hot liquids
23 At higher temperatures, the lid may soften enough to lose its seal, allowing the
contents of the bowl to escape, so, when using hot liquids:
a) before pouring into the bowl, let the liquid cool down to the sort of temperature
you can handle comfortably (i.e. liquid temperature below 40°C)
b) put a hand on the lid, to hold it in place while processing
c) if the lid is too hot for comfort, remove it and let the liquid cool down further
ice blade unit
(serrated blades)
24 The blades on the ice blade unit have serrated edges to cope with the increased
load when chopping/crushing ice.
25 Fit the ice blade unit in exactly the same way as the processing blade unit.
26 Before using the processor to crush ice, make sure it’s clean, and rinse the bowl out
thoroughly. The slightest trace of detergent may affect the taste of the crushed ice,
and will flatten any drink to which it is added.
27 Ice “cubes” come in many shapes and sizes. You’ll have to experiment with the ice
from your ice cube tray.
28 Start with half to threequarters of a cup of ice, or 4 to 6 cubes, and add 15ml (1
tablespoon) of fresh cold water.
29 Assemble the processor, then press the switch
4
3 or 4 times, with short pauses
between.
30 Check the results, and adjust. Too much processing will reduce the ice to liquid, too
little will merely chip the edges/corners off the ice.
31 Don’t try to crush ice without adding water to the bowl.
32 Don’t be tempted simply to increase the amount of ice and blend for longer. This
won’t work. Too much ice will never give you satisfactory results.
the creamer
33 Although this isn’t a blade, it can be fitted in exactly the same way as the blade units.
34 Use it to whip cream – use it in bursts, and keep an eye on the results.
35 Take care not to overdo it – 5 to 10 seconds in total should be sufficient
36 You’ll probably have to remove the lid to check progress – lift it at an angle, so any
cream on the lid drips back into the bowl and not on the work surface.
care and maintenance
1 Unplug the processor before dismantling or cleaning.
2 Lift the motor unit off the bowl.
3 Lift the processing lid off the bowl – hold it at an angle, to let anything on it drip
back into the bowl.
4 Hold the plastic part of the blade unit, turn it to free it from the spindle
flanges, and lift it straight up and out of the bowl. Take care – the blades
are very sharp
5 Take care when you’re handling and cleaning the blade unit – if you can’t see what
you’re doing, don’t do it.
6 Wipe the outer surfaces of the motor unit with a damp cloth. If necessary, use a little
washing-up liquid.
7 Wash the bowl, lids, blade units and creamer in warm soapy water.
