General Tips for making whole fruit smoothies
The most successful smoothies are made with a
selection of juicy and pulpy fruits (Eg. apples are
pulpy) and too much apple makes a smoothie very
pulpy. The addition of too much water or ice will
reduce the flavour.

Mixed Fruit Smoothie
VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY TIPS WHEN WORKING WITH HOT LIQUIDS
• If you turn the Saluté on Max speed with the container more than ½ full, the pressure created by the
combination of the hot liquid and the speed of the blades can force the lid off, causing the hot liquid to spill
out, creating a mess and the possibility of accidental burning.
• TO AVOID THIS HAZARD. Ensure that the jug contains no more than 3 cups of hot liquid to start. Process
on Min speed and increase the speed to Max. While the blender is running you can add more hot liquid
through the rubber lid by removing the lid plug.
• Always use the Saluté on a flat, level dry surface and the base should be placed at least 8-10 cm from the
edge of the counter.
• Always ensure that the container is properly seated in position and that the rubber lid and lid plug are
properly fitted and secured before switching the Saluté on.
• If you are processing a large quantity of liquid it is advisable to hold one hand over the lid when switching
on, just in case the lid is not properly secured.
• Never remove the jug while the motor is running.
• Always have the rubber lid on when using the tamper and if you remove the lid in-between processing
remember to replace it before using the tamper.
• Always put some water into the jug when crushing ice cubes. Pour the crushed cubes through a colander.
• Take note that the Saluté is a high speed blender, therefore the processing time is drastically reduced when
compared to a standard blender.
• If you require a burst of Max power press the Pulse switch. (The Pulse switch only operates while being
held down manually)
• If you accidentally damage the tamper it is recommended that it be replaced as a damaged tamper can
harbour bacteria and
become a health hazard.
Operational Tips
Remove the Blade-Set for cleaning or replacement
1.Turn container upside down
2.Place the supplied wrench into the retainer nut and when
it is snugly fitted, turn the wrench counter-clockwise,
while holding the jug down firmly.
3.Once the retainer nut is loosened, cover the blade
inside the jug with a cloth (to avoid cutting yourself
when removing the blade).
4.With one hand hold the blade-set and with the
other remove the retainer nut by hand.
To Replace the Blade-Set
1.Put the blade-set through the hole in the bottom of
the jug from the inside of the jug, having first covered it
with a cloth. Place the retainer nut onto the thread of the
Blade-Set underneath the jug and tighten the retainer nut
by hand.
2. Turn clockwise until tight.
3. Fit the wrench to the retainer nut and tighten.
NB Do not over tighten the retainer nut as this can cause the jug to crack
Troubleshooting Smoothie Making
If the mixture stops circulating you have an air lock.
Open the lid and push the mixture down with the tamper. Replace the lid and press the High button and use
the tamper to push the mixture into the blades until it starts to circulate.
