knob to pulse position a few times.
- Cut meat or other solid ingredients into smaller pieces before you put
them in the blender jar.
- Do not process a large quantity of solid ingredients at the same time.
To get good results, we advise you to process these ingredients in a
series of small batches.
- To make tomato sauce, cut the tomatoes in four and drop the pieces
through the opening in the lid onto the rotating blades.
Measuring cup
You can use the measuring cup to measure ingredients. You can also push a
hole in it for slowly adding oil when you prepare mayonnaise.
Note: When you have pushed a hole in the measuring cup, it can no longer be
used as a measuring cup.
When you prepare mayonnaise:
- Let the blender operate at a low speed.
- Add the oil very slowly to obtain the right consistency.

Centre in your country.
Question
Answer
Can I clean all re-
movable parts in the
dishwasher?
Yes, except the motor unit. Only clean the motor
unit with a moist cloth.
Can I pour boiling
hot liquids into the
blender jar?
No, let hot liquids cool down to 80°C to prevent
damage to the jar.
Why does the mo-
tor produce an
unpleasant smell
during processing?
It is common for a new appliance to give off an
unpleasant smell or emit some smoke the first few
times it is used. This phenomenon stops after you
have used the appliance a few times. If the appli-
ance has been switched on too long, it may also
give off an unpleasant smell or emit some smoke.
In this case, set the control knob to 0 and let the
appliance cool down for 60 minutes.
The appliance
stopped operating
because the blade
unit is blocked. What
should I do?
Set the control knob to 0 and use a spatula to
dislodge the ingredients that block the blade unit.
We also advise you to process a smaller quantity.
