8. Using the blender jug

WARNING!

Risk of injury from rotating and moving parts

The cutting blades are very sharp! Therefore, avoid touching the blade assembly!

1) Place the blender jug onto the drive rod and screw it onto the stand housing in a clockwise direction so that the handle is then pointing to the right.

Cut up larger pieces of food so that they are small enough to fit into the blender jug without squashing.
Fill the blender jug.

2) Place the protective lid and measuring cup on the blender jug.

Select the appropriate speed based on the required use in accordance with the following table:

Speed level Food
1 Blending liquids
2 Blending liquids containing solid foods
P	For crushing ice (in liquid) Chopping solid foods

NOTICE!

Using pulse mode

When chopping food, working in pulse mode (speed control position P) will achieve the best results. Operating it for longer will chop the food too finely.

If food residues remain stuck to the side of the jug (e.g. in the case of herbs or other moist foods), switch the appliance off and dislodge the residues with a flat spoon or spatula. Return them to the jug and pulse two or three more times to chop them.

To add ingredients, either remove the protective lid completely or just the measuring cup. After filling, close the blender jug with the lid straight away.

Once the food has been chopped sufficiently, wait until the blade stops. Move the speed control to the 0 position and unplug the mains cable.
Turn the blender jug anticlockwise to remove it from the drive shaft.

Remove the lid and measuring cup and empty the blender jug.

8.1. Dismantling the blade for the blender jug

• Switch the appliance off by moving the speed control to the 0 position and disconnect the food processor from the mains.
• Turn the blender jug anticlockwise to remove it from the drive shaft.

Remove the lid and measuring cup and empty the blender jug.

Place the blender jug upside down on a stable and even surface.
Twist the drive adapter on the blender jug in a clockwise direction to unscrew it from the blender jug.
Clean the drive adapter and the blade for the blender jug as described under "Cleaning the appliance" on page 46.
- Then screw the drive adapter back onto the blender jug by turning it in an anticlockwise direction.
