Safety Precautions

- • Thermal Shock: While the glass is heat-resistant, avoid pouring boiling liquid directly into a freezing cold jug to prevent stress cracks.
- • 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
- • Does the glass jug stain? No, unlike plastic jars, the high-quality Platinum glass jug is resistant to staining from ingredients like turmeric or beetroot and does not absorb food odours.
- • 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
- • For a quick, low-fat dessert, toss two cups of frozen berries, a splash of honey, and one cup of thick Greek yoghurt into your Platinum blender. Pulse on high for 45 seconds until smooth for a nutritious, soft-serve frozen yoghurt the kids will love.
