button.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always unplug your Cuisinart® SmartPower Classic™ Blender from the
electrical outlet before cleaning. The blender is made of corrosion-
resistant parts which are easy to clean. Before first use and after every
use, clean each part thoroughly. Periodically check all parts before
reassembly. If any part is damaged or blender jar is chipped or
cracked, DO NOT USE BLENDER.
5. Pulse Mode: The pulse mode allows you to create a burst of power
for quick, efficient blending. To use the pulse function, choose a
speed for blending your ingredients. Push and release the PULSE
button. Repeat as desired. You determine the duration of each
pulse. While you are pulsing, the LED indicator light will glow. The
pulse function can be used to break apart larger pieces of food or
to control the texture of food when chopping. The pulse function is
also effective in starting the blending process when you do not
want continuous power, or when processing items that do not
require an extended amount of blending.
Remove the blender jar from the motor base by lifting straight up and
away. Twist off the locking ring by turning counterclockwise. Remove
the cutting assembly and rubber gasket. Wash in warm soapy water,
rinse, and dry thoroughly.
Place the locking ring in the upper rack of the dishwasher or wash in
warm water.
CAUTION: Handle the cutting assembly carefully. It is SHARP and may
cause injury. Do not attempt to remove blades from cutting assembly.
6. To crush ice: The Cuisinart® SmartPower Classic™ Blender motor
is strong enough to crush ice without liquid at any speed; however,
for your convenience, we have preset the best speed for ice crush-
ing. To give you greater control, the ice crush function automatically
operates as a pulse function. To crush ice, place ice cubes in the
blender jar, and place the cover and the measured pour lid on the
blender jar. Press the ICE CRUSH button. Press the ICE CRUSH
button in short pulses until ice is crushed to desired consistency.
See the Recipe Tips section on page 8 for more details.
Remove the blender jar cover and the measured pour lid. Wash in
warm, soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly, or place in upper rack of
dishwasher. The blender jar must be washed in warm, soapy water and
rinsed and dried thoroughly. The blender jar can also be placed upside
down in dishwasher.
Finally, wipe the motor base clean with a damp cloth to remove any
residue, and dry thoroughly. Never submerge the motor base in water
or other liquid, or place in a dishwasher.

Tip: You may wish to clean your blender cutting assembly as follows:
Squirt a small amount of dishwashing liquid into assembled blender jar
and fill halfway with warm water. Select Mix and run for 30 seconds, or
as needed. Repeat, using clean tap water. Empty blender jar and
carefully disassemble parts. Wash cutting assembly, gasket and
locking ring in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly.
•
•
When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs,
nuts, spices, etc, make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly
are completely dry.
Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop
rotating between pulses. If food tends to stick to the sides of the
blender jar when blending, pulse in short bursts.
DON’T:
DOs AND DON’Ts WHEN USING
•
•
Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar.
YOUR BLENDER
Don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base
without the blender jar attached.
DO:
•
Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that
stated on the bottom of the blender motor base.
•
•
•
•
•
Don’t attempt to mash potatoes, knead heavy dough, or beat
egg whites.
•
•
Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.
Don’t remove blender jar while unit is on. Keep the blender jar
cover on the blender jar while blending.
Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then add
remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are
uniformly mixed.
Don’t twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender jar
from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.
•
•
•
•
Cut most foods into approximately ½-inch (1.3 cm) to 1-inch
(2.5 cm) cubes to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses
into pieces no larger than ½-inch (1.3 cm).
Don’t overprocess foods. Blender will achieve most desired results
in seconds, not minutes.
Don’t overload blender. If the motor stalls, press STOP button
immediately, unplug the unit, and remove a portion of the food,
then continue.
Use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such
as alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have
been added.
•
•
Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while the motor is on.
Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the blender
is turned off. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur to
the blender jar or cutting assembly.
Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by
Cuisinart. Doing so may result in injury.
Place cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the
cover on.
•
•
Don’t place hands inside the blender jar when blender is
plugged in.
•
•
Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.
Don’t add boiling liquids or frozen foods (except ice cubes or
½-inch pieces of frozen fruit) to glass blender jar. Boiling liquids
should cool for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar.
Always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber gasket
before cleaning.
•
When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food from
the sides of the blender jar and place food in the center of the
blender jar, over the cutting assembly.

RECIPE TIPS
The simple recipes that follow include some old Cuisinart favorites as
well as some creative combinations that are sure to please your friends
and family. Thanks to the superior ice crushing power of the Cuisinart®
SmartPower Classic™ Blender, you’ll also be able to make delicious fro-
zen drinks.
Grinding Spices: For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly
must be clean and dry. Add ¼–½ cup of spices/seeds/peppercorns to
blender jar. Select Chop and pulse 10–15 times. Then blend continu-
ously until desired texture is achieved. Press STOP button.
Chopping Nuts: Place ½ cup shelled nuts in the blender jar and cover
blender. Select Chop and pulse until desired chop is achieved. Pulse
fewer times for coarsely chopped nuts. For best results process small
amounts, ½ cup or less.
Whipping Cream: If possible, chill blender jar and cutting assembly in
refrigerator for 15 minutes. Add 1 cup heavy or whipping cream to
blender jar. Cover jar. Select Stir (1-second pulses) 20–30 times until
cream is thickened. (Do not overprocess – bits of butter will begin to
appear.) If desired add 1 tablespoon sugar and 1–2 teaspoons of
vanilla or other flavoring. Consistency with be that of a thickened but
not fluffy whipped cream and is most appropriate for topping desserts
or coffee drinks.
When using the Cuisinart® SmartPower Classic™ Blender to purée hot
mixtures such as creamed soups and baby foods, strain the solids
from the liquid, reserving the cooking liquid. Then place the cooked
solids in the blender jar along with ½ to 1 cup of the reserved cooking
liquid. Use the Pulse to chop, then blend until desired consistency/
purée is reached. Blending hot mixtures is often better done in several
batches.
Bread, Cookie or Cracker Crumbs: Break or cut bread, cookies or
crackers into pieces ½-inch or less in size. For best bread results, use
day-old bread (drier bread works best). Place bread, cookie or cracker
pieces in blender jar. Select Purée and pulse to chop, then blend con-
tinuously until desired texture of crumbs is achieved. For best results
process 1 cup or less at a time.
Crushing Ice: Add up to 10 standard ice cubes to the blender jar.
Cover. Press the Ice Crush button, using short bursts, 10 times, or until
cubes are the consistency of snow. Press STOP button. Pulse fewer
times if coarsely chopped ice is desired.
Grating Fresh Citrus Zest: For best results, blender jar and cutting
assembly must be clean and dry. Remove zest from fruit in strips using
a vegetable peeler; use a sharp knife to remove the bitter white pith
from the underside of the zest. Cut strips in half. Process no more than
8 strips at a time (zest of 1 medium lemon). Add strips and 1 or more
teaspoons of sugar or coarse salt (from recipe) to the blender jar. Cover
blender jar. Select Purée; blend for 15–20 seconds. Press STOP button.
Allow hot foods to cool slightly before blending to prevent steam build-
up which may cause the lid to lift up from the blender jar. Cover top of
covered blender jar with a clean dish towel and hold down gently before
and while blending.
Keep your blender out on the counter within easy reach and you will be
surprised how often you will use it.
Baby Food: Combine ½ cup cooked vegetables, fruit or meat with
3–4 tablespoons liquid (water, milk, fruit juice, broth, or cooking liquid)
from the family’s meal in the blender jar. Select Liquefy. Blend for
15–20 seconds until a smooth purée is reached. Add more liquid as
necessary and process further until desired texture is reached. For
“junior” type foods, select Purée and use the pulse. Always consult
with your pediatrician/family physician concerning the best foods for
your baby and when to introduce new foods to his/her diet.
Keep ice cubes made of juices, yogurt, milk or fruit purées on hand
and use instead of plain ice to make smoothies and frosty beverages
without diluting the drink.
For quick cleaning, add 1 cup of warm water and a drop of liquid dish
soap to the blender jar. Cover and blend on Mix for 30–40 seconds.
Discard the soapy water and rinse blender thoroughly before the
next use.
Grinding Hard Cheese: Cut cheese into ½-inch pieces; remove all
outer hard rind. Place cheese in blender jar. Select Chop or Mix.
Xanthan gum may be added to dressings and marinades to prevent
separation.

heat. Add the onion, celery, and carrot, cover loosely and cook until the
vegetables are tender, 8–10 minutes. Stir in the rice and basil, and cook
until rice is opaque, 2 minutes. Stir in the stock and tomatoes. Raise
heat and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover loosely and simmer over
low heat for 20–25 minutes. Turn off heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
Melt the butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and
cook until soft but not brown, about 2–3 minutes. Add asparagus,
stock, and all but 1 tablespoon of the reserved parsley. Cover and
bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer,
partially covered, until asparagus is tender, about 10–12 minutes.

to cool 5 minutes. Place the solids in the blender jar with 1 cup of the
cooking liquid; return the remaining liquid to the saucepan. Cover
blender jar and select Purée. Blend until creamy and smooth, about
25–30 seconds. Turn blender off. Return puréed vegetable mixture to

into water, and add to soup. Add salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often,
over medium heat, until soup thickens, about 6–8 minutes. Do not allow
to boil. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve in warmed bowls
garnished with the remaining parsley.
Strain the solids from the cooking liquid, reserving the cooking liquid
and returning it to the saucepan. Place the solids in the blender jar.

until totally smooth and creamy. Add the salt, pepper, blend 5 seconds
longer. Return the blended tomato mixture to the cooking liquid in the
saucepan. Heat on medium until it just begins to simmer; then add the
half-and-half. Do not allow to boil. The soup may be made ahead and
reheated – if making ahead, do not add half-and-half until it is
reheated.

calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190.
Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and
shipping and handling for such nonconforming products under
warranty.
Before Returning Your Cuisinart® Product If you are experiencing
problems with your Cuisinart® product, we suggest that you call our
Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-0190 before returning the
product for servicing. Often, our Consumer Service Representatives
can help solve the problem without having the product serviced. If
servicing is needed, a Representative can confirm whether the product
is under warranty and direct you to the nearest service location.
This warranty supersedes all previous warranties on Cuisinart®
SmartPower Classic™ 6-Speed Blenders. This warranty is available
to consumers only. You are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart®
SmartPower Classic™ 6-Speed Blender that was purchased at retail for
personal, family, or household use. Except as otherwise required under
applicable state law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other
commercial purchasers or owners.
We warrant that your Cuisinart® SmartPower Classic™ 6-Speed Blender
will be free of defects in material or workmanship under normal home
use for three years from the date of original purchase. We suggest that
you complete and return the enclosed warranty registration card
promptly to facilitate verification of the date of original purchase.
However, return of the warranty registration card is not a condition of
this warranty and does not eliminate the need for the consumer to
maintain the original proof of purchase. In the event that you do not
have the proof of purchase date, the purchase date for purposes of this
warranty will be the date of manufacture. If your blender should prove
to be defective within the warranty period, we will repair it (or, if we
think it necessary, replace it) without charge to you.
* Important: If the nonconforming product is to be serviced by
someone other than Cuisinart’s Authorized Service Center, please
remind the servicer to call our Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-
0190 to ensure that the problem is properly diagnosed, the product is
serviced with the correct parts, and to ensure that the product is still
under warranty.
