BLENDER TIPS
• Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage
as that stated on the bottom of the power base.
If your blender fails within one year from date of purchase we will
repair or replace it free of charge provided:
• Always use the blender on a clean, dry surface.
•
•
•
You have not misused, neglected or damaged it.
It has not been modified.
• Cut most foods into cubes approximately 3/4” (1.8cm) to
1” (2.5cm) to achieve a more uniform result.
You supply your receipt showing when you bought your
blender.
• Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the
motor is off. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur
to the jug and blades.
The guarantee does not affect your statutory rights.
• Place lid on firmly. The blender will only operate with the lid
correctly positioned on the jug and the plunger inserted in
the safety switch.
If over one year, contact Dualit for recommended repair agents.
Further advice on using your Dualit blender and other products in
the Dualit Range is available from:

• Cool hot foods to below 60°c before blending and with all
foods, start at slow speed to combine ingredients then
increase speed, if necessary. Use heat proof gloves, if
blending warm foods.
• For a thicker slushy consistency in frozen drinks, simply add
more ice, a cube at a time, until desired consistency is
reached.

consequential damages.
