LOOSING BLOCKED FOOD – REVERSE OPERATION
CAUTION:
Do not operate the motor in reverse direction for more than a few
seconds. Reverse operation moves the foods to the motor housing. Thus, foods and juices
could run into the gear hole of the motor housing.
If the blockage of the worm shaft is not cleared away after a short moment of reverse
operation, switch OFF the appliance via the ON/OFF button and power switch, then
unplug and clean the appliance according to the instructions in chapter Care and Clea-
ning.
Reverse operation is only intended for loosening blocked foods in the worm shaft by
moving the worm shaft in opposite direction for a short moment.
To activate reverse operation:
1. First switch OFF the motor via the ON/OFF button.
Reverse operation is only available with the motor switched OFF and the power
switch ON (both indicators illuminated white).
2. Press the REVERSE button.
To avoid problems derived from pressing the wrong button during operation, after
pressing the REVERSE button, this button flashes in blue, and the reverse operation
starts with a time delay of 4 seconds.
Additionally, reverse operation is switched OFF automatically after 5 seconds of
operation. However, to release stuck food in the cutter housing, it is sufficient in
general, to operate the motor in reverse direction for just a moment.
3. You can switch OFF the reverse operation of the motor any time. Press the ON/OFF
button to switch OFF reverse operation. Thereafter, the indicators are illuminated in
white again.
If the motor gets stuck again or reverse operation does not work, switch OFF the appli-
ance completely (ON/OFF button and power switch), unplug and clean the appliance
according to the instructions in chapter Care and Cleaning. However, if the problem
persists, slow down working and cut your foods to smaller pieces, before processing in
the mincer (See: Properties of Your »Design Mincer Pro M«).
