Important:
Do not overload the motor with food that is oversized or too hard. Turn
the appliance off as soon as the motor stalls or stucks to avoid overheating of the
motor (see ›Trouble shooting‹). Fill liquid ingredients into the blender jug before
solid ingredients, unless it is described different in the recipe. Prepare your food
before you fill it into the blender jug. Do not overfill the blender jug.
Do not put more than 2 cups of warm ingredients into the blender before blending
commences. After the blending process has begun and the blades are turning you
may slowly add another 1½ cups of ingredients through the opening in the lid if
desired.
Thick mixtures puree more efficiently if the blender is ¼ to ½ full.
When blending thick or dry mixtures it may be necessary to stop the blender and
scrape down the sides of the blender jug with a plastic or rubber spatula, once or
twice during blending.
Do not use metal utensils as they may damage the blades or blender jug.
WARNING:
If the blender jug is positioned on the motorblock, and the plug
is connected to the power outlet, do not insert your fingers, a wooden or plastic
spoon or similar cooking utensils or foreign substances in the blender jug. Always
take the blender jug off the motorblock before pushing the food down with a
spoon. Do not use any force while pushing the food down. Use only wooden or
plastic utensils. Metal utensils could damage the knifes or the jug.
Do not operate a heavy mixture for more than 10 seconds. For normal blending
tasks, for example, mayonnaise, dressings etc., do not operate for longer than 2
minutes at one time without turning off the appliance and stirring the ingredients, and
then continue blending.
Do not operate the blender without having the blender lid in position. To add additi-
onal ingredients whilst blending, remove the inner lid and place ingredients through
the opening in the lid.
Do not fill the blender jug above the ›MAX‹ line (1,75 litre). Overloading the blen-
der jug could cause the motor to stall. Turn the blender off, pull the plug out of the
poweroutlet and remove a portion of the mixture from the blender jug before conti-
nuing.
Do not place any objects, other than food or liquid, into the blender whilst the motor
is running.
Do not use the blender jug to store food.
The blender will not knead dough or mash potatoes.
