IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
1. Place the gift box containing your Cuisinart® Supreme Super 600™
Blender on a flat, sturdy surface before unpacking.
16. When blending HOT liquids, remove measured pour lid (centre
piece of cover) to allow steam to escape.
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
2. Remove instruction book and other printed materials from top of
corrugated insert.
INTRODUCTION
17. Twist on locking ring firmly. Injury can result if moving blades
accidentally become exposed.
2. To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not put motor
base of blender in water or other liquid.
This may be the most powerful blender you’ll ever own. The secret
is the high-torque 600-watt motor that powers our cyclonic blending
action. Your Supreme Super 600™ Blender delivers consistently smooth
results fast whether you’re making delicious smoothies or healthy
vegetable purées. Preprogrammed speeds take the guesswork out of
blending, and dishwasher-safe parts take the effort out of cleaning!
3. Remove corrugated insert containing measured pour lid.
4. Lift blender base from box.
18. Do not use an extension cord with this unit. Doing so may
result in fire, electrical shock, or personal injury.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or

assembly.
Regarding your cord set: A longer cord has been provided so
that you will have flexibility in positioning your Cuisinart® Supreme
Super 600™ Blender near an electrical outlet. Exercise care when
using the longer cord, to avoid entangling or tripping over the cord.
The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over
the counter or tabletop, where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over. Excess cord should be stored in the cord storage
area at the back of the blender base to avoid injury caused by the
longer cord.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning or removing contents from blender jar.
Never put hands into the blender jar or container, or handle the
blades with appliance plugged in.
To assemble the blender, follow the Assembly Instructions in this
booklet. Replace all corrugated inserts in the box and save the box for
repackaging.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
Before using for the first time: Wash all parts according to the Cleaning
and Maintenance section in this booklet to remove any dust or residue.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to nearest Cuisinart service facility for
examination, repair, and/or mechanical or electrical adjustment.

Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of cover upwards. Lifting
measured pour lid will not remove cover.
7. To crush ice: the Supreme Super 600TM Blender motor is strong
enough to crush ice without liquid at any speed; however, for your
convenience, we have preset the best speed for ice crushing. To
give you greater control, the ice crush function automatically
operates as a pulse function. To crush ice, place ice cubes in the
blender jar, and place the cover and the measured pour lid on the
blender jar. Press the “On” button. Press the “Ice Crush” button in
short pulses until ice is crushed to desired consistency. See the
Recipe Tips and Hints for more details.
Remove the blender jar cover and the measured pour lid. Wash in
warm, soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly, or place in upper rack of
dishwasher. The blender jar must be washed in warm, soapy water and
rinsed and dried thoroughly. The blender jar can also be placed upside
down in dishwasher.
•
•
Always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber gasket
before cleaning.
When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food from
the sides of the blender jar and place food in the centre of the
blender jar, over the cutting assembly.
3. To start blending: press the “On” button. The red “On” LED light
will flash, indicating that the blender is turned on but no speed has
been selected.
Finally, wipe the motor base clean with a damp cloth to remove any
residue, and dry thoroughly. Never submerge the motor base in water
or other liquid, or place in a dishwasher.
•
•
When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs,
nuts, spices, etc, make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly
are completely dry.
4. Press the desired blending speed: both the “On” indicator light
and the activated speed indicator light will glow. The blender will
now be functioning at the desired speed. It is possible to switch
speeds without pressing the “Off” button, by simply pushing the
next desired speed button.
Tip: You may wish to clean your blender cutting assembly as follows:
Squirt a small amount of dishwashing liquid into assembled blender jar
and fill halfway with warm water. Select Mix and run for 30 seconds, or
as needed. Repeat, using clean tap water. Empty blender jar and
carefully disassemble parts. Wash cutting assembly, gasket and
locking ring in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly.
Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop
rotating between pulses. If food tends to stick to the sides of the
blender jar when blending, pulse in short bursts.
8. To dislodge food: use a rubber or plastic spatula to help remove
food lodged around the cutting assembly. Do not use spatula until
you have turned the blender off. Replace the cover and measured
pour lid and continue blending, if necessary. Make sure spatula is
not inside the blender jar before blending.
DON’T:
•
•
Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar.
9. When finished blending: press the “Off” button and unplug the
blender from the electrical outlet. Never remove the blender jar from
the motor base until the blender is off. Do not twist locking ring
from blender jar when removing jar from motor base. Simply lift
blender jar from motor base. Do not place hands into blender jar
with blender plugged in.
Don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base
without the blender jar attached.
DOs AND DON’Ts WHEN USING
YOUR BLENDER
•
•
•
•
•
Don’t attempt to mash potatoes, knead heavy dough, or beat
egg whites.
DO:
Don’t remove blender jar while unit is on. Keep the blender jar
cover on the blender jar while blending.
•
Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that
stated on the bottom of the blender motor base.
5. To stop the blending process: re-press the activated speed
button. The blending process will stop. The red “On” indicator light
will continue to flash to let you know that the blender is still on and
can be reactivated by pushing the desired speed button. The
blender can be completely deactivated and stopped at any speed
by pushing the “Off” button. You will need to press the “On” button
again to continue blending.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Don’t twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender jar
from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.
•
•
Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.
Always unplug your Cuisinart® Supreme Super 600™ Blender from the
electrical outlet before cleaning. The blender is made of corrosion-
resistant parts which are easy to clean. Before first use and after every
use, clean each part thoroughly. Periodically check all parts before
reassembly. If any part is damaged or blender jar is chipped or
cracked, DO NOT USE BLENDER.
Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then add
remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are
uniformly mixed.
Don’t overprocess foods. Blender will achieve most desired results
in seconds, not minutes.
Don’t overload blender. If the motor stalls, turn the blender off
immediately, unplug the unit, and remove a portion of the food,
then continue.
•
•
•
Cut most foods into approximately ½-inch (1.25 cm) to 1-inch
(2.5 cm) cubes to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses
into pieces no larger than ½-inch (1.25 cm).
6. Pulse mode: while the blender is turned on, you can create a burst
of power for quick, efficient blending, by activating the pulse
function. To do so, first push the “Pulse” button, which will cause
the pulse indicator light to flash. Next, push and release the desired
speed button. Repeat as desired. You determine the duration of
each pulse. While pulsing, all indicator lights (the on, the pulse, and
the desired speed) will glow. The pulse function can be used to
break apart larger pieces of food or to control the texture of food
when chopping. The pulse function is also effective in starting the
blending process when you do not want continuous power, or
when processing items which do not require an extended amount
of blending.
Remove the blender jar from the motor base by lifting straight up and
away. Twist off the locking ring by turning counterclockwise. Remove
the cutting assembly and rubber gasket. Wash in warm soapy water,
rinse, and dry thoroughly.
•
•
Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while the motor is on.
Use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such
as alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have
been added.
Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by
Cuisinart. Doing so may result in injury.
Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the blender
is turned off. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur to
the blender jar or cutting assembly.
•
•
Don’t place hands inside the blender jar when blender is
plugged in.
Place the locking ring in the upper rack of the dishwasher or wash in
warm water.
Don’t add boiling liquids or frozen foods (except ice cubes or
½-inch (1.25 cm) pieces of frozen fruit) to glass blender jar. Boiling
liquids should cool for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar.
CAUTION: Handle the cutting assembly carefully. It is SHARP and may
cause injury. Do not attempt to remove blades from cutting assembly.
•
•
Place cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the
cover on.
Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.

• Keep frozen fruit (whole berries, slices, chunks or pieces of other fruits)
on hand to be able to replace ice to make “frozen,” “slushy,” or
“smoothie” type drinks at any time. Using frozen fruit keeps the drink
from tasting watered down.

Perfect Popovers
Welsh Rarebit
SAVORIES
Impress your guests with these deceivingly simple popovers that are
mixed in a matter of seconds in your Cuisinart® blender.
Also known as “Welsh Rabbit,” this cheese sauce is traditionally
served over toast points or toasted English muffin halves. A slice of
tomato can be placed on the toast first for “high tea” and it can also
be put under the broiler for a few moments. We have also found that
this recipe is delicious served over steamed broccoli or cauliflower, a
baked potato, or it could be tossed with cooked pasta shapes to
make a macaroni and cheese dish.

cup (175 ml) heavy cream
Butter a 2-quart (1.9L) shallow baking dish (9 x 9 inches (23x23 cm)
square or equivalent) with 1 tablespoon (15 ml) unsalted butter and
place in a larger shallow baking pan. Toss the apple slices with the
lemon juice. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of butter and toss
in a large mixing bowl with bread cubes and apple slices.
Place the eggs, evaporated milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and heavy
cream in the blender jar. Blend on Purée for 20 seconds. Pour the mix-
ture over the bread cubes. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Let the mix-
ture stand for 45 minutes, or cover and refrigerate up to 12 hours (if
refrigerated, let come to room temperature for 30 minutes before pro-
ceeding).
Ten minutes before baking, preheat oven to 325° F (160ºC). Place the
baking pans in the oven and carefully pour hot water into the larger,
outer pan until the water comes up the sides of the inner dish by 1 inch
(2.5 cm). Bake for 60 to 70; minutes, bread pudding will be puffed and
custard will be set. Remove from oven and allow the bread pudding to
rest for 20 to 30 minutes on a rack before serving. Serve with sweet-
ened whipped cream.
*Bread pudding is best made from day-old bread. Use a high quality
bread with firm crumb. Suggested breads: challah, cinnamon swirl or
cinnamon raisin, or best quality sandwich bread.
