mixing container.
•
•
Be sure to turn switch to OFF position after each use.
To disconnect, grip plug and pull from wall outlet. Never pull on cord to
disconnect.
•
•
Never leave the house while the appliance is on.
A short cord set is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
•
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. The marked
electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so
that it will not drape over the counter top where it can be tripped over or

minutes before running the motor again.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the appliance
plug in any way.

OPERATION
Smoothie FreezeControl Buttons
PULSE gives short bursts of power at high speed.
Use PULSE to begin the mixing of ice and other hard
ingredients.
LOW/DISPENSE runs the unit at low speed. This speed
should be used for the initial 30 seconds of mixing as well
as for dispensing.
HIGH runs the unit at high speed. This speed should be
used for the final stages of mixing. Do not use this speed
for dispensing.
OFF turns off the machine.
The Smoothie Freezemixing container is conveniently marked to create perfect
smoothies. To make your favorite frozen drinks, follow these simple steps:
ADD LIQUIDS
Add any combination of liquid ingredients up to the LIQUIDS mark under SERVES
3. Liquids include any soft ingredients such as fruit, milk, fruit juice, herbal
supplements or yogurt in any combination you think would be tasty.
We are, of course, partial to the Back to Basics® smoothie mixes, which quickly
and easily make three delicious 8-ounce smoothies.
ADD ICE
Add ice or frozen ingredients until the total level reaches the FROZEN
INGREDIENTS line on the side of the mixing container. Frozen ingredients include
ice, frozen fruit, frozen yogurt, ice cream, etc.
SMOOTH IT
With the lid on and the stir stick set in the hole on the lid, pulse the mixture 2 or 3
times by pressing the PULSE button. Then move the switch to HIGH and wait until
the ingredients are completely mixed. Turn the stir stick counter-clockwise for best
mixing results.
SERVE IT
To serve the smoothie, press the switch to LOW/DISPENSE, place a cup under
the valve and press down the valve lever. Stir the contents in the mixing container
with the stir stick while dispensing thick smoothies. As the smoothie level reaches
the bottom of the mixing container, a thick mix may stop dispensing. Add a few
tablespoons of liquid to increase flow. When the mixing container is empty, turn the
machine OFF and enjoy.

CARE & CLEANING
Before using the first time and after each use, be sure to thoroughly wash the
mixing container, blade assembly, rubber gasket, valve, lid and stir stick. To prolong

from the mixing container and rubber gasket for cleaning; turn it clockwise to
remove.
