Start-up
▪ Clean the glass jug (3), lid (2) and closing cap (1) before starting up the appli-
ance for the first time. Ensure that you do not injure yourself on the sharp
blade.
▪ Place the appliance on an even surface and position the glass jug (3) on the
drive unit (8).
▪ Add the ingredients to the jug (3) and close it with the lid (2) and the closing
cap (1).
Additional ingredients may be added by removing the closing cap (1), even
while the motor is running.
Note: Ensure that you do not exceed the maximum filling quantity of 0.8 l. If
you are using hot, very liquid or slightly foaming food (e.g. milk), we advise
using 0.5 l as the maximum filling quantity.
Note:
Never operate the appliance empty.
▪ Start the appliance by turning the selector switch (8) to the right. Start at a
low speed and increase it if necessary.
To use the
Pulse
function, hold the selector switch (8) to the left on the
Pulse
level. The motor will operate at maximum speed for as long as you keep the
selector switch (8) on the
Pulse
level.
▪ As soon as the desired result has been achieved, switch the selector switch (8)
to the Off position . Only then should you remove the jug (3).
Attention! Risk of injury! Always wait for the blade (2) to come to a
standstill before removing the lid. Do not reach into the appliance before
the mains plug has been unplugged.
Completely empty the glass jug (3)
following use. Do not leave any liquid in the jug (3).

Crushing ice cubes
Add a maximum of 6 ice cubes and close the glass jug (3) with the lid (2) and
closing cap (1). Move the selector switch (8) to the
Pulse
level for a few seconds
and then back to the Off position . As soon as the ice cubes have fallen back to
the bottom of the glass jug (8), you can switch to the
Pulse
level again for a few
seconds. Repeat the process until the crushed ice has the desired consistency.
Note: For a more homogeneous result, add some water to the ice cubes.
Glass jug
Lid with closing cap
The closing cap (1) in the lid (2) can be removed and used as a measure (10 / 20 /
30 ml) by turning it anti-clockwise.
The lid (2) reliably and tightly seals the glass jug. The lid (2) has a tab which you
can use to make it easier to remove the lid.
You can add more ingredients through the opening, even during operation.
Disassembling the glass jug
The glass jug (3) can be disassembled, especially for cleaning.
Remove the lid (2) and the closing cap (1). Place the glass jug (3) on the table
with the opening face-down and turn the locking screw (6) on the blade unit (5)
clockwise (see the figure). You can now remove the blade unit (5) and the sealing
ring (4).
To assemble the glass jug, the sealing ring (4) is first of all attached to the blade
unit (5). When doing so, ensure that the sealing ring (4) is correctly positioned on
the blade unit (5). Then insert the blade unit (5) into the glass jug. (3) and firmly
turn the locking screw (6) anti-clockwise.
Note: To ensure the tightness of the glass jug (3), the blade unit (5) must be
screwed on tightly. The blade unit (5) is easier to tighten if you apply a few drops
of cooking oil on the sealing side of the glass jug (see the figure).
Cleaning and maintenance
Remove the mains plug after use. Under no circumstances should you immerse
the drive unit (8) in water. Simply wipe the outside with a damp cloth. Do not
use any abrasive cleaning agents. Ensure that you do not injure yourself on the
sharp blade when cleaning the glass jug (3). Immediately after blending, fill
the jug with warm rinsing water and allow the motor to run for a few seconds.
Then remove the glass jug (3) and clean with a washing-up brush. For thorough
cleaning, you can disassemble the glass jug as described in the section entitled
“Disassembling the glass jug”.
For quick and easy cleaning, you can place all loose parts in the dishwasher.
