Figure 3: The control knob for variable speed and high-grade stainless steel blades.
- Preparation: Ensure the jar is correctly assembled and locked onto the motor unit.
- Operation: Turn the control knob to the desired speed setting.
- Pulse Function: For short bursts of power, turn the knob to the 'Pulse' setting and release. This is ideal for coarse grinding or quick mixing.
- Continuous Operation: For continuous grinding or blending, turn the knob to speed settings 1, 2, or 3. Start with a lower speed and gradually increase if needed.
- Monitoring: Observe the consistency of the ingredients through the transparent lid. If necessary, stop the appliance, open the lid, and scrape down the sides of the jar with a spatula (ensure the appliance is unplugged before doing so).
- Completion: Once the desired consistency is achieved, turn the control knob to the 'OFF' position. Unplug the appliance from the power outlet.
- Disassembly: Unlock the jar by turning it counter-clockwise and lift it off the motor unit. Carefully remove the lid and pour out the contents.
Tips for Best Results:
- For dry grinding, ensure ingredients are completely dry.
- For wet grinding, add sufficient liquid to ensure smooth operation.
- Do not run the mixer grinder continuously for more than 5 minutes. Allow a cooling period of 2-3 minutes before resuming.
- When grinding hard ingredients, use the pulse function initially to break them down before continuous grinding.
