blender and mill

• To ensure long life of your blender, never run it for longer than 60 seconds or the mill for longer than 30. Switch off as soon as you've got the right consistency.
• Don't process spices – they may damage the plastic.
• The machine won't work if the blender or mill is fitted incorrectly.

blender only

• Don't put dry ingredients into the blender before switching on. If necessary, cut them into pieces; remove the filler cap; then, with the machine running, drop them through one by one. Keep your hand over the opening. Empty regularly.
• Don't use the blender as a storage container. Keep it empty before and after use.
• Never blend more than 1 litre (1% pints) – less for frothy liquids like milk shakes.

hints

• When making mayonnaise, put all the ingredients, except the oil, into the blender. Then, with the machine running, pour the oil into the filler cap and let it run through.
• Thick mixtures, eg pâtés and dips, may need scraping down. If it's difficult to process, add more liquid.
• When crushing ice, add 15ml (1 tbsp) water to 6 ice cubes. Operate the blender in short bursts.
