Charging
The ideal temperature range for charging is between

Make sure that the charging unit (8/10) is located on
a level surface. Connect the charging unit to the
mains via the special cord set.
For charging, place the complete handblender in the
charging unit (8) – motor part alone also possible.
For charging with the compact charging unit (10),
place the motor part (4) alone into the charging unit.
The green pilot light confirms that the appliance is
properly inserted in the charging unit and that it is
being charged.
• Full charge: ca. 2 hours
• Fully charged: the pilot light flashes with longer
intervals
• Operation time is ca. 20 minutes (depending on
way of usage)
After every usage, place the appliance back onto
the charging unit for recharging. This will make sure
that it is always ready for use with optimum charging
conditions. You may as well store the appliance on
the charging unit. Even if not in use for a long period
of time, the lithium ion batteries implemented maintain their charging level to a large extent.
The batteries are protected against deep discharge.
A completely discharged appliance has to be
charged for at least ca. 15 minutes before it can be
used for an application (e.g. soup).
