3. Operating Instructions
Blending Process
The GDOR Portable Smoothie Blender features three one-touch programs for various blending needs:
- Prepare Ingredients: Add liquids first, then soft ingredients, and finally frozen fruits or ice. Ensure ingredients are cut into small pieces (approximately 1 inch or 2.5 cm) for optimal blending.
- Secure the Cup: Twist the cup onto the motor base until it is firmly locked.
- Select Program: Press the power button to turn on the blender. Use the program selection button to choose between Blend, Crush, or Smoothie modes.
- Start Blending: Press the START/STOP button. The blender will automatically adjust speed and pulse according to the selected program. The 25000 RPM motor and stainless steel blades are designed to crush ice and frozen fruits efficiently.
- Stop Blending: The blender will automatically stop when the program is complete. You can also press the START/STOP button at any time to manually stop the blending cycle.
Twist & Go Functionality
After blending, you can easily detach the cup from the motor base for portability:
