4.1 Speed Settings

• Turn the control dial to position '1' for a lower blending speed, suitable for softer ingredients or initial mixing.
• Turn the control dial to position '2' for a higher blending speed, ideal for tougher ingredients or achieving a smoother consistency.
• To stop blending, turn the dial back to the '0' (off) position.

4.2 Pulse Function

• The 'P' (Pulse) setting provides short bursts of maximum power. This is useful for chopping, crushing ice, or when you need more control over the blending process.
• To use the pulse function, turn and hold the dial to the 'P' position. Release the dial to stop.
• Use short pulses to avoid over-processing ingredients.

4.3 Blending Tips

• For best results, add liquids first, then soft ingredients, and finally harder ingredients or ice.
• Cut large ingredients into smaller pieces (approx. 2-3 cm) before blending.
• If ingredients stick to the sides, turn off the blender, unplug it, remove the lid, and use a spatula to push ingredients towards the blades. Never use your hands or utensils while the blender is running.
• Do not operate the blender continuously for more than 60 seconds. Allow the motor to rest for a few minutes between cycles to prevent overheating.
