Adding Ingredients: Place ingredients into the blending container. Do not exceed the maximum fill line (2500 ml capacity). For hot liquids, ensure the lid is securely in place and use the refill opening to add ingredients carefully. The container is heat-resistant.

3. Power On: Flip the "ON/OFF" switch to the "ON" position.
4. Variable Speed Control: Use the rotary dial to adjust the blending speed from minimum to maximum (up to 28,000 RPM). Start with a lower speed and gradually increase as needed.
5. Pulse Function: For quick bursts of power or to chop ingredients, use the "PULSE" switch. Hold the switch for desired duration, then release. The pulse function operates at maximum speed.
6. Blending: Blend until desired consistency is achieved. For thick mixtures, use the tamper through the lid's refill opening to push ingredients towards the blades, ensuring the tamper does not touch the blades.
7. Power Off: Once blending is complete, flip the "ON/OFF" switch to the "OFF" position and unplug the appliance.
