twice during blending. Do not use metal utensils as they may damage the blades or
blender jug.
WARNING:
If the blender jug is positioned on the motorblock, and the plug is con-
nected to the power outlet, do not insert your fingers, a wooden or plastic spoon or
similar cooking utensils or foreign substances in the blender jug. Always take the blender
jug off the motorblock before pushing the food down with a spoon.
• Process ingredients a few seconds only. Permanently check on the consistency of the
food in between the operation to avoid getting food which is too fine and slushy.
Pick the speed for your needs: mixing (MIX 1 - 5) for permanent operation, ICE-CRUSH
button, PULSE button (for interval operation) or the SMOOTHIE button.
• Do not operate a heavy mixture for more than 30 seconds.
• For normal blending tasks, for example, mayonnaise, dressings etc., do not operate
for longer than 1 minute at one time without turning off the blender and stirring the
ingredients, and then continue blending.
• Do not operate the blender without having the blender lid in position. To add addi-
tional ingredients whilst blending, remove the refill lid and place ingredients through
the opening in the lid.
• Do not fill the blender jug above the MAX line. When the blender jug is filled at or
near the MAX line, place one hand on the blender lid to avoid displacement of the
lid during operation.
• Do not place any objects, other than food or liquid, into the blender whilst the motor
is running.
• Do not use the blender jug to store food.
• The blender will not knead dough or mash potatoes.
• Do not remove the blender jug while the blender is operating. Always make sure
the blender is off by pressing the Power button and unplug the power cord from the
power outlet.
• Do not overload the blender with more than the specified quantity of ingredients as
doing so could cause the motor to stall. Turn the blender is off by pressing the Power
button on the control panel and unplug the cord. Remove a portion of the mixture from
the blender jug before continuing.
• Do not place hot or boiling ingredients into the blender; allow to cool before placing
into the blender jug.
