Under no circumstance may the motor block © 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 @ and never re- ach into the mixer jug @. The cutters @ are ex- tremely sharp! + Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners on the plastic surfaces, they could be damaged by them.

TD Clean the lid @ and the filling cap @ in a dish- washer or with the normal washing up. If you clean the liquidiser direcily after use, you can often achieve a saïisfactory and hygienic level of cleaning with the following alternative: D Fillthe mixer jug @ with water, close the lid @ and place the mixer jug @ on the motor block

Insert the power plug into the wall socket and activate the Ice Crush/Clean switch, causing the cutters @ to rotate in the water with maximum revolutions. Should this not dislodge the soiling, you can separate the lower plastic part of the mixer jug @ (with the cut- ters @) from the the glass part: ED Remove the mixer jug @ from the motor block

D Turn the plastic element ® of the mixer attach- ment @ anti-clockwise, such that it allows itself to be released from the glass element @. À Attention! Take care with the cutters @. They are very sharp. Risk of injury!

1B_ 61457 SSM550B1 LB3 17.11.2010 12:26 2 Seite 8 LD Clean both parts thoroughly in a mild soapy solution or in a dishwasher.
