IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
BLADES ARE SHARP. HANDLE CAREFULLY. STORE OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
- The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, oa or a lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instructions concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
- Close supervision is necessary when an appliance is used by or near children.

- Unplug from the outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning or removing contents from the jug.
- Never put your hands into the jug or handle the blades with the appliance plugged in.
- To protect against fire, electric shock, and injuries to persons, do not place the cord, plug, or base unit in water or other liquids.
- To reduce the risk of injury, never place any blade assembly on the base unit unless assembled to the jug or bottle.
- The use of attachments, including canning or ordinary jars, not recommended or sold by Braun, may cause fire, electrical shock, or risk of injury to persons.
- Regularly inspect the power cord, power plug, and actual appliance for any damage. Do not operate if damaged in any way or after the appliance malfunctions. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized Braun service center for examination, repair, or adjustment.
- Avoid any contact with blades or movable parts.
- Do not use outdoors or for anything other than its intended purpose.
- Do not use the blender for anything other than food and/or beverage preparation. Misuse may cause injury.
- Never leave your blender unattended while it is running.
- Keep hands and utensils out of the jug while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender itself. A rubber or plastic spatula may be used, but it must be used only when the blender is turned OFF.
- Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch a hot surface.
- A flashing light indicates ready to operate. Avoid inadvertent contact with the touch screen or start/stop button.
- Do not operate without the lid in place. Remain the measuring cap in place when blending hot liquids.

- The tamper provided must be used only when the main part of the lid is in place.
- Never attempt to operate without the centering pad.
- Be careful when blending hot liquids in the jug using the manual mode. Start blending on speed 1 to avoid possible burns due to escaping steam and splashes. The maximum allowed amount of hot liquid ingredients in the jug is 6 cups / 48 fl oz.
- Do not insert hot ingredients (warmer than 25 °C / 75 °F) when using the hot soup function, i.e., the program soup with texture smooth.
- The coupling seat may be hot after running– do not touch it.
- The maximum rating is based on the jug that draws the greatest power, and other recommended attachments may draw significantly less power.

The pulse mode can be used to break apart larger pieces of food or to control the texture of food when chopping. Pulse at desired speed. Duration depends on how long you press the START/STOP button.
Using the Double Function Measuring Cap
During operation, use the measuring cap to slowly add oil through the dripping hole to emulsify sauces and dressings (A) or easily add small amounts of liquids (B).
Using the Tamper
It helps to push unmixed ingredients down from the jug wall and to bring thick mixtures into the blades while blending. The supplied tamper will not touch the blade when used through the opening of the measuring cap.
Blending with the Smoothie2Go Bottle
Note: When using the Smoothie2Go bottle, the program’s smoothie and ice crush are available for use. The Smoothie2Go bottle must not be used to blend hot foods or carbonated liquids.

Thermal Motor Protection

For Best Results
- If the blending action stops during blending, there may not be enough liquid to blend efficiently. Add some more liquid or insert the tamper and stir slowly.
- For preparing small amounts of food, use a low speed level.
- When chopping nuts, chees,e and me, at we recommend runnig the selected program/ texture twice to achieve desired results.
- When chopping vegetables, we recommend adding a small amount of water to improve the circulation. After finishing, strain your chopped ingredients.
- Fill the jug in the following order: Liquids, dry goods, leafy greens, soft ingredients, hard or frozen ingredients, ice cubes. Fill the ingredients in the reverse order into the Smoothie2Go bottle.
- When blending in manual mode, always start at speed 1 and gradually increase to the desired speed.
- When chopping solid ingredients (such as parmesan, chocolate, or meat), cut them up into small pieces (1×1 inch).
Care and Cleaning
We recommend cleaning the jug by using the CLEAN program to prolong its lifetime. The program will automatically stop once it completes the cycle.
Fill the jug halfway with water, add a few drops of dishwashing soap, and follow the steps described hereafter. The same procedure applies for the Smoothie2Go bottle.
For best results, run the CLEAN program immediately after use. Make sure to thoroughly rinse and air-dry the jug after completion of the program.
Do not use the sanitizing program for the dishwasher-safe parts. The sanitization cycle could damage your product.
Deep Cleaning
We recommend performing a deep cleaning of the jug every month using a vinegar solution to remove food residues and stains.
Prepare the vinegar solution in the jug: dilute 16 fl oz of vinegar (5% acid) in 16 fl oz of water (1:1 ratio) and start the CLEAN program. Allow the mixture to stand in the jug for a maximum of 5 minutes. Rinse the jug well after each deep cleaning and allow it to air dry.
