1) Switch the appliance off using the rotary

2) Turn the blender clockwise and remove it.

NOTE ► Ideally, you should clean the blender im- mediately after use (see the section "Cleaning and care"). This makes food residues easier to remove. Cleaning and care DANGER – ELECTRIC SHOCK! ► Before cleaning the appliance, disconnect the plug from the mains power socket! Risk of electric shock! NEVER immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid! ATTENTION! DAMAGE TO PROPERTY! ► Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaning materials. These may damage the surfaces of your appliance. TIPS ► It is best to clean the appliance directly after use. This makes food residues easier to remove. ► Processing foodstuffs containing strong pig- ments, such as carrots, may cause staining of the plastic parts. Such stains can be removed using a little cooking oil. Cleaning the appliance ■ Wipe the appliance with a damp cloth. For stub- born soiling use a mild detergent on the cloth. Wipe off any detergent residue using a cloth moistened with clean water. Then carefully dry the appliance. Cleaning the mixing bowl with lid, continuous shredder, lid with pusher, blender lid and all accessories ■ Clean all accessories, the mixing bowl with its lid , the blender lid and measuring jug, the protective cover for the drive hub, the continu- ous shredder and its lid with the pusher 3 as well as the shredding disc , grating disc and the rotary cutting disc - in warm water with a little detergent. Any residues can be re- moved with a washing-up brush. Rinse all parts with warm clean water and make sure that all parts are dry before re-using them. NOTE ► The accessories, the mixing bowl with its lid , the blender lid and measuring jug, the protective cover for the drive hub, the continu- ous shredder and its lid with the pusher 3 as well as the shredding disc , grating disc and the rotary cutting disc - are also suit- able for cleaning in the dishwasher. ► If you clean them in the dishwasher, please ensure that no plastic parts become trapped under pressure between other objects. This may cause them to become deformed. ► Wherever possible, place all plastic parts in the top basket of the dishwasher.GB

 25 ■ SKM 550 B1 Cleaning the blender WARNING! RISK OF INJURY! ► Do not handle the blender knife with your bare hands. ATTENTION! DAMAGE TO PROPERTY! ► The blender is not suitable for cleaning in a dishwasher. Cleaning it in a dishwasher will cause irreparable damage to the blender . ■ Clean the blender in warm water with a little mild detergent. Afterwards, rinse all parts with clean water so that no detergent residues remain. In most cases, you an also achieve sufficiently hygienic cleaning directly after use in the following way:

1) Put some water containing a little detergent

into the fully assembled blender .

2) Place the lid onto the measuring jug slightly

offset and then turn it until the lid clicks into place (Image I).

3) Switch on the blender for a few seconds.

4) Pour out the washing water. Any residues can

be removed with a washing-up brush.

5) Afterwards, rinse out the blender with

plenty of clean water, so that all detergent residues are removed. Storage ■ Place the mains cable in the cable storage com- partment % when storing the appliance. ■ Store the cleaned appliance in a clean, dust-free and dry location. Troubleshooting If the appliance suddenly stops working: ■ The appliance has overheated and triggered the automatic safety cut-out. – Turn the rotary switch . to 0. – Remove the plug from the wall socket. – Allow the appliance to cool for 15 minutes. – If the appliance has not yet cooled off com- pletely after 15 minutes, it will not start. – Wait a further 15 minutes and try switching on again. If the appliance does not switch itself on: – Check that the plug is correctly connected to a wall socket. – Check to make sure the protective cover for the drive hub for the blender and for the continuous shredder and the mixing bowl are all positioned correctly and clicked into place. – Check to see if the pivoting arm 0 is in the required position (see section “Operating positions”). If the steps described above do not solve the problem, then the appliance is defective. Arrange for it to be repaired by a qualified specialist technician or by the Customer Service Department.
