SELECTING THE SPEED LEVELS
Turn the ON/OFF-switch easily to the desired speed level. The appropriate speed
level is determined by the textures of the ingredients. To use the pulse function (ON/
OFF-switch position ›P‹) press and hold the switch in position until the ingredients have
reached the desired consistency.
WORKING WITH THE VITAL MIXER BASIC
WARNING:
Always remove the glass jug from the motor base before opening
the lid or checking the contents.
1. Place the ingredients in the glass jug.
Important:
Pre-cooked ingredients should cool down before processing. If possible
fill in the liquid ingredients first. Cut solid ingredients before placing into the glass jug
into 2 cm pieces. Do not fill the glass jar too full. Otherwise, the content may over-
flow or spray out and the engine could get stuck.
2. Place the lid on the glass jar and press down firmly. Close the central opening
of the lid with the transparent beaker. The beaker has two small guide pins that
fit into the slots on the cover on both sides. Slide the beaker into the lid all the
way down and turn it clockwise to lock.
WARNING:
While the appliance is operating never remove the glass jug, remo-
ve the lid or insert wooden spoon or other foreign objects into the glass jug. Be sure
to turn ON/OFF-switch to position ›0‹ to turn off the appliance and wait until the
motor has come to a complete stop. Then take down the glass jug from the motor
base, before reaching into the glass jug or work with cooking utensils and similar
objects in the glass jug.
WARNING:
If you process hot ingredients, please make sure not to burn yourself
on the glass jar or lid, or scald on steam or spraying liquids. Place perhaps a kitchen
towel over the lid to protect from splashes and steam.
3. Keep one hand on the lid and turn the appliance on using the ON/OFF-switch.
Be sure to select the desired speed level. The motor starts to work.
ATTENTION:
If the motor ceases to operate unintentionally or is unusually slow,
immediately turn the ON/OFF-switch to position ›0‹. Otherwise, the motor may over-
heat. Pay attention to the section ›Trouble Shooting‹.
Note:
If you have pressed the pulse button or the ice-crushing button, the motor runs as
long as you hold the switch.
