  • It is recommended that most foods be cut into ½-inch to 1-inch pieces to achieve the most uniform result.
  • If food sticks to the sides of the cup when blending, stop the blender, carefully scrape down the food, replace blade assembly and blend again to combine.
  • When blending thicker mixtures, lightly hold down the top of travel cup to prevent jumping.
  • After blending, flip the travel cup over so that the blade assembly is on the top. Gently tap the travel cup a few times to prevent any spillage. Remove the blade assembly and replace with lid.
  • Some recipes may require more than a minute of blending. Simply start blender again, once the minute of continuous blending has elapsed.

WARRANTY

Limited Three-Year Warranty

This warranty is available to U.S. consumers only. You are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart® EvolutionX™ Cordless Rechargeable Compact Blender that was purchased at retail for personal, family or household use. Except as otherwise required under applicable law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other commercial purchasers or owners. We warrant that your Cuisinart® EvolutionX™ Cordless Rechargeable Compact Blender will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal home use for 3 years from the date of original purchase. We recommend that you visit our website, www.cuisinart.com for a fast, efficient way to complete your product registration.

However, product registration does not eliminate the need for the consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in order to obtain the warranty benefits. In the event that you do not have proof of purchase date, the purchase date for purposes of this warranty will be the date of manufacture.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY

California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store that sells Cuisinart products of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its preference, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If neither of the above two options results in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility, if service or repair can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund for nonconforming products under warranty. California residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair or, if necessary, replacement by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and handling for such nonconforming products under warranty.

Your Cuisinart® EvolutionX™ Cordless Rechargeable Compact Blender has been manufactured to the strictest specifications and has been designed for use only in 120-volt outlets and only with authorized accessories and replacement parts. This warranty expressly excludes any defects or damages caused by attempted use of this unit with a converter, as well as use with accessories, replacement parts or repair service other than those authorized by Cuisinart.
