4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Before using the blender for the first time, clean the dispenser cap, jug lid, jug and blade in warm soapy water and dry them thoroughly before assembling them again. ASSEMBLY Unplug the appliance before carrying out any dismantling or assembly operations.

1. Place the rubber seal (4) on the edge of

the blade unit (5) (Fig. B).

2. Insert the blade unit (5) in the joint (6)

(3) onto the joint (6) and turn it anti- clockwise (Fig. D).

4. Fit the jug onto the motor base (7),

aligning the jug with the grooves on the motor base (7), and then turn it clockwise (Fig. E)

5. Firmly close the lid (2) (Fig. F).

6. Place the dispensing cap (1) in the hole in

the lid and turn it anti-clockwise (Fig. G). To dismantle the blender, to clean it for example, carry out the assembly process in reverse order. Set up

• Place the mounted blender on a stable surface.

• Before switching on the blender, make sure the jug is correctly fitted onto the base.

• Make sure the selector (8) is turned to “0”.

• Plug the appliance in.

• Place or pour the ingredients or beverages to be mixed into the jug through the jug opening or lid (2). avoid mixing excessively hot foods and that you only put very small quantities of hot liquids or foods into the blender.

• Do not use the blender for very hard food products, such as bones, shelled nuts, frozen meats etc., which could either damage the blade or cause the motor to seize.

• CAUTION: Do not use the unit continuously more than 2 minutes.11

• Replace the lid (2) along with the top lid (1) (Fig. G) and switch the mixer on.

• To work continuously, place the selector (8) in position ‘1’, ‘2’. - To work at a low speed, turn the selector to position ‘1’. - To work at a high speed, turn the selector to position ‘2’.

• For functioning in discontinuous mode, turn the selector to P and hold it on this setting. When you release the selector, the blender will automatically return to the "0" setting.

When using the mixer for making drinks, wash all ingredients well and cut them into pieces so that they fit into the mixer opening.

• For optimum results, it is best to mix small rather than large quantities of food, especially when the item in question is very thick or heavy.

• Remove the top lid (1) from the jug lid (2) in order to add ingredients to the jug (3) while the motor is running.

• To avoid spillage, it is best to insert a small quantity of food into the jug through the lid opening, and then top up little by little as the food is mixed.

• Do not fill the jug up to more than 2/3 of its capacity, since the action of the blades may cause it to overspill.

• It is best to place liquid ingredients into the jug before solid ones. The liquid helps to mix the items more quickly and at a lower speed.

• Mix the ingredients for short times only (between 5 and 30 seconds). Then check the consistency and continue processing until you obtain the consistency you require.

• If the consistency you require is not obtained rapidly, stop the appliance by turning the selector to ‘0’ and: - Turn the selector to the P position a few times in a row. - Remove the jug lid and mix the food items using a spatula. - Reduce the quantity of food to be mixed.

• All fruit should be peeled and chopped and all stones, pips, etc. removed before being placed in the jug.

• Some vegetables, such as tomatoes, should also be peeled and chopped before being processed.

• When you begin mixing, hold the mixer lid down firmly.

• Remove any dampness or liquid on the mixer base immediately, using kitchen paper.

• Do not work with thick mixtures or heavy food items. If the motor is unable to work freely, it will stop. If this happens: - Add a little liquid to the mixture. - Set to P mode. - Stop the mixer for a few seconds and use a spatula to clean the sides of the jug and push the ingredients towards the blades. - Empty the jug a little.

• Insert the ice cubes into the jug.

• Replace the lid and press and hold P until the mixture obtains a snow-like texture.

NOTE: WHEN MIXING ICE, ALWAYS

HOLD THE JUG LID IN PLACE WITH YOUR HAND.

• Always add a cup of liquid when mixing ice.

SWITCHED OFF AND UNPLUGGED

BEFORE ADDING OR REMOVING ANY

• We recommend that you clean the appliance immediately after use. Remove the jug. Remove the lid and blades before inserting your hand or fingers into the jug in order to clean it.

• Never try to assemble or disassemble the mixer for cleaning purposes without first unplugging it from the mains.

• Use a small toothbrush (not provided) to remove any food that may have become12 wedged under the blades.

• Clean the motor housing with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scourers.

• It is easier to clean the mixer immediately after use. Pour warm soapy water into the jug and switch the mixer on for a few seconds. Switch the mixer off (‘0’) and remove the jug from the base. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

• IMPORTANT: Do not wash the blades in the dishwasher. The pressure and heat of the water may damage the assembly and prevent it from rotating, which in turn may provoke other damage in the mixer.

• Unplug the mixer from the mains after each use and before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning operation.

• Do not let the cable or plug become damp or wet.
