BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Carefully unpack the blender and accessories, and remove any packaging. Wipe the power
handle with a damp cloth, then dry. Do not immerse in water. All other parts can be cleaned
in warm, soapy water, or in the dishwasher.

CAUTION: Please handle the blender stick and chopping blade with extreme care.

BLENDING

Soups, sauces, dips, mayonnaise, milkshakes and baby food can be blended in moments.
Use the blending beaker, your own mixing bowl, or blend directly in a saucepan (take the
pan off the heat and allow the contents to cool first).

CAUTION: Before preparing baby food, always ensure the blender is thoroughly sterilised.

1. Push the blender stick onto the power handle, and turn until it locks. Plug into the

mains socket.

2. To prevent splashing, lower the blender stick into the food before switching on - press

the top button for low speed and the bottom button for high speed. Keep a firm hold of
the beaker, bowl or saucepan handle as you blend.

TIP: The lid of the blending beaker doubles up as a base to help keep the beaker steady on
your worktop.

3. Keep the Stick Blender upright and do not let any liquid reach the power handle.

Release the speed button at any time to change speed or stop blending.

4. Unplug before removing the blender stick and cleaning.

WHISKING

The balloon whisk is suitable for whipping cream, egg whites, light sponge mixes
and instant desserts.

1. Push the blender stick into the whisk collar, and turn until it locks. Plug into the

mains socket.

2. To prevent splashing, lower the whisk into the food before switching on – press the top

button for slow whisking and the bottom button for fast whisking. Keep a firm hold of
the beaker or bowl as you whisk.

3. Keep the whisk upright and do not let liquid reach the whisk collar. Release the speed

button at any time to change speed or stop whisking.

4. Unplug before removing the whisk and cleaning.

CHOPPING

Meat, cheese, onion, fresh herbs, garlic and nuts can all be successfully chopped using the
chopping bowl and blade. However, hard foods such as coffee beans, ice cubes, nutmeg
and spices will damage the blade and should be avoided.

1. Carefully remove the safety cover from the chopping blade. Holding the blade by its

plastic spindle, lower it onto the pin in the chopping bowl.

2. Cut your ingredients into small pieces (up to 1” (2.5cm)) and add to the chopping bowl.

See CHOPPING GUIDE.

3. Place the cover on the chopping bowl. Fit the power handle into the cover, turning until

it locks into place.

4. Plug into the mains socket. Take a firm hold of the chopping bowl and switch on – press

the top button for low speed and the bottom button for high speed. Release the button
at any time to change speed or stop chopping.

5. When you have finished chopping, unplug and remove the power handle from the

bowl cover.

6. Be sure the blade has completely stopped before removing the cover. Carefully lift out the

blade, then empty the bowl.
