Remove the lid and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the jar and to redistribute the food, pushing food toward the blades. Replace the lid and continue blending.
• When making bread crumbs, make sure the blender jar is completely dry.
• When using the PULSE function, use short bursts. Allow the blades to stop rotating between pulses. Do not use PULSE for more than 2 minutes.
