safety

IMPORTANT: HOT BLENDING INSTRUCTIONS

To minimise the possibility of scalding when blending hot ingredients keep hands and other exposed skin away from the lid to prevent possible burns. The following precautions must be observed:

●CAUTION: Blending very hot ingredients may result in hot liquid

and steam being forced suddenly past the lid or filler cap .

●We recommend that hot ingredients are allowed to cool before blending.

●NEVER exceed 1200ml / 5 cups capacity if processing hot liquids, such as soups (refer to the markings on the goblet).

●ALWAYS commence blending at a low speed and gradually increase the speed. NEVER blend hot liquids by using the pulse setting.

●Liquids which tend to foam such as milk, should be limited to a maximum capacity of 1000ml/4 cups.

●Take care when handling the blender as the goblet and its contents will be very hot.

●Take particular care when removing the lid. The lid is designed to be a tight fit to prevent leakage. If necessary protect your hands with a cloth or oven gloves when handling.

●Ensure the goblet is securely attached to the base and when removing from the appliance, guide the base and ensure it is removed together with the goblet.

●Ensure that the lid and filler cap are securely in place before every blending operation.

●Always ensure that the vents in the filler cap

are clear before every blending operation

.

●When fitting the lid to the goblet always ensure that the lid and goblet rim are clean and dry to ensure a good seal and prevent spillage.

before plugging in

● Make sure your electricity supply is the same as the one shown on the underside of the appliance.

Important - UK only

● The wires in the cord are coloured as follows:

Blue = Neutral

Brown = Live.

● The appliance must be protected by a 13A approved (BS1362) fuse.

Note:

● For non-rewireable plugs the fuse cover MUST be refitted when replacing the fuse. If the fuse cover is lost then the plug must not be used until a replacement can be obtained. The correct fuse cover is identified by colour and a replacement may be obtained from your Kenwood Authorised Repairer (see Service).

● If a non-rewireable plug is cut off it must be DESTROYED IMMEDIATELY. An electric shock hazard may arise if an unwanted non-rewireable plug is inadvertently inserted into a 13A socket outlet.

hints

●To blend dry ingredients - cut into pieces, remove the filler cap, then with the machine running, drop the pieces down one by one. Keep your hand over the opening. For best results empty regularly.

●The processing of spices is not recommended as they may damage the plastic parts.

●When making mayonnaise, put all the ingredients, except the oil, into the blender. Remove the filler cap. Then, with the appliance running, add the oil slowly through the hole in the lid.

●Thick mixtures, e.g. pâtés and dips, may need scraping down. If the mixture is difficult to process, add more liquid.
