WHAT THE ACCESSORIES ARE USED FOR

Shown below are the main tasks that you would use the accessories for. Please note that some of the accessories fit onto the spindle.

Metal Blade

Basic attachment for mixing, chopping, kneading, making breadcrumbs, crushing biscuits and batters. You can also use it for blending and puréeing instead of the liquidiser, but the texture for soups is not usually as smooth. The blade is fitted onto the spindle.

Plastic Kneader Blade

For kneading and mixing. Ideal for making bread, pastry, biscuits

and cakes. The blade is fitted onto the spindle.

Grating Disc

Use for grating cheese, vegetables and fruit. The appropriate disc is fitted to the holder and then placed onto the spindle.

(A) fine grating and (C) coarse grating plus optional Parmesan grating disc. With all grating a piece of unprocessed food always remains between the holder and lid, this is normal.

Slicing Disc

For slicing vegetables and fruit. The appropriate disc is fitted to the holder and then placed onto the spindle.

2 discs - (D) fine slicing and (H) coarse slicing. The fine disc gives wafer thin slicing but the coarse disc gives food sliced to about 2-3 mm thickness.

Emulsifying disc

(Available as an additional accessory)

For whisking egg whites, meringues

(2 to 7 egg whites) and whipped cream (up to 0.5 litre). Making mayonnaise and mousses. Note: for whipping egg whites the total time taken is about

11/2 - 2 minute instead of seconds.

Balloon Whisk Attachment

For whisking egg whites, meringues

(2 to 7 egg whites) and whipped cream (up to 0.5 litre). Making mayonnaise and mousses. Note: for whipping egg whites the total time taken is about

11/2 - 2 minutes instead of seconds.

Citrus Press

Ideal for all sorts of citrus fruits including lemons, oranges and grapefruits.

Liquidiser Jug

Ideal for blending and puréeing soups and sauces, making frothy milkshakes and cocktails, pureeing soft fruits or cooked vegetables and fruit, making batters. Maximum capacity of total ingredients 1.5 litre.

Centrifugal Juice Extractor

Suitable for extracting juice from fruit and vegetables such as apples, pineapples, grapes, carrots, and celery. This accessory has its own lid and food pusher.

Mini Chopper

Chops cloves of garlic, herbs, parsley, ham, small amounts of bread or French bread for breadcrumbs, nuts (quantities up to 80g) and prepares baby food. Note: It is not able to grind coffee beans or hard spices.

Grinder

(Available as an additional accessory)

Grinds spices, pepper and dried fruits in seconds.

French Fries disc

Easily cuts thin cut ‘American style’ fries from potatoes.

INTELLIGENT CONTROLS for simple operation

To perform any of the tasks shown opposite, just press the speed symbol indicated and the speed will be set automatically. You will find that on some of the tasks the motor will gradually increase in speed during the processing (for liquidiser, whisk and metal blade). Once it has reached maximum speed the speed can then be manually adjusted if required by pressing the + or - buttons (A8).

Other tasks start on maximum speed (plastic kneader blade, grater disc) and some tasks start on minimum speed (slicer disc and citrus press). The speed can be manually adjusted at any time by pressing the + or - buttons (A8).

Usage and practical tips

You can blend up to 1 litre of soup or stewed fruit in 20 sec.

Chopping

•For better control over the chopping, use the “pulse” position (A9).

•In 15 to 30 sec., you can chop up to 600g of food:

•hard produce: cheese, dried fruits, certain vegetables (carrots, celery...).

•soft produce: certain vegetables (onions, spinach...).

•raw or cooked meat (boned with gristle removed and diced).

•raw or cooked fish...

Kneading/Mixing

•Depending on the blade used, press the “metal blade” or “plastic blade” symbol on the speed selector (A5).

•When kneading, stop the appliance as soon as the pastry/dough starts to form a ball.

You can:

•knead up to 1.2 kg of pastry/dough (biscuit, shortcrust, and bread) in approximately 60 sec.

•mix up to 1 litre of pancake, waffle batter, etc. in 1min to 11/2 min.

Cake Making

•When making cakes with “soft tub” margarine use it straight from the refrigerator. To avoid over processing the ingredients use the “pulse button” (A9) as the mixing times are very short, only about 20 seconds.

•If using butter or block margarine, it should be left at room temperature to soften and cut it into 2cm pieces. Use the “plastic kneader” setting on speed selector (A5) when mixing for up to about 40 seconds.

•Sponge type cakes are best made by the ‘all in one method’. Using the spatula, scrape down any unmixed ingredients into the centre of the bowl and process for 5 seconds.

•When adding ingredients such as dried fruit, nuts and cherries use the “pulse button” (A9) to avoid the ingredients being chopped up into small pieces.

You can:

•Mix up to 1.5 kg of light cake mixture in about 20 - 40 seconds.
