Possible applications

The blender can be used for mixing a wide variety of drinks, crushing ice, reducing fruit and vegetables, whipping cream, etc.

Cord storage drawer (Figure 2)

The appliance is fitted with a storage drawer at the bottom. If the connection cord to the power outlet is too long, it can be fed back into the drawer until it is the required length.

Disassembling the Apliance

Take the plug out of the socket.
Turn the tank clockwise and remove (Figure 3).
Turn the blade assembly counterclockwise using the filler cup (Figure1/C) as tool and remove (Figure 4). The grooves of the filler cup fit the ribs of the blade assembly.

Caution! the blade assembly is very sharp. It can cause injury if handled incorrectly.

Caution! Do not use force when taking the blade assembly out of the blender, as this might cause damage. If necessary, tilt it slightly when removing.

Assembling the blender

Place the rubber seal on the blade assembly (Figure 5).
Insert the blade assembly holding the blender downwards. Turn it clockwise to fasten it using the filler cup as tool (Figure 6). Caution! Handle carefully!
Place the tank on the motor casing and turn it counterclockwise till it reaches the end stop. The two arrows should be aligned (Figure 7).
Set the lid on the tank and turn it till the nose is located directly over the handle (Figure 8).
The dual safety device only allows the blender to be operated if the tank and lid are correctly positioned (Figures 7 and 8). See paragraph on the "Dual Safety System".
Insert the filler cup (Figure 1/C), and lock it in.

Operating the Blender

Place the blender on a level, dry surface.
Open the lid (Figure 1/D) and put all the required ingredients in the tank. Important! Do not exceed the maximum capacity of 1.5 litres.
You can add other ingredients through the filler hole while the blender is running. You can use the filler cup in the lid to do this (Figure 1/C). Close the filler hole immediately after, to avoid splashing.
Start the blender by turning the selector (Figure 1/J) to the right, or by pressing the Pulse Button (Figure 1/H).
i We recommend starting with blender Speed 1, then progressing to Speed 2.

GB

The Pulse Button runs the blender at full speed.

When you have finished using the blender, turn the tank clockwise and remove. Then turn the lid clockwise and remove.

Do not let the blender run for more than 3 minutes at a time. After running for 3 minutes, the blender should be left to cool for at least 10 minutes.

Dual Safety System

The appliance has a dual safety feature. This prevents the blender from being operated if the lid or the tank have not been positioned correctly.

You should nevertheless still keep children away from the appliance.

Ice crushing

The blender can be used for crushing ice. Always add a little water to the tank before using the blender to crush ice.

Pour the water into the tank.

Switch the blender on. Either speed may be selected. However, we recommend using the Pulse Button, as this will crush the ice more quickly.

You can add more ice through the filler hole in the lid while the blender is running.

Care and Cleaning

Before cleaning the blender, take the plug out of the socket.

Make sure that no liquids get inside the motor casing!

Clean the casing with a damp cloth. Never immerse in water or clean under running water.

The tank and blade assembly can be cleaned quickly and safely using the Pulse Button.

Pour warm water into the tank, with a few drops of washing-up liquid.

Mix the water and wahing-up liquid, by pushing the Pulse Button briefly.

Finally, rinse the tank under running water.

If necessary, the blade assembly can also be cleaned separately.

Be careful when rinsing the blade assembly (The blades are sharp!). Use only water and washing-up liquid. Never put parts of the appliance in a dishwasher.

When replacing the blade assembly, turn it clockwise using the filler cup as tool. See paragraph "Assembling the Blender".
