IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Follow basic safety precautions, including:

This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been supervised/instructed and understand the hazards involved. Children must not use or play with the appliance. Keep the appliance and cable out of reach of children.

⚠️ To avoid injury, take care handling the blades, emptying the bowl, and cleaning.
Don't add hot liquid (over 40^ ) to the bowl, as it may be ejected due to sudden steaming.

Misuse of the appliance may cause injury.

Unplug the appliance before assembly, disassembly, or cleaning.

Don't leave the appliance unattended while plugged in.

If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or someone similarly qualified, to avoid hazard.

Do not use this appliance near bathtubs, showers, basins or other vessels containing water.

• Don't use the wand in hot oil – even moderately hot oil can cause a nasty burn.
• Don't try to chip ice, don't try to chop raw meat, and take great care with the blades.
• Don't fit an attachment or accessory other than those we supply.
• Don't use the appliance for any purpose other than those described in these instructions.
• Don't operate the appliance if it's damaged or malfunctions.
• If blending hot liquids in a pan, always remove the pan from the heat and allow it to cool down a little before blending.

- Never leave the blender resting in the pan because the bottom of the pan could still be very hot and damage the blender.

- Don't use the wand for more than 30 seconds, the whisk for more than 5 minutes or the chopper for more than 30 seconds. Allow the motor to cool for 2 minutes before using it again.

FITTING/REMOVING ATTACHMENTS

1. Unplug the appliance before fitting or removing attachments.
2. To fit an attachment, push it on to the end of the motor unit, and turn it clockwise.
3. To remove the attachment, turn it anti-clockwise, then pull the attachment off the motor unit.

USING

1. Put the plug into the power socket.
2. Press the low speed button for low speed, release it to switch off.
3. Press the high speed button for high speed, release it to switch off.
4. Large quantities, thick mixes, and a high ratio of solids to liquids require longer timings and slower speeds.
5. Smaller quantities, thinner mixes, and more liquids than solids require shorter timings and higher speeds.

WAND ATTACHMENT

Use the wand attachment to blend, pulp or purée ingredients in the pan or bowl you're going to cook them in.

Whatever container you use, make sure it's on a stable, flat surface, and support it with your free hand to prevent it wandering over the work surface.

• Don't immerse the wand past the top of the parallel-sided tube.
• When using it in hot liquids, don't let the blade break the surface at an angle, as you might spray liquid outside the bowl/pan/container.
• Don't switch on till the blade is inside the food container.
• Switch off before lifting the blade from the food container.

WHISK ATTACHMENT

Use the whisk where you would have normally used a hand whisk.

• Push the whisk into the bottom of the whisk holder.
  • To remove the whisk, simply pull it out of the bottom of the whisk holder,
• Don't immerse the whisk past the bottom of the whisk holder.

CHOPPING ATTACHMENT

You can use the chopper as a mini food processor.

1. Unplug the motor unit.
2. Handle the chopping blade only by the plastic part. Lower it into the bowl over the spindle in the bottom of the bowl.
3. Add the ingredients – don't fill the bowl above the 700ml mark.
4. Fit the bowl lid – the top of the chopper fits into the drive in the underside of the lid.
5. Fit the motor unit to the top of the bowl lid.
6. Use the chopper in bursts of a few seconds, otherwise you risk overdoing it.
7. When finished, unplug the motor unit then remove it from the lid.
8. Lift the lid gently from the bowl – take care that any drips fall into the bowl. Lift out the chopping blade.
9. For storage, you may use the non-slip base as a lid.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. Unplug the appliance.
2. Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth.
3. For best results, wash the wand immediately after use. Clean the blade end of the wand in hot soapy water with a nylon brush. Do not wash the wand in a dishwasher. Always ensure that the wand is dried thoroughly before storing. If water enters the wand, stand it up inverted until all of the water has drained away.
4. Keep the whisk holder and bowl lid dry, as they contain the gearboxes for the whisk and bowl.
5. Wash the whisk, beaker, bowl, and non-slip base in warm soapy water.

You may wash these parts in a dishwasher.

If you use a dishwasher, the harsh environment inside the dishwasher will affect the surface finishes. The damage should be cosmetic only, and should not affect the operation of the appliance.
