4. OPERATION

Preparing for use

This blender is designed to process small quantities of foodstuff and should not be used for any other purpose.

Before using for the first time, clean the casing of the motor with a damp cloth. Wash the shaft and the blade in hot, soapy water; do not immerse the upper part of the shaft. Dry all the pieces thoroughly.

IMPORTANT: Before fitting or removing any of the parts of this blender, unplug it from the mains.

Operating the blender

The blender is suitable for processing light foodstuffs, such as preparing sauces, soups, mayonnaise or purées.

Fit the accessory that you are going to use to the motor casing, turning it in an anti-clockwise direction until it is properly and securely fitted.

Once the mixer base is fitted (4), plug the blender into the mains. Place the food to be processed in a suitable container and place the blender in the position shown in

Figure 2. Push the on/off switch (1). If using models B-520PA, B-525MA, B-620M and

B-625MA, select the speed by turning the speed control (7). If necessary, push the Turbo button (2) to blend at high speed.

Operating the whisk

Push the whisk into the blender coupling until it locks (Fig. 5). Afterwards, connect it to the body of the blender (Fig. 6). Place the blender in the container, connect the plug to the mains and push the on/off switch to begin beating. Use the speed control to select the speed (models B-520PA, B-505MA, B-525MA and B-625MA only) or push the Turbo button.

You may use the jug (13) or another container for whisking. The contents of the bowl can be stored using the corresponding lid.

Operating the chopper (models B-505MA, B-520 PA, B-525MA, B-625MA)

The chopper may be used with dried fruits, herbs, hard-boiled eggs, dry bread, etcetera.

Fit the chopper blade (12) on the bowl's shaft. Place the ingredients to be chopped into the chopping bowl. Fit the motor body (3) onto the blender coupling (8), turning it anticlockwise until it fits firmly into place. Fit the blender coupling (8) onto the mincer lid (10) (fig. 3). Insert the plug into a mains socket and push the on/off switch. Use the speed control (7) to select a speed (models B-520PA, B-525MA, B-620M and B-625MA only) or push the Turbo button (2) to chop more rapidly. Once you have finished chopping, make sure that you remove the blade from the bowl before emptying out the contents.

Once you have finished chopping, you can store the contents of the bowl by using the multi-purpose lid (15) to seal it hermetically. Afterwards you can serve the contents by turning the revolving part of the multi-purpose lid until it coincides with the holes prepared in the fixed part of the lid (Fig. 4).

Wall mounting

The wall mounting allows the blender to be attached to a wall. To install the wall

mounting, use the screws supplied with the product, ensuring that they are properly secured.

Cleaning and maintenance

Disconnect the blender and unplug it from the mains before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning. Wash all the accessories immediately after use in order to prolong their useful life. Take care when handling the blades, as they are very sharp, and keep them out of the reach of children. The jugs (11 and 13) and the egg whisk (9) are dishwasher safe.
