Start-up
The immersion blender (5) can be used to blend soft fruit and cooked vegetab-
les, or to prepare baby food or purees. Large items should be roughly chopped
beforehand.
Please clean all parts as described in the ‘cleaning and care’ section before
allowing them to come into contact with foodstuffs.
Prepare the desired foodstuff and place in a receptacle which is sufficiently large,
tall and stable, such as the container (7) provided. Use the anti-slip base to ensure
a secure standing position.
Note:
When chopping carrots or similar foodstuff only fill in container maximum
600 ml.
Caution!
The container (7) provided is not heat resistant. The maximum tempe-
rature it can withstand is 80°C. Allow boiled foodstuffs to cool somewhat before
beginning.
Do not use the container (7) for storing food.
Make sure that the appliance is disconnected from the power supply.
Attach the blender (5) stem at the bottom of the drive unit coupling and press
together with the drive unit until you hear an audible click from the blender (5)
meaning that it is locked in place. There should not be any gap between the dri-
ver unit and the blender (5). The blender (5) must be held firmly in the appliance
and should not wobble or fall out.
If necessary, turn the shaft of the purée rod (5) when pressing on the drive unit.
The purée rod (5) must audibly click onto the drive unit and lock.
Choose the desired speed setting using the rotary swivel (1) on the top of the
appliance.
Hold the blender (5) in the foodstuff.
Caution
: spattering is likely when using the appliance. To avoid any spattering,
the lower end with the blender (5) blades should always be entirely covered.
For liquid foodstuffs, the appliance should always be held at a slight angle for
improved blending.
If using hot foodstuffs, be careful not to hold the appliance in the steam to avoid
any condensation forming on the drive unit.
If necessary, protect the drive unit and your hands from hot steam with a small,
clean kitchen towel. Wipe any condensation off the housing immediately.
Now connect the mains plug to the socket.
Hold the appliance firmly in one hand and press the on switch (2) . The motor
will begin to operate.
As soon as your foodstuff has reached the desired consistency, and after a maxi-
mum of one minute, release the on switch (2) .
Alternatively you can also press the turbo button (3)
, which will increase
the speed of the appliance.
Wait until the motor and the gadgets have come to a stop, then remove the
blender (5) from the appliance.
Always remove the mains plug from the socket before placing the appliance on a
suitable surface.
