Using the appliance

Blender

◗ The blender is intended for:

- Blending fluids, e.g. dairy products, sauces, fruit juices, soups, mixed drinks, shakes.

- Mixing soft ingredients, e.g. pancake batter or mayonnaise.

- Pureeing cooked ingredients, e.g. for making baby food.

1 Put the rubber sealing ring around the edge of the knife unit.

2 Attach the knife unit to the blender jar by turning it in the

direction of the arrow.

3 Mount the jar unit onto the motor unit. Fix it by turning it in

the direction of the arrow.

Be careful not to exert too much pressure on the handle of the jar.

4 Put the ingredients in the jar.

Never fill the jar with ingredients that have a temperature of over 80cC.

5 Press the lid into place.

6 Place the stopper into the opening in the lid and turn it until it

is firmly fixed.

To avoid spillage, always insert the stopper into the lid before you start processing.

◗ The speed settings allow you to adjust the speed of the appliance

to obtain optimal results. See the table for the recommended speed settings.

ENGLISH8

Page 9

7 Put the mains plug in the wall socket.

8 Select the desired speed setting and the appliance will switch on.

If you are not sure which speed to select, you can always use the highest speed (speed 2).

◗ To let the appliance run for only a few seconds at a time, set the

switch to position M (Momentum) and release it straight away. Repeat this as often as necessary.

9 To switch the appliance off, switch to position 0.

Never switch the appliance on and off by turning the jar.

For recipes see further on in this booklet.

Tips

To avoid spillage, never fill the jar above the maximum level indication (1,5 litres), particularly not when you are blending hot liquids.

◗ Liquid ingredients (e.g. oil) can be poured into the blender jar

while the appliance is running through the opening in the stopper.

◗ While the motor is running, ingredients can be added into the

blender through the opening in the lid.

Do not run the blender for more than 3 minutes at a time. If you have not finished blending after 3 minutes, switch the appliance off for one minute before you continue blending.

◗ Dry ingredients must not be processed for more than 1 minute. ◗ Pre-cut solid ingredients into smaller pieces before putting them

into the blender. Do not feed a large quantity at once into the blender jar. Feed a series of small amounts.

◗ If you are not satisfied with the result at blending solid materials,

switch the blender off and let it run briefly a number of times by means of the M position. Or stir the ingredients with a spatula (not while the blender is running), or reduce the contents of the jar and process smaller amounts.

◗ To grind ice cubes, drop them into the rotating knives through the

opening in the lid.

◗ To make tomato juice, cut the tomatoes in four and drop the

pieces onto the rotating knives through the opening in the lid.

Tips

Particularly when you are processing large quantities, we advise you not to put all the ingredients in the filter at the same time.
