BEFORE USE
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash
all accessories thoroughly. Take care when handling
the blades as they are sharp. Wipe the motor base
with a damp cloth.
Never immerse the motor base in water!
Check that the mains supply voltage corresponds to
the voltage indicated on the rating plate.
HOW TO USE THE BLENDER
• PLACE THE APPLIANCE ON A DRY FLAT SUR-
FACE. DO NOT PLUG THE APPLIANCE INTO
THE MAINS UNTIL ALL ACCESSORIES HAVE
BEEN CORRECTLY FITTED.
• Place the blender jar on the motor base.
• Pour the ingredients into the jar.
This may be done by:
1. Removing the entire lid (A+B) by rotating
anticlockwise;
2. Using the lid (B) (fig. 2);
• The appliance is supplied with a handy measu-
re (A) with a hole for adding, for example,
drops of flavouring or essence without opening
the lid. If you turn the measure (A) upside down
and close the hole, it can also be used as a
measure for oil or similar.
Important:
Never use the appliance for more than 1 minute
consecutively. Pause for 4 minutes between one
cycle and the next and use for a maximum of five
cycles. The appliance must then be left to cool
down.
• Cut solid food into cubes and add water.
• Place the lid (B) on the jar.
• Plug into the mains.
• To start processing the ingredients, just move
the slide (E) to select the desired speed.
When the ingredients have reached the requi-
red consistency, move the slide back to the (0)
position.
• Before cleaning, always unplug from the
mains.
USING THE "P" FUNCTION
The "P" (pulse) function improves control for short
periods of processing.
Position the slide (E) in the "P" position and press
the button (F) intermittently until you have completed
processing.
The appliance functions while the (F) button is pres-
sed.
CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
NEVER IMMERSE the motor base in water!
Make sure the appliance is unplugged from the
mains socket.
• Remains of the ingredients being processed
must be removed with a spatula.
• Half fill the blender jar with lukewarm water.
Operate the appliance for a few seconds then
empty the jar.
Repeat the operation if possible.
The blender jar and all plastic components
must not be washed in the dishwasher or in
boiling water.
• Take care when handling the glass jar to avoid
violent impact.
For more thorough cleaning, the base of the jar
can be removed by turning the ring on the bot-
tom. After cleaning, replace the base and screw
on.
• Clean the motor base and power cable with a
damp cloth or sponge.
Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
• Wrap the power cable carefully around the bot-
tom of the motor base.
TIPS
1. General
• Add the ingredients to the jar a little at a time
for best results and to avoid them overflowing.
• Do not fill the jar more than two thirds full. The
movement of the blades will increase the volume
of the ingredients. Recipes using large quantities
of ingredients should be processed in batches.
• Unless the recipe specifies otherwise, add liquid
ingredients before solid ingredients. The liquid
will facilitate processing and allow you to use a
slower speed. Always add a cup of water befo-
re processing ice.
• Blend for 5 – 30 seconds then check the consi-
stency.
Continue this procedure until the desired consi-
stency is obtained.
Do not over process the ingredients as this
would change the consistency of the recipe.
• Always use the blender with the lid firmly on.
• NEVER remove the jar from the motor base
while the appliance is in operation.
• To avoid the risk of injury or damage to the
appliance, never place hands or implements in
the jar while the appliance is in operation.
A spatula can be used when the appliance is
off.
