SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: the safety instructions are an integral part of the appliance. For your own safety, please read them carefully before using it for the first time. • Never go above the Max.1.8 L mark. • Never run the blender if the lid if not secured properly or if the lid seal and blades are not assembled correctly. • Never put your fingers or anything other than the spatula delivered with the product in the bowl while the blender is operating. • If the blades get stuck, always disconnect the blender before removing the ingredients. • Always disconnect the blender (i) if it is left without surveillance, (ii) before mounting, dismounting or cleaning, (iii) before changing the attachments and (iv) when you need to go near any moving parts. • All surfaces in contact with food must be cleaned with soapy water or washing-up liquid (see further details under CLEANING). • Special precautions must be taken when handling sharpened blades, when emptying the bowl and during cleaning. There is a risk of injury if the blender is used incorrectly. • Never immerse the blender in water or other liquids in order to avoid the risk of electrocution. • Do not place the blender on or near a gas burner or hot plate nor in a hot oven. • This appliance is intended solely for use in the home. • Do not use the blender outside. • Children must not play with the blender. The blender must not be used by children. Keep the blender and its cord out of reach of children. • The blender can be used by persons whose, physical, sensory or mental capacities are reduced, or by persons who have no experience or knowledge of the appliance, provided they are properly supervised or have been instructed beforehand on using the blender safely and they understand the risks involved. • Use of the appliance in the following cases is not covered by the warranty: in staff kitchen areas in stores, offices and other working environments, in farms, by guests in hotels, motels, bed & breakfasts, guest houses and other residential environments.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS RISK OF BURNS • NEVER process hot ingredients (solid or liquid) in the BlendCups or mill attachment, as blending hot foods in a lidded jug can lead to a build-up of pressure, forcing out scalding steam or liquids. • Processing hot foods in the 1.8l jug: blending hot ingredients at high speed can lead to a build-up of pressure, forcing out scalding steam or liquids. Always take care when pouring in a hot liquid, as it may suddenly boil up and escape from the jug. • Never introduce hot ingredients (solid or liquid) if they are over 60 °C in temperature. Always make sure the lid is firmly fitted but the measuring cap is only loosely positioned, to allow any steam to escape. Always use the SOUP programme or start at a low speed and gradually increase it. Never use the PULSE button. MAINS CONNECTION • Your appliance must be connected to an earthed socket with the original power cord. • Check that the voltage indicated on its identification plate corresponds to the voltage of your mains supply. • Never allow the power cord to dangle over the edge of your worktop or counter, and make sure that it does not come into contact with hot surfaces. AFTER-SALES SERVICE • If the power cord has been damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a Magimix-approved service agent or a similarly qualified person, in order to avoid all risks. • The use of parts that are not recommended or sold by Magimix may result in injury, fire or electric shock.

ADVICE Ice / frozen or sticky ingredients such as honey, banana and avocado Fresh fruit and vegetables except for banana and avocado Leaves, herbs such as spinach and fresh herbs Hard or dry ingredients such as cereals, nuts and carrots Liquids such as water, milk and fruit juice

For the best possible result: • Cut the food into chunks measuring approx� 2cm� • Coarsely chop the herbs or leaves before adding them� • Always add the ingredients in the order specified in the recipe� • When processing thick mixtures, always start at a low speed, otherwise the food will stick to the sides and not come into contact with the blades� If necessary, add a little liquid and use the spatula� • To add ingredients, either remove the measuring cap or stop the machine and remove the lid� • Never run your blender if the jug is empty� To process dry ingredients such as nuts and spices, we recommend using the mill attachment, which has a specially designed blade assembly. Never fill above the MAX mark. Never add solid or liquid ingredients if they are above 60°C in temperature. 28

ADVICE Tips • Hot soups: wait for the ingredients to cool to 60°C (tasting temperature) before blending. Make sure that the measuring cap is only loosely positioned on the lid, to allow any steam to escape. Either use the SOUP programme or start at a low speed and gradually increase it. Never use the PULSE button. • Crushed ice: the ICE function reduces ice cubes to a very fine, snow-like powder. If you want more coarsely crushed ice, put a small number of ice cubes (100/150g max.) in the jug and use the PULSE button. • To fold ingredients into a mixture without chopping them (e.g. chocolate chips in a cake mixture), add them at the end and run your blender for a further 5-10 seconds at a slow speed (0.5). • Using frozen fruit: when fruit come out of the freezer it sometimes forms a solid block. Break this block into cubes measuring roughly 2cm before putting in the jug, to avoid damaging your blender. • To rescue a lumpy sauce, blend it for 15 s at Speed 3. Automatic overload failsafe Your appliance is fitted with a safety system that cuts the motor if it is overloaded or has been running for too long. The indicator light then starts to flash. • Turn to the selector to 0 and unplug your appliance. • Wait for about 30 minutes before restarting your blender. • Reduce the amount of ingredients in the jug and/or add some liquid.

BLENDCUPS Tips and advice • Run at a low speed for the first few seconds, until all the ingredients are caught up in the blades, then gradually increase the speed� • Never run the blender continuously for more than 1 minute, otherwise the ingredients may heat up and pressure may build up inside the jug� • If blending is difficult, reduce either the speed or the amount being processed� If the preparation is thick, add some liquid (without going above the MAX mark)� • Dense or sticky (e�g� nut-based) preparations tend to stick to the sides� If this happens, switch the blender off, wait until the blades have come to a complete standstill and shake the jug downwards to send the ingredients back towards the blades� • The base of the jug is shaped to fit the cupholder in your vehicle�

CITRUS PRESS Slot the citrus press onto the lid�
