Blender Features
This Blender was built and tested to
KitchenAid quality standards for optimum
performance and long, trouble-free life.
Robust Motor
Rugged 0.9-horsepower motor supplies
the power for superb performance with
all blending tasks – from pureeing sauces
to making chunky salsas, or uniformly
crushing a pitcher of ice or frozen fruit
within seconds for silky smoothies.
Easy Pour 1.5 L
Glass Pitcher
Glass Pitcher resists scratches,
stains and odors. Pitcher is
removable from locking collar
for easy cleaning, and withstands a range
of extreme temperatures. Easy pour spout
provides smooth, drip-free pouring.
Stay-Put Lid with Clear, 60 mL
Ingredient Cup
Provides a strong seal. The flexible lid
will maintain its tight seal throughout
the life of the Blender. The lid incorporates
a removable 60 mL cup for convenience
in measuring and adding ingredients.
Stainless Steel Blade
Sharp oversized blade tines are positioned
on four different planes for fast, thorough,
and consistent blending.
Locking Collar and Blade Assembly
Durable, one-piece blade design is built
into the locking collar for easy handling and
cleaning. This assembly keeps the blades
from rotating until the pitcher is properly
attached to the collar and put on the Blender
base.
Durable Steel-Reinforced Couplers
Commercial-quality couplers with 12
interlocking teeth provide direct transfer
of motor power to the blade. Pitcher
coupler is coated for quiet operation.
Speed Selection Buttons
Create frozen drinks and puree sauces or
soups in seconds. Blend with confidence,
control, and consistency at all speed settings:
STIR ( ) , CHOP ( ), MIX ( ), PUREE
( ), and LIQUEFY ( ). The PULSE
( ) mode works with all five speeds.
The CRUSH ICE ( ) feature is designed
specifically for crushing ice and will
automatically pulse at staggered intervals
for optimal results.
Intelli-Speed Motor Control
Exclusive Intelli-Speed control automatically
works to keep speed constant – even
through density changes when ingredients
are added. This advanced KitchenAid design
maintains an optimal blending speed for
each culinary task and control-pad setting.
Soft Start Blending Feature
The Blender starts at a slower speed
to pull food into the blade then quickly
increases to selected speed setting. This
design feature reduces start-up kick and
allows hands-free operation.
Die-Cast Metal Base
Heavy, die-cast metal base ensures stable,
quiet operation when blending a full pitcher
of ingredients. Four rubber feet on wide,
solid base provide a no-slip, non-marring
grip. Smooth and rounded, the base is
easy to clean and features cord storage
underneath.
Clean Touch Control Pad
Wipes clean in an instant. Smooth
control pad has no crevices or cracks
to trap ingredients.
