OPERATION

1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart ® PowerEdge ® 700-Watt Blender onto a flat, sturdy surface. It is important that the surface be clean and dry. Assemble the blender by following the Assembly instructions. Once the jar is assembled and is in position on the motor base, plug the

Cuisinart ® PowerEdge ® 700-Watt Blender into an electrical outlet.

2. Add all necessary ingredients to the blender jar, and replace the cover.

Make sure that the triangle icon in the cover is aligned with the pour spout. This will ensure smoother lifting of the lid. You may add more ingredients by lifting the measured pour lid and dropping ingredients through the fill area. Replace the measured pour lid after adding ingredients. Do not put hands in blender jar with blender plugged in.

Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of cover upward. Lifting measured pour lid will not remove cover.

3. Start Blending: Press the On/Off button. The red LED indicator light will illuminate and flash, indicating that the blender is turned on but no speed has been selected. This is Standby mode.

4. Choose Blending Speed: Press desired function to determine the speed at which you would like to blend the ingredients. The indicator light for the activated speed will glow. The blender will now be functioning at the desired speed. It is possible to switch speeds without pressing the On/

Off button by simply pushing another speed button.

Note: The Count Up ™ Timer will begin counting when the desired speed button is pushed. When you switch into a pre-programmed speed, the timer will reset to support the new command.

5. Pulse Mode: The Pulse mode allows you to create a burst of power for quick, efficient blending. To use the Pulse function, push the

On/Off button and the red LED indicator light will flash. Push the Pulse button and the Pulse LED indicator light will blink. Push and release the desired speed button. Repeat as desired. While pulsing, the LED indicator Pulse light will remain solid while the function button is pressed. 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 that do not require an extended amount of blending.

Note: The timer will count when you push Pulse and hold down the function button. The timer will pause when you release the function button. It will reset if you press Pulse again.

thermal fuse. In the event of an overload condition, the unit will shut down to protect the motor from overheating. To reset the appliance when this happens, unplug the unit and let it cool for a minimum of 15 minutes. Then, reduce the contents of the blender jar and/or clear any jams. Restart the unit as noted in the operating directions.

7. To Pause or Stop Blending Process:

a) To Pause Blending Process: Push the button corresponding to the speed at which you are currently blending. For example: If you are blending on High speed, push the High speed button and the blender will stop blending but the unit will remain on.

Note: By pausing the blending process, you will also pause the timer.

The timer will pause until you start blending again.

b) To Stop the Blending Process: Push the On/Off button when you are finished with your recipe and would like to turn the blender off.

Note: When you push the On/Off button, to power the blender off the timer will stop counting and the LCD display will be off. When the blender is turned back on and a speed button is pushed, the timer will begin to count from 0:00.

8. Timing Your Recipes: The PowerEdge ® 700-Watt Blender features a

3-minute Count-Up ™ Timer so that you can time your recipes and guarantee perfect results. The timer begins counting from 0 as soon as you push your desired speed: High, Low, Pulse, Purée or Soups & Sauces.

The timer will continue to count up even if you change speeds during blending. You can pause the timer by pausing the blending process. Do this by pushing the button corresponding to the speed at which you are currently blending. For example: If you are blending in Low speed and you push the Low speed button, the blender will stop blending and the timer will stop counting, but the unit will remain on. To continue blending and timing your recipe, push the function chosen again. The timer will also stop counting when it reaches 3:00 minutes, and an audible chime will sound. The blender will go into standby mode when the timed cycle is finished. The timer will reset itself when the On/Off button is pushed, a different speed is selected or a pre-programmed function is engaged.

9. Pre-Programmed Recipes: Smoothie and Ice Crush are both programmed based on extensive testing in our kitchen. As part of their programming, the blender will pause between burst and cycles. This is normal and by design.

LED backlight will illuminate and a 30-second count-up program will begin. Not smooth enough for your liking? After the cycle stops, the unit will go into standby. Press the smoothie button again to start a

• If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar when blending, pulse in short bursts.

• Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop rotating between pulses.

Don’t:

• Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar.

• Don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base without the blender jar attached.

• Do not attempt to mash potatoes, knead heavy dough, or beat egg whites.

• 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.

• Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while the motor is on.

• Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by Cuisinart.

Doing so may result in injury.

RECIPE TIPS

The simple recipes that follow include some old Cuisinart ® favorites as well as some creative combinations that are sure to please your friends and family. Thanks to the superior ice-crushing power and pre-programmability of the PowerEdge ® 700-Watt Blender, you’ll also be able to make delicious frozen drinks.

Chopping Nuts: Place ½ cup shelled nuts in the blender jar and cover blender. Pulse on High until desired chop is achieved. Pulse fewer times for coarsely chopped nuts. For best results process small amounts,

½ cup or less.

Bread, Cookie or Cracker Crumbs: Break or cut bread, cookies or crackers into pieces ½ inch or less in size. For best bread results, use day-old bread (drier bread works best). Place bread, cookie or cracker pieces in blender jar. Pulse on Low to chop, then blend continuously until desired texture of crumbs is achieved. For best results, process 1 cup or less at a time.

Crushing Ice: Add up to 8 standard ice cubes to the blender jar.

Cover. Press the pre-programmed Ice Crush button. Timer will sound; turn blender off.

Grating Fresh Citrus Zest: For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly must be clean and dry. Remove zest from fruit in strips using a vegetable peeler; use a sharp knife to remove the bitter white pith from the underside of the zest. Process no more than 8 strips at a time (zest of 1 medium lemon). Cut strips in half. Add strips and 1 to 2 teaspoons of sugar or coarse salt (from recipe) to the blender jar. Cover blender jar. Set on High; blend for 15 to 20 seconds. Turn blender off.

Baby Food: Combine no more than 1 pound of cooked vegetables or fruit with ½ cup liquid (water, milk, fruit juice, broth, or cooking liquid) in the blender jar. Cover. Set on Purée. Blend until smooth. Add more liquid as necessary and process further until desired texture is reached. Always consult with your pediatrician/family physician concerning the best foods for your baby and when to introduce new foods to his/her diet.

Grinding Hard Cheese: Cut cheese into ½-inch pieces; remove the outer hard rind. Place cheese in blender jar and cover blender. Pulse on High to chop cheese, then blend until desired grind is reached. For best results, grind no more than 3 ounces of cheese at a time.

Grinding Spices: For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly must be clean and dry. Add ¼ to ½ cup of spices/seeds/peppercorns to blender jar. Cover. Pulse on High to break up, then blend until desired consistency is achieved.

8

Whipping Cream: If possible, chill blender jar and cutting assembly in refrigerator for 15 minutes. Add 1 cup heavy or whipping cream to blender jar. Cover jar. Set on High and blend until cream is thickened. (Do not overblend – bits of butter will begin to form.) If desired, add 1 tablespoon sugar and 1 to 2 teaspoons of vanilla or other flavoring. Consistency will be that of a thickened, but not fluffy, whipped cream and is most appropriate for topping desserts or coffee drinks.

When using the blender to purée hot mixtures such as creamed soups and baby foods, strain the solids from the liquid, reserving the cooking liquid.

Then place the cooked solids in the blender jar along with ½ to 1 cup of the reserved cooking liquid. Use the Pulse function to chop, then blend until desired consistency/purée is reached.

Allow hot foods to cool slightly before blending to prevent steam buildup, which may cause the lid to lift up from the blender jar.

Keep your blender out on the counter within easy reach and you will be surprised how often you will use it.

Keep ice cubes made of juices, yogurt, milk or fruit purées on hand to substitute for plain ice when making smoothies and frosty beverages to prevent diluting the drink.
