The standard processing time for all chopping is 30-60 seconds. To chop onions, use the PULSE button to
control the size of the pieces and prevent the onions from being chopped too finely.
If food sticks to the blade unit or to the inside of the Soup Maker bowl:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove the lid from the Soup Maker bowl.
3. Remove the ingredients from the blade unit or from the wall of the bowl with a spatula.
Discs - Use and Precautions
Only use the Pusher when feeding ingredients down the feeding tube.
Do not use your fingers or any other utensil. Do not run the appliance for
too long when shredding hard cheese. Otherwise the cheese will become
hot, start melting and turn lumpy. Do not use the Shredding Disc to shred
chocolate. Only use the Soup Maker blade unit for this purpose. Do not
fill the bowl beyond the MAX indication.
Preparing the Ingredients
• Pre-cut large ingredients to make them fit into the feeding tube.
• Fill the feeding tube evenly for the best results.
• When you shred or granulate soft ingredients, use a low speed to pre-
vent the ingredients from turning into a puree.
• If the ingredients you are going to shred or slice have a small diameter,
put the Outer Pusher in the feeding tube to make the feeding tube
smaller. Then use the Inner Pusher to push the ingredients down the
feeding tube.
• When processing large amounts of ingredients, process small batches
and empty the bowl between batches.
Egg Beaters - Use and Precautions
You can use the Ballon Beaters to whip cream, to whisk eggs and egg whites and to make
instant pudding, mayonnaise and sponge cake mixture.
Do not use the Ballon Beaters to prepare cake mixtures with butter or margarine or to
knead dough. Use the kneading accessory for these jobs. Do not fill the bowl beyond the
MAX indication.
• Make sure the bowl and the Ballon Beaters are dry and free from grease when you
whisk egg whites.
• Always clean the Ballon Beaters after use.
