Removing the mixer
When the processing of the foodstuffs is complete:
➩
Always first place the switch
t
into the OFF
position ("0") and remove the power plug.
➩
Wait until the motor has come to a complete
standstill before lifting the mixer jug
e
straight
up. It does not need to be turned.
Useful tips
– The best results when blending firm ingredients
are achieved by placing small portions one after
the other into the mixer jug
e
instead of inser-
ting a single large portion.
– When processing firm ingredients, cut them into
small pieces (2-3 cm).
– When mixing liquid ingredients begin first of all
with a small measure of fluids. Gradually add
more fluids to the mixture through the filling cap.
– The appliance can be stabilised by placing your
hand on top of the closed liquidiser during opera-
tion.
– For the stirring of firm or very viscous foodstuffs
it can be beneficial to use the impulse-operation,
which helps avoid a blocking of the cutters
r
.
Notice
Do not use the appliance to crush grains of cooking
salt, refined sugar or white sugar. For example, to
make powdered sugar.
Cleaning
Caution!
Before starting to clean the liquidiser and its
components:
• Ensure that the motor is switched off and the
power plug removed from the socket.
Under no circumstance may the motor block
u
be submersed in water or other fluids.This
could result in you receiving a fatal electric
shock and the appliance could be damaged.
• Never open the housing of the appliance. This
brings with it the risk of receiving a fatal electric
shock.
• Never disassemble the cutters
r
and never re-
ach into the mixer jug
e
. The cutters
r
are ex-
tremely sharp!
• Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners on the
plastic surfaces, they could be damaged by them.
Cleaning the mixer
➩
So that you do not injure yourself on the cutters
r
, clean the mixer jug
e
only with a long
handled dishwasher brush.
➩
In a case of stubborn soiling, the mixer jug
e
can also be cleaned in a dishwasher. For this,
always take the mixing jug
e
apart, as
described later.
➩
Clean the lid
w
and the filling cap
q
in a dish-
washer or with the normal washing up.
If you clean the liquidiser directly after use, you can
often achieve a satisfactory and hygienic level of
cleaning with the following alternative:
➩
Fill the mixer jug
e
with water, close the lid
w
and place the mixer jug
e
on the motor block
u
.
Insert the power plug into the wall socket and
activate the Ice Crush/Clean switch, causing the
cutters
r
to rotate in the water with maximum
revolutions.
