Operating Instructions
1. Preparing Ingredients
- Cut fruits and vegetables into small pieces (approximately 1-2 cm) to ensure smooth blending and prevent blade obstruction.
- Add liquid (water, milk, juice) first, then soft ingredients, and finally harder ingredients or ice cubes. This helps the blades move freely.
- Do not exceed the 300ml capacity mark on the jar.
2. Blending
- Ensure the jar is securely attached to the motor base and the lid is tightly closed.
- Press the power button on the motor base to start blending. The blender operates with a single speed.
- For optimal results, gently shake the blender during operation to ensure all ingredients are processed evenly.
- The blending cycle will typically run for a set duration or until manually stopped by pressing the power button again.

Maintenance and Cleaning
1. Cleaning After Use
- Immediately after each use, rinse the jar and blades.
- The blending jar is dishwasher safe. For manual cleaning, fill the jar with warm water and a drop of dish soap, then run the blender for a few seconds to self-clean. Rinse thoroughly.
- Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the motor base in water.
- Ensure all parts are completely dry before storing.
2. Storage
Store the blender in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure it is fully charged before long-term storage to maintain battery health.
