Choosing the appropriate speed:
a) we recommend a high speed for preparing purees, soups, pastes and
mayonnaise.
b) we recommend a low speed for preparing lighter mixtures, such as mousses,
milkshakes and sauces.
c) we recommend using the pulse option if you need a short burst of power for
mixing.
5. It's advisable to keep one hand on the feed opening cap when mixing (except when adding
extra ingredients). This will prevent any liquid from forcing itself out through the opening
in the centre of the lid. Resting a hand on the lid also reduces vibration and noise when
blending.
6. When you want to stop using the blender, turn the speed control switch to '0' and unplug
the appliance
from the mains socket. Detach and remove the mixing jug from the base unit, then remove
the lid and pour out the contents.
Very important!
• Do not use the blender continuously for more than one minute. Allow the appliance to rest
for 10 minutes after a minute of use. Exceeding the maximum operating time or failing to
allow enough resting time can cause the motor to become overloaded and damaged.
• The mixing jug must not be used for storing food. Ingredients should not be kept in the jug
and any processed food must be emptied from it as soon as mixing is complete.
• Never operate the blender when it is empty
Making the most of your blender
1. The markings on the side of the mixing jug are designed to provide approximate guidance
for measuring ingredients. You should use a calibrated mixing bowl if you require precise
measurements.
2. For your own safety, do not blend solid food or ice cubes on their own. When chopping ice,
add a quarter of a cup of water to the jug and only blend one or two small ice cubes at a
