Tips
◗ To prevent spillage, do not put more than 1.5 litres of liquid in the blender jar, especially
when you are processing at a high speed. Do not put more than 1 litre in the blender jar
when you are processing hot liquids or ingredients that tend to foam.
◗ You can use the opening in the lid to add ingredients while the motor is running (fig. 7).
◗ Do not process dry ingredients for more than 1 minute.
◗ Cut solid ingredients into smaller pieces before putting them in the blender jar. Do not
process a large quantity of solid ingredients at the same time. Process these ingredients in a
series of small batches instead.
◗ If you are not satisfied with the result when blending solid ingredients, switch the blender off
and use the pulse setting a few times to let the blender run briefly.You can also stir the
ingredients with a spatula (not while the blender is running!) or remove some of the
contents of the jar and process smaller amounts.
◗ To crush ice cubes put max. 5 cubes at a time in the jar and press the ice button a few times.
HR2074 only:The jar is made of glass and therefore breakable. Do not drop the jar on a hard
floor.Also avoid extreme thermal shocks. If the jar is very cold, rinse it well with lukewarm water
before pouring hot liquid into it. If the glass jar cracks, stop using it.
