Safety Precautions

  • • Lid Security: Always operate the blender with the lid firmly in place and your hand placed lightly on top for extra stability.
  • • Dry Operation: Never run the motor base without the jug attached or when the jug is completely empty, as this can damage the internal drive coupling.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • • Can it crush ice? Yes, the 700W motor combined with the pulse setting is specifically designed to crush ice cubes into a fine snow-like consistency.
  • • How do I clean the blades? For a quick clean, fill the jug halfway with warm soapy water and pulse for 30 seconds, then rinse. The blade assembly can also be unscrewed for deep cleaning.
  • • Is it BPA-free? Yes, using a glass jug naturally ensures that your food remains free from BPA and other plastic-related chemicals.

Quick Healthy Hack: The "Instant" Frozen Yoghurt
