| OPERATING YOUR HAND BLENDER
OPERATING TIPS
• Cut solid foods into small pieces for
easier blending.
• The Hand Blender is equipped with
thermal protection from high operating
temperatures. Should the Hand Blender
suddenly stop during use, unplug it and
allow 10 minutes to automatically reset.
• To avoid splashing, insert the Hand
Blender into the mixture before pressing
the Power button, and release the
Power button before pulling the Hand
Blender out of the mixture.
• When blending in a saucepan on a
cooktop, remove the pan from the
heating element to protect the Hand
Blender from overheating.
• For best blending, hold the Hand
Blender at an angle and gently move up
and down within the container. Do not
pound down on the mixture with the
Hand Blender.
• To prevent overflow, allow room in the
container for the mixture to rise when
using the Hand Blender.
• Be sure the extra long cord of the Hand
Blender is not extending over a hot
heating element.
• Do not let the Hand Blender sit in a hot
pan on the cooktop while not in use.
• Remove hard items, such as fruit pits
or bones, from the mixture before
blending to help prevent damage to the
blades.
• Do not use your Hand Blender to
process coffee beans or hard spices such
as nutmegs. Processing these foods
could damage the blades of the Hand
Blender.
• Do not use the jar or the chopper bowl
in the microwave oven.
• The stainless steel whisk may scratch or
mar non-stick coatings; avoid using the
whisk in non-stick cookware.
• To prevent splattering, use the whisk
attachment in deep containers or pans.
