IMPORTANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
The use of any electrical
appliance requires the
following of basic common
sense safety rules.
Primarily there is danger of
injury or death and
secondly the danger of
damage to the appliance.
These are indicated in the
text by the following two
conventions:
WARNING: Danger to
the person!
IMPORTANT: Damage to
the appliance!
In addition we offer the
following essential safety
advice.
Location
• Remove all packaging and
retain for future reference.
• Ensure the appliance is
used on a firm, flat surface.
• Do not use the appliance
outdoors or in a bathroom.
• Do not place the appliance

on or near a hot surface
such as a hot plate or
radiant rings or near a
naked flame.
• Do not let the mains lead
overhang the edge of the
table or work-top, or touch
hot surfaces.
Children
• Children do not understand
the dangers associated
with operating electrical
appliances. Never allow
children to use this
appliance.
Personal safety
• Avoid touching moving
parts. Keep hands, hair,
clothing as well as spatula
and other utensils away
from chopper blades
during operation, to
prevent personal injury
and/or damage to the
appliance.
• WARNING: To protect
against risk of
electric shock NEVER
immerse the
appliance body in
water or in any other
liquid and always
ensure the electrical
connections are kept
dry.
Other safety
considerations
• Always disconnect the
blender from the supply if
it is left unattended and
before assembling,
dissembling or cleaning.
• Never pull on the cord to
unplug the appliance.
• Do not operate any
appliance with a damaged
cord or plug or after the

Top tips
• When blending foods with
strong colour (eg. carrots) the
plastic parts of the appliance
may become discoloured. Wipe
with cooking oil to clean any
discoloured parts.
• For blending and chopping,
select a slow speed for soft
ingredients, increase the speed
to produce the consistency
required.
• Select a high speed for
chopping or blending hard
ingredients.
• When using the blending leg,
start the process by plunging
the blender into the ingredients.
This will ensure all the
ingredients are pulled into the
blade to be processed.
Continue this movement until
the mixture is to the desired
consistency.
• Do not lift the blender head out
of the mixture as splashing may
occur.
