Use of the PULSE (M)
The PULSE button allows for better control during short
processing.
•Press the PULSE (M) button. The warning light
between the AUTO 3 min. (L) and PULSE (M) buttons
will turn on.
• Select the desired speed. The appliance will operate
as long as the button remains pressed.
CLEANING OF THE APPLIANCE
Never immerse the motor housing in water.
• All of the remains of the ingredients must be remo-
ved with a spatula. In the models having a plastic
blender jar, use a rubber spatula so as to not scrat-
ch the surface.
• Pour lukewarm water into the blender jar, filling to
the halfway point. Operate the appliance for a few
seconds then empty the jar.
Repeat the operation if possible.
For electronic models, it is possible to clean the
appliance automatically, as described in the para-
graph “how to use the AUTO 3 min. button”.
The blender jar and all the plastic components should
not be washed in the dishwasher or in boiling water.
• Remove the blender jar, the lid, and the measuring
cup before washing them in lukewarm water and
mild detergent. The rinse and dry thoroughly.
• The glass blender jar in the model KF1400EG and
KF1600EP is made of unbreakable glass of the
highest quality to assure the maximum resistance. In
any case, it is advisable to take the necessary pre-
cautions in order to avoid violent knocks.
• Use a damp cloth or sponge to clean the motor hou-
sing and the electrical cord. Dry thoroughly with a
soft cloth.
•Wrap the cord carefully around the base of the
motor housing.
SUGGESTIONS FOR USE
1 General
• In order to get results and not risk that the ingredients
spill out of the blender jar, add the ingredients to the
jug a little at a time.
• Do not fill the jar more than _ full – the movement of
the blades will increase the volume of the ingredients
in the jug. The recipes which use large quantities of
ingredients should be processed in batches.
• Pour in the liquid ingredients before the solid ones,
as long as the recipe doesn’t say otherwise. The
liquid will facilitate the processing and will allow for
the use of lower speed. Always add a cup of water
before processing ice.
• Blend for 5 – 30 seconds and then check the consi-
stency. Continue to process the ingredients in this
way until the desired consistency is obtained. Be
sure to not process the ingredients too much; this
would cause a loss of consistency to the entire reci-
pe.
• Always use the blender with the lid well inserted.
• DO NOT remove the blender jar from the motor
housing while the appliance is in use.
• In order to avoid the possibility of injury to the user
or damage to the appliance, do not insert hands or
utensils into the jar while the appliance is operating.
It is possible to utilise a spatula while the appliance
is turned off.
2 Solid ingredients
• It is necessary to pay particular attention during the
processing of fine ingredients. In this case, it is
necessary to interrupt the processing from time to
time, take off the lid and scrape the ingredients
down off the sides of the jar and the blades. Then
reinsert the lid and continue processing. If the pro-
cessing becomes lengthy in this way, select a higher
speed.
•To add solid ingredients to the blender jar, remove
the measuring cup from the lid and add them a little
at a time through the hole in the lid. The vegetable
and cheese ingredients must always be cut into
cubes before being added to the jar.
3 Hot preparations
It is always necessary to remove the measuring cup
from the lid before beginning the preparation of hot
recipes.
• Slowly add the hot ingredients, maximum 2 cups at
a time, through the hole in the lid.
