DIRECTIONS
When blending hot soups in an upright blender, please take the following precautions: • Only fill the blender halfway with the hot liquid. • Place a kitchen towel over the top of the blender lid and hold it down hard while you turn the machine on the lowest speed to start. • These precautions are necessary to avoid the steam pressure from the hot soup blowing the cover off.
