Tips for using your hand blender
• Blender attachment: Move the hand
blender gently up and down to obtain
best results.
• Only start the hand blender when the
blender shaft is placed into the mixture to
be blended.
• Cut food into small pieces to make
blending and chopping easier.
• Do not immerse the motor body in water
or other liquids.
• To incorporate air into the mixture, hold
the blade just under the surface.
• Whisk: When using the whisk, avoid
beating egg whites for too long as they
might dry out and get less stable.
• Slowly add sugar to the beaten egg
whites as soon as the peaks start to form.
• The maximum continuous operation time
for the whisk is 4 minutes.
• Vegetable masher: When using the
vegetable masher, use a low speed for
potatoes as they are starchy and must
not be overworked. Use a higher speed
for mashing vegetables such as turnips
and sweet potatoes.
• Mash the ingredients while hot.
• Mash vegetables first and add other
ingredients such as milk, butter and
seasoning afterwards.
• Chopper accessory: Do not operate the
chopper without food inside the bowl.
• Do not overfill the chopper bowl.
• Cut food into pieces of the same size to
achieve even results.
• Place the chopper bowl on a flat and
sturdy surface.
• Make sure that the blade is inserted
correctly.
• Do not place very hot foods in the bowl.
• Some spices may scratch the chopper
