stoves or hobs.

• Disconnect the power plug from socket before dismantling, assembling or cleaning.

• Do not use the appliance if any part or any accessory is damaged or defective.

• A damaged supply cord or plug should be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified electrician
in order to avoid a hazard.

• Avoid touching any moving parts of the appliance. Keep hands and utensils
out of container while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or
damage to the blender. A rubber scraper or spatula may be used but only when the
jug is removed from the base. Handle or remove blade and blade assembly from the
container with extreme care to avoid injury.

• Never insert fingers, or any other objects apart from the food tamper though

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities. It is also not intended for use by those

authorized service representative. Failure to comply could result in a voided warranty.

• Do not remove the jug / containers before the motor completely stops.

• Do not run it empty or fill more than the maximum advised level as this could cause damage to
the appliance. Always begin processing on the lowest speed setting - variable speed 1. Keep hands and
other exposed skin away from the lid opening to prevent possible burns.

• When making nut butters or oil based foods, use tamper to help the mixture going through and
do not process for more than one minute after the mixture starts to circulate in the container. Processing
for longer periods can cause dangerous overheating.

• Never attempt to operate with damaged blades. Replace blades or the whole jug

• When using take regular breaks to avoid motor overheating, do not run for more than 15-20
minutes continuously

• Always clean the jugs immediately after use. Use water for most efficiently and safe way of
cleaning and blend until the jugs is clear. Empty the jug and repeat operation with clean water.

IMPORTANT:

This product is a Class1 appliance, please only use
earthed socket outlet and only
replace the plug if necessary with earthed plug

Wait until the motor completely stops before
removing the lid.

Only fill the jug to maximum indicator. When making
hot soup or using hot liquid only use 2/3 of the jug
capacity as hot liquids expand during processing.

Before staring the appliance make sure the jug is
properly fitted to the body, shake the jug gently
to guide it to the centring pad. Make sure the lid
and the lid plug is in place, twist the lid plug to
lock. Do not open the lid during operation.

When you use the tamper, only open the lid plug and
when finishing with the tamper put back the lid plug. Do
not use tamper without the lid on when unit is in
operation.

Make sure no liquid goes on the bottom of the
jug as this will affect the lifespan of the product.
If such occurrence use a paper tissue to remove
liquid as soon as possible.

When blending always start on lowest power setting
and gradually increase as necessary. If possible keep at
least 20 cm distance from the blender if using for a long
time to minimize noise impact.

After use, unplug from power socket and store
the unit in a dry place. The appliance is equipped
