Using the appliance
Control knob
Your blender is equipped with a special control knob with an
illuminated
ring that lights up when the appliance is running.
You can set the control knob to any speed between MIN and MAX or,
even easier, use one of the three quick-select buttons: Smoothie, Ice and
Pulse.
--- If you want to use a speed between MIN and MAX, turn the control
knob to the desired position.
If you have doubts about the correct speed, always select the highest speed
(MAX).
--- If you want to use one of the quick-select buttons, first turn the
control knob to position ON. Then press the desired quick-select button.
When you turn the control knob to position ON, the lights in the buttons start to flash.
Smoothie function
Use this function to prepare delicious smoothies. When you press the
SMOOTHIE button, the appliance starts mixing the smoothie according to
the appropriate speed profile. To stop the process, press Smoothie button
again.
Smoothies are thick drinks made of frozen or fresh fruit and fruit juices
mixed together, sometimes with ice, ice cream, milk or yoghurt. See chapter
?”Recipes” for a few examples. Add more liquid to make a thinner smoothie
and add more frozen or fresh fruit to make a thicker smoothie.
Ice button
The blender is equipped with a special speed profile for crushing ice.
When you press the Ice button, the appliance starts crushing the ice
according to the appropriate speed profile.To stop the ice-crushing
process, press the Ice button again.
The ice will be crushed within a few seconds and the result is tiny, regular
pieces of ice. For instance, if you want to get crushed ice out of 5 ice cubes,
press the Ice button, let the appliance complete 5 crushing cycles and then
switch off the appliance. If you want the ice to be crushed into snow, turn
the control knob to maximum speed or press the Pulse button for a few
seconds. If the result is still too coarse, press the Pulse button again.

Process these ingredients in a series of small batches instead.
-- To make tomato juice, cut the tomatoes in four and drop the pieces
through the opening in the lid onto the rotating blades.
Measuring cup
You can use the measuring cup to measure ingredients or to prepare
mayonnaise.
, , To prepare mayonnaise, you can punch a hole in the middle of
the bottom of the measuring cup with a knife or another sharp
implement to use the measuring cup as a funnel for adding oil when
preparing mayonnaise. The oil should be added very slowly to obtain
the right consistency. Let the blender operate at a low speed when
preparing mayonnaise.
Note: Once you have punched a hole in the measuring cup, it cannot be used as a measuring cup anymore.

Troubleshooting

the list below. If the problem is not mentioned in this list, the appliance
probably has a defect. In that case we advise you to take the appliance to
your dealer or to an authorised Philips service centre.
Question and Answer
(Q & A)
Question: Can I clean allremovable parts in thedishwasher?
Answer:
Yes, except the motor unit.
Answer:
Please check if you have plugged in the appliance. Also check if the
blender jar has been assembled properly.
Question: What does “pulse” mean?
When you press the Pulse button, the appliance will run at its highest
speed as long as you keep pressing the button. Using the Pulse button is
recommended if you want to have more control over the processing job, for
instance when you are chopping.
Question: Can I pour boiling hot liquids into the blender jar?
Answer:
No, let the liquids or ingredients cool down to 80 degree C/175 degree F
to avoid damaging the accessories.
Question: Why does the motor produce an unpleasant smell during processing?
Answer: It is very common for a new appliance to give off an unpleasant smell or emit some smoke the first few times it is used. This phenomenon will stop after you have used the appliance a number of times. The appliance may also give off an unpleasant smell or emit some smoke if it has been used too long. In this case you have to switch the appliance off and let it cool down for 60 minutes.
Question: The appliance stopped running because the blade unit is blocked.What should I do?
Answer:
Switch the appliance off and use a spatula to dislodge the ingredients
that are blocking the blade unit. We also recommend processing a smaller quantity.
Question: The blender jar leaks. What should I do?
Answer: Switch the appliance off and pour out the ingredients. Then remove the
blade unit interface. Check if the sealing ring has been assembled correctly.
Question: Why does the fruit juice or soy milk contain a lot of pulp or skins?
Answer: Pour the drink through a sieve. To prevent pulp and skins from ending up in your drink, leave the measuring cup in the lid, make sure the lid and the filter
are in place and the lid is assembled in the correct position (i.e. with the strainer directly in front of the pouring lip).
