OPERATION
First use
Before using your blender for the first time you should ensure
that the components are thoroughly cleaned.
Follow the instructions in the Care and Cleaning section to
•
clean all components thoroughly before first use.
Which types of food are suitable for blending?
Your blender is suitable for blending most types of food to a liquid
including fruits, vegetables, home-made soups (hot or cold) and
drinks.
Bananas, berries, mango, peaches, plums, nectarines, apple,
pear and melon all make delicious blended drinks when blended
with a little liquid. Experiment with the addition of a little milk, or
dairy-free alternative, yogurt, rice milk or coconut milk.
Carrots, tomatoes, leafy vegetables, avocado, cucumber can all
be blended with the addition of a little water or stock.
Some great blender recipe books are available for drinks and
soups or try searching on-line for different ideas.
Preparing fruit or vegetables for blending
Wash the ingredients.
If preferred, peel fruit and vegetables before preparation.
Remove any core or pips.
Soft fruit and vegetables can now be chopped roughly. Hard fruit
and vegetables should be chopped finely or grated.
Blending soup
If you are making soup, cook the soup ingredients gently to
soften up and form a soup base, then use the blender to liquidise
the soup.
Cautions in use
Never operate the blender without the lid or cap.
•
Never fill the blender above the maximum 1500ml/48oz marks
•
on the jug. If you have more ingredients than this to blend,
split them into batches to blend separately.
Place one hand on top of the blender during operation to
•
stabilise it.
