Useful tips: To achieve the best results when pureeing solid ingredients, place small portions into the glass jar one by one instead of placing a large quantity all at once. If you are processing solid ingredients, cut them into small pieces (2-3cm) first. When mixing solid ingredients start off first with a small amount of liquid. Gradually add more and more liquid through the opening in the lid. Always place your hand on top of the blender when you are operating the device. Be careful when processing hot liquids. For stirring solid or very thick liquid ingredients we recommend that you use the blender in impulse mode to prevent the blades from becoming stuck. Motor Base: Never immerse the motor base in water. Wipe it only with a moist cloth. Simple cleaning/ ri nsing out the assembled glass jar: Empty the glass jar and fill it with water. Place the glass jar on the motor base and push the ‘ Auto-clean ’ setting several times. Empty the glass jar and rinse until clean. Thorough cleaning of the dismantled glass jar: Ensure that the glass jar is completely empty before you unscrew the retaining ring. Be careful when handling the cutting blade.
