General Safety Instructions

Read this manual thoroughly before first use, even if you are familiar with this
type of product. The safety precautions enclosed herein reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock and injury when correctly adhered to.

Keep the manual in a safe place for future reference, along with the
completed warranty card, purchase receipt and carton. If applicable, pass these
instructions on to the next owner of the appliance.

Always follow basic safety precautions and accident prevention measures when
using an electrical appliance, including the following:

Electrical safety and cord handling

• Voltage: Before connecting the power cord, make sure that your outlet

voltage and circuit frequency correspond to the voltage stated on the
appliance rating label.

• Water: To protect against electric shock, never operate this product with wet
hands. Never submerge the product, its cord or plug in water or other liquids.

• Power Cord: Do not kink, bend, squash or damage the power cord, and
protect it from sharp edges and heat. Do not let it hang over the edge of a
table or benchtop, or touch hot surfaces. Do not put any stress on the power
cord where it connects to the product, as the power cord could fray and break.

• No extension cord: Do not use an extension cord. Insert the plug directly into
an electrical outlet.

• Assembly: Do not plug the appliance into the power supply until it is fully
assembled. Always unplug the appliance before disassembling it or handling
the blade.

• Disconnect: Switch off the appliance and disconnect the plug from the power
supply before cleaning the appliance, before putting on or taking off parts and
when it is not in use. Grip by the plug, do not pull by the cord.

• Damage: Do not pick up or operate the appliance if the power supply cord,
plug or housing is damaged, or after it malfunctions or has been damaged.
A damaged cord or plug must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard. In case of damage, call our after sales

support line for advice.

• RCD: Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device (safety

switch), we recommend installing an RCD with a rated residual operating
current not exceeding 30mA to provide additional safety protection when
using electrical appliances. See your electrician for professional advice.

baby food, as well as for blending milkshakes,
smoothies and other drinks.

• Attach the blending shaft to the motor unit (Fig. 1)
until it locks audibly into place.

• Place the food in a blending beaker or bowl.
Do not use the supplied processing bowl for
blending. (You can use the stick mixer directly
in a saucepan, but take care with non-stick
coatings and protect yourself from splashes.)

• Plug the appliance into an electrical outlet.

• Set the variable speed control (Fig. 2) to the
appropriate speed: [1] is the lowest speed, [5]
is the highest. You can vary the speed during
operation while pressing the speed button .

• Insert the blending shaft vertically into the beaker
and, holding the motor unit firmly in your hand,
press and hold the speed button .

• Guide the blending shaft through the food using
a gentle raising and lowering motion. For an extra
boost of power, press the turbo speed button.
Pressing the turbo button will override the variable

TIP

• To ensure smooth and consistent results, cut
food into uniform sizes.

enough liquid (water, juice, milk, cream, broth
etc.) to have a smooth mixture. Add more liquid
or soft solids to adjust the consistency of the
mixture.

FAQs

Which accessory do I use for different processing tasks?

• The stick mixer (blending shaft attached to the motor unit) is perfect for
mixing and processing softer foods such as soup, fruit and vegetable puree,
baby food or smoothies.

• The chopping blade inside the processing bowl is ideal for chopping and
mixing ingredients for a dip or salsa, or for chopping cheese, onions, garlic,
herbs, vegetables, meat (without bone and cut into cubes) and nuts such as
cashews.

• The blade holder holds the slicing, grating or shredding blades in place for
even slicing or shredding of vegetables or for grating food.

• The potato masher attached to the motor unit will turn cooked potatoes into
fluffy mash.

Can I use the processing bowl for making a cake?

No. This Food Preparation System is intended for short-time operation only,
and the blades are designed to chop, slice or grate food, not for mixing dough.
However, the chopping blade in the processing bowl may be used for short
bursts of chopping/mixing, for example, when making a crumble.

Can I blend hot soup with the stick mixer?

Yes, the blending shaft is suitable for blending soups. You can use the stick
mixer directly in a saucepan, but take care with non-stick coatings and protect
yourself from hot splashes.

Can I grind coffee in the processing bowl?

No, the chopping blade is unsuitable for crushing very hard foods such coffee
beans, ice cubes, hard spices such as nutmeg or whole grains.

Are the accessories dishwasher safe?

Except for the motor unit and lid of the processing bowl, all other accessories
can be washed in the dishwasher, see opposite for more details.

How do I lock/unlock the lid of the processing bowl?

• To lock the lid, place the cover on top of the bowl, aligning the 'open lock'

symbol with the lid release button on top of the handle, then turn it clockwise to
lock. The lid release button is now aligned with the 'close lock' symbol.

• To unlock the lid, press the lid release button on top of the handle and turn the
lid anticlockwise to the 'open lock' symbol to open the bowl.
