PRODUCT OVERVIEW
FIRST TIME USE
• Before using your blender for the first time, wash the jug, blade assembly, lid
and
stopper. Rinse throughly and dry.
•
Place the base unit on a stable surface, free from heat and moisture and within easy
reach of a mains socket. The mains cable should not be taut.
PREPARING AND FILLING THE INGREDIENTS
• Cut the ingredients into 25mm (1”) cubes before placing them into the blender jug.
If the food is very solid or dry, cut the pieces into smaller cubes.
•
Fill the blender jug with the ingredients.
•
Do not overfill the jug. The maximum capacity is 1500 ml, but we suggest you do
not exceed 1250 ml. If you are preparing a large quantity use several smaller
batches.
•
If the ingredients are very dry, put some liquid into the jug. You should never try to
reduce dry ingredients in the blender.
FITTING THE STOPPER
The stopper has an integral measuring cup useful for measuring small amounts of
ingredients.
• Place the stopper in the slots in the lid and turn clockwise to lock. If the stopper is
properly secured, you will hear a “click” sound.
To avoid splashing, always operate the blender with the stopper firmly in place.

Blender's Operation Modes

Select the desired operating speed. There are 5
speeds. Move the Speed Selector progressively to
the right to increase the speed. When you start
blending use a low speed to begin with and
gradually increase the speed if necessary.
•
To stop the operation, turn the Speed Selector
back to ‘0’.
Use this mode when ingredients need to be
blended in small repeated bursts.
•
Turn the Speed Selector to ‘P’ and hold it there for
a short period of time.
•
To stop the operation, release the Speed Selector
which will then automatically return to ‘0’.
