UTTONS

:

“ON” - runs the unit continuously.  Use this speed for the 

final stages of mixing and dispensing. 

“OFF” - turns off the appliance. 

“PULSE” - gives short bursts of power at high speed.  Use “PULSE” to begin the 

mixing of ice and other hard ingredients. 

The Smoothie Splash

™

 blending jar is conveniently marked to create perfect 

smoothies.  To make your favorite frozen drinks, follow the steps below. 

1.  ADD LIQUIDS – Add any combination of liquid ingredients up to the “LIQUIDS” 

mark under “SERVES 3” located on the blending jar.  Liquids include any soft 

ingredients such as fruit, milk, fruit juice, herbal supplements, or yogurt in any 

combination you think would be tasty.

We are, of course, partial to the Back to Basics

®

 smoothie mixes, which quickly 

and easily make three delicious 8-ounce smoothies. 

2.  ADD ICE – Add ice or frozen ingredients until the total level reaches the 

“FROZEN INGREDIENTS” line on the side of the blending jar.  Frozen 

ingredients include ice, frozen fruit, frozen yogurt, ice cream, etc. 

3.  SMOOTH IT – With the lid on and the stir stick (use as directed below) set in the 

hole in the lid, pulse the mixture 2 or 3 times by pressing the 

“PULSE” button.  Then press the button to “ON” and blend until 

the ingredients are completely mixed.   

STIR STICK OPERATION – When in use and while the 

machine is running, stir or rotate the Stir Stick in a counter-

clockwise direction so that the Stir Stick scrapes or contacts 

the sides of the blending jar.  This stirring operation will aid in 

mixing the contents of the blending jar by forcing the 

ingredients into the mixing blades. 

4.  SERVE IT – To serve the smoothie, press the switch to “ON,” 

place a cup under the valve and press down the valve lever.  

Stir the contents in the blending jar with the stir stick while dispensing thick 

smoothies.  As the smoothie level reaches the bottom of the blending jar, a thick 

mix may stop dispensing.  Add a few tablespoons of liquid to increase flow.  

When the blending jar is empty, turn the machine “OFF” and enjoy.  You can 

continue making smoothies one after another, but be sure to give the smoothie 

maker a 5-minute break after 3 minutes of continuous use.
