ASSEMBLING YOUR BLENDER
BLENDER PARTS AND CARE
BLENDER PARTS AND CARE
CAUTION: Follow these important steps to assemble, tighten, and
mount blender container quickly and correctly. INJURY MAY
RESULT IF MOVING BLADES ARE EXPOSED.
COVER
The cover for your blender consists of two parts, the plastic feeder
cap and the vinyl cover. The cover is self-sealing, and is made of
vinyl which is resistant to absorption of odors and stains. The
feeder cap is removable for use as a measuring cup and provides an
opening for the addition of other ingredients.
1. Turn container up-side down so the small opening is at the top.
2. Make sure that the sealed ring on container opening is tight.
HOW YOUR BRAVETTI BLENDER WORKS
Your blender is a multi-speed appliance which operates on a wide
range of speeds from very slow to very fast. This range of speeds
makes food preparation easy, interesting and also saves time because
your blender processes foods in seconds.
ALWAYS HOLD CONTAINER WITH ONE HAND WHILE
PROCESSING!
CONTAINER
The container for the blender is graduated for easy measurement
and is made of glass. The convenient handle and pouring lip permit
easy removal of liquid mixtures while thicker mixtures are more
easily removed through the bottom opening. The glass jar is
marked with indicators for convenient measuring.
LOW SPEED MODES includes PUREE, WHIP and MIX functions.
HIGH SPEED MODES include GRATE, BLEND and LIQUEFY
functions. By touching the control buttons, you can get the speed
mode you need.
PROCESSING ASSEMBLY
The processing assembly consists of three parts: a sealing ring used
as a cushion between the container and the agitator; agitator of
high-grade stainless steel; a threaded container bottom.
Another choice is PULSE to crush ice.
MOTOR AND MOTOR BASE
The powerful multi-speed motor is the heart of the appliance and is
designed just for this unit. It is completely enclosed within the
housing.
1. Follow assembly steps as described above.
2. Fill container with 2 cups of ice cubes.
3. Place lid assembly on container.
4. Spin the knob to the ICE CRUSH/PULSE position.
5. Ice can be crushed by continuously spinning the knob until
desired consistency is reached.
6. Let go of the knob and let it revert to the OFF position
automatically. Unplug appliance.
7. Remove container from blender base.

DO'S AND DON'TS
DO:
DON'T:
• DON’T expect your blender to replace all of your kitchen
appliances. It will not: mash potatoes, whip egg whites or
substitutes for dairy toppings, grind raw meat, knead or mix stiff
dough, or extract juices from fruits and vegetables.
• Use only the line voltage and frequency as specified on the bottom
of the blender.
• Always operate blender on a clean, dry surface to prevent air from
carrying foreign material or water into the motor.
• DON’T process mixtures too long. Remember, the blender
performs its tasks in seconds, not minutes. It is better to stop and
check the consistency after a few seconds than to overblend and
have a mushy or too finely ground product.
• DON’T overload the motor with extra-heavy or extra-large loads.
If the motor stalls, turn off immediately, unplug cord from outlet
and remove a portion of the load before beginning again.
• DON’T attempt to remove blender container from motor base or
replace it until the motor has coasted to a complete stop. Blender
parts can be damaged.
• DON’T remove container cover while processing, as food
spillage can occur. Use feeder cap opening to add ingredients.
• DON’T place or store processing assembly on motor base
without first correctly assembling to blender container. Severe
injury can result if blender is accidentally turned on.
• DON’T use any utensil, including spatulas, in the container while
the motor is running. They can catch in the moving blades, break
the container and cause severe injury.
• Put liquid portions of recipes into blender container first unless the
instructions in recipes specify otherwise.
• Cut all firm fruits and vegetables, cooked meats, fish and seafoods
into pieces no larger, than 3/4" (1.8 cm) to 1" (2.5 cm). Cut all
kinds of cheeses into pieces no larger than 3/4" (1.8 cm).
• Use rubber spatula to push ingredients to be chopped into liquid
portion of recipe ONLY when motor is OFF.
• Place cover firmly on blender container before starting, and rest
hand on the container cover when starting and running motor.
• Remove heavy dips and spreads, nut butters, mayonnaise and
products of similar consistency by removing the processing
assembly and pushing the mixture out through the bottom opening
into serving dishes or storage container.
• Pour mixture if liquid or semi-liquid consistency, such as muffin
and cake batter,from blender container.
•
Allow cooked vegetables and broth to cool before pouring into
blender container for processing.
• DON’T use ANY container not recommended by manufacturer
for processing foods.
Switch to the next higher speed if the motor seems to labor when
processing at one of the lower speeds to prevent overloading of the
motor.
Other containers may break or loosen during processing and cause
severe injury.

Periodically check all parts before re-assembly. If the processing
blades are stuck or difficult to turn, DO NOT USE BLENDER.
Check by carefully turning the blades in a counter clockwise
direction (opposite edges are sharp). Blades should turn freely. If
the glass container is chipped or cracked DO NOT USE
BLENDER. Further use could result in the container breaking
during use. Use only Bravetti recommended replacement parts
available at an authorized service facility or the factory. USE OF
DAMAGED OR NON-RECOMMENDED PARTS COULD
RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR
DAMAGE TO THE BLENDER.
CAUTION: BLADES ARE SHARP. HANDLE
CAREFULLY.
NEVER IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER. The
housing can be cleaned with a damp cloth (unplug first). The motor
is permanently lubricated and does not require any additional
lubrication. ANY SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED
BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE FACILITY.
CAUTION: NEVER PLACE BLENDER MOTOR
BASE OF APPLIANCE IN WATER OR
OTHER LIQUIDS.
1. Immediately after each use, disassemble lid and cutting
assembly. Carefully wash all parts in warm soapy water.
Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not wash parts in
dishwasher.
2. Do not use a harsh abrasive on any part of the blender.
