Kambrook Safety
• Do not operate the appliance continuously
with heavy loads for more than 1 minute.
Allow the motor to rest for 1 minute between
each use. None of the recipes in this
instruction book are considered a heavy load.
Welcome to Kambrook and your new Kambrook
blender. At Kambrook we believe that the safe
performance is the first priority in any consumer
product so that you, our valued customer, can
confidently use and trust our appliances. We ask
that any electrical appliance you use be operated
in a sensible fashion with due care and attention
placed on the following important operating
instructions.
• If food becomes lodged around the blending
blades, turn the blender off by selecting “0”
on the speed control dial. Then switch the
appliance off at the power outlet and unplug
the cord. Ensure the motor and blades have
completely stopped before removing the jug
from the motor base, use a spatula to dislodge
or stir the food before continuing. Do not use
fingers as the blades are sharp.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR YOUR
KAMBROOK BLENDER
• Keep hands, fingers, hair, clothing, as well
as spatulas and other utensils away from the
blender jug during operation. Never place
your fingers, hands or utensils inside the
blender jug without unplugging the appliance
from the power outlet.
• Carefully read all instructions before
operating the blender and save for future
reference.
• Remove and safely discard any packaging
material and promotional labels before using

USING YOUR KAMBROOK
BLENDER
TIPS FOR THE BEST USE OF YOUR
KAMBROOK BLENDER
BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using your Kambrook Blender for the
first time, remove and safely discard all packaging
material and promotional labels. Ensure the
appliance is switched off at the power outlet and
power cord is unplugged.
• Ensure the maximum level on the blender jug
is not exceeded, the lid fits securely and the
inner cap is inserted.
Wash the lid, inner cap and blender jug in warm
soapy water with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry
thoroughly (refer to disassembly and cleaning
instructions).
• Use speed 2 for pureeing, smoothie or
cocktail making.
• Use speed 1 for dressings, marinades and
foods that require mixing until just combined.
• Use Pulse for mixtures that require short
bursts of power such as liquids containing ice
and nuts.
The motor base can be wiped with a damp cloth.
Dry thoroughly.
• Ensure all removable parts have been
thoroughly washed and dried before assembly.
ASSEMBLING / OPERATING YOUR
KAMBROOK BLENDER
• Ensure the blender is correctly assembled
before operating.
Place the motor base on a flat, dry surface. Ensure
that the blender is switched off by selecting “0”
on speed control dial, the power is switched off at
• Ensure the blender is used on a clean, dry
surface.
• Place liquids into blender jug before solid
ingredients except where specified in recipes.
mixture before continuing.
• Cut all food into small cubes (approx 2-3 cm
square) to achieve an even result.
• Do not process boiling liquids or hot
ingredients. Allow hot ingredients to cool
before placing them into the blender jug.
• If mixing hard and soft foods together, begin
with the hard foods, blend for a few seconds
and then add soft foods. Continue blending
until you have an even texture.
• Do not expose the glass jug to sudden
temperature changes (i.e.: immersing the jug
into hot water directly after immersing it into
cold water or vice versa.)
• To add ingredients during blending, remove
the inner cap from the lid and drop solid
ingredients or pour liquids through the feeder
hole in the lid. Use a container with a pouring
lip, such as a measuring jug, when adding
liquids.
DISASSEMBLING / CLEANING YOUR
KAMBROOK BLENDER
• Ensure the blender has stopped operation by
turning the speed control dial to “0”.
• Switch off at the power outlet and unplug the
power cord.
• Place one hand on top of the blender lid and
hold it down when processing large quantities
of thin liquids. This will prevent the lid from
popping off due to excessive pressure.
• Lift the blender jug upwards from the motor
base to remove.
• Ensure all food has been removed from the
blender jug.
• Do not blend dry ingredients in this blender.
To blend thick or heavy mixtures, use the
pulse setting and do not blend for longer
than 1 minute without switching off the
blender and stirring the ingredients with a
plastic spatula. For normal blending tasks, for
example mayonnaise, dressings, etc, do not
operate for longer than 1 minute at one time.
• Wash the blender jug, lid, and inner cap in
warm, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.
NOTE: A bottle cleaning brush may be used to clean
under and around the fixed blade assembly.
CAUTION: BLADES MUST BE
HANDLED CAREFULLY AS THEY ARE
SHARP
• Do not use the blender to store food.
• Do not use the blender to beat egg whites as
it will not incorporate air.
NOTE: Do not place any part of the blender in the
dishwasher.
• Do not use the blender to mash cooked
potatoes.
NOTE: Do not immerse the motor base, power cord
or power plug in water or any other liquid.
• Do not use the blender to knead dough or
other heavy mixtures.
CLEANING THE MOTOR BASE
• Do not use the blender as a food processor.
The motor base can be cleaned with a soft, damp
cloth (do not use abrasive agents or cloths which
can damage the surface). Dry and polish with a
soft, lint free cloth.
• Do not place large pieces of solid or frozen
foods into the blender jug. Always break
pieces before blending.
• Do not remove the blender jug or lid while
the blender is operating. Always switch off
at the power outlet and unplug at the power
outlet before removing the blender jug.
STORAGE
• Before storing, thoroughly wash and dry the
blender jug, lid and inner cap.
• Do not overfill by exceeding the maximum
mark on the blender jug. Some mixtures
increase in volume during blending.
• Assemble the blender and store on the
kitchen bench or in an easy to accessible
cupboard.
• Do not overload the blender with more than
specified amounts. Overloading could cause
the motor to stall. Switch the blender off by
turning the speed control dial to “0”, switch
