edge of a worktop where a child could reach it.

• Do not let the charger lead run across an

open space e.g. between a low socket and table.

metal blades as they are very sharp. Do not touch the blade or hold the leg at this end when fitting to the body.

•WARNING: To remove the blender

leg, hold blender in a position so you cannot press the operating button, grip shaft of blender leg, press the release button and pull apart.

•WARNING: Always remove the blender leg before cleaning, this will reduce accidental operation of the blender.

• Don’t clean the blender leg under running water while still attached to the main housing.

•WARNING: To protect against fire, electric shock and personal injury do not immerse charger, base or blender in water or other liquid.

Children

•Teach children to be aware of dangers in the kitchen, warn them of the dangers of reaching up to areas where they cannot see properly or should not be reaching.

Other safety considerations

• Do not operate any appliance with a

damaged charger lead or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact our helpline for advice on examination and repair.

• Do not place on or near a hot gas or

electric burner or in an heated oven.

Unpacking your cordless hand blender

WARNING: Carefully unpack your hand blender as blades are very sharp.

Wash all parts before first use, see cleaning instructions page 10.

Assembly

1 Fit the blender body and blender leg

onto the base unit as shown. A 2 Attach the charging adaptor plug into

the socket on the base unit. B 3 Plug the adaptor into a suitable 13A

socket outlet and switch on.

Charging

1 Attach the blender to the base unit as

described in assembly. The red light will illuminate to show that the body is correctly located in the base and that it is accepting a charge.

• If the red light is not illuminated, lift up the blender body and relocate in the base.

• The unit is designed to be left on continuous charge. The ‘smart’ charger fully charges and maintains the charge ready for use. A full charge can be reached in 3 hours, in normal use recharging is 1 to 2 hours.

• Leaving the unit on continuous charge is inexpensive in terms of the amount of electricity being used.

• When the unit is fully charged the red light will go out and green will illuminate to show it is fully charged and maintained. IMPORTANT: When new and charging for

the first time or the blender has not been on charge for a long period the battery will be discharged.

• The green light may illuminate within 15 minutes, this is a false indication which is common with discharged batteries. Switch off at the mains then switch back on, this will reactivate the charging cycle. Red light will illuminate to show charging has started.

• Repeat this procedure if it happens again. Charging will now revert to normal and take approx 3 hours to fully charge.
