IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be taken, including the following:

  1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
  2. Always make sure the juice extractor cover is clamped securely in place before the motor is turned on. Do not unfasten clamps while the juicer is in operation. Be sure to turn the switch to the STOP position after each use of your juice extractor. Make sure the motor stops completely before disassembling.
  3. Do not put fingers or other objects into the juice extractor opening while it is in operation. If food becomes stuck in the opening, use the food pusher or another piece of fruit or vegetable to push it down, or turn the motor off and disassemble the unit to remove the remaining food.
  4. If the mesh filter basket blade is damaged, do not use it.
  5. Do not operate without the pulp container in place.

ASSEMBLY, USE, AND CARE

To use your Cuisinart® SmartPower Duet® Blender/Food Processor, begin by assembling the blender jar.

  1. Turn the blender jar (a) upside down, and place it flat on a sturdy surface.
  2. Position the rubber gasket (b) on the round opening at the bottom of the blender jar.
  3. Turn the cutting assembly (c) upside down, and place the blade end in the blender jar opening. Note: Blades are very sharp, handle carefully.

  7. Plug in the power cord. Your blender is now ready to be used.

BLENDER OPERATION

  1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart® SmartPower Duet® Blender/Food Processor on a flat, sturdy surface. It is important that the surface be clean and dry. Assemble the blender by following the Assembly instructions.

    Note:
    Add liquid ingredients first, then follow with solid ingredients. This will provide more consistent blending and prevent unnecessary stress on the motor.
