Algemeen

This attractive blender has been designed by Jan des Bouvrie. The appliance can be used to finely chop fruit and vegetables or to make delicious shakes and juices. Both the housing and the jug are of a modern and luxurious design.

The Jan des Bouvrie Blender has a powerful motor with two speed settings and a pulse setting.

The jug has a lid with an opening through which it can be filled. Products can be added through this opening whilst blending without making a mess. The jug has a volume of 0.8 litres. Steel knives are integrated in the jug, so that the blender can easily chop and puree both large and small pieces of fruit and vegetables.

The device must be connected to the mains power supply.

Before using for the first time

1 Remove all the packaging materials and stickers from the appliance.
2 Clean the appliance and all the accessories (see 'Cleaning and maintenance') and dry them thoroughly.

Blending products

1 Place the housing on a stable surface.
2 Fit the jug to the housing. The three catches on the housing must fit precisely into the slots in the base of the jug.
3 Place the lid on the jug.
4 Place the filler cap in the lid and tighten the filler cap by rotating it a quarter of a turn.
5 Cut the fruit and/or vegetables into pieces. Do not make the pieces too large. They must be small enough to fit into the bottom of the jug.
6 Open the lid and put the pieces in the jug.
7 Place the lid back onto the jug to prevent splashing.
8 If the rotary button is in 0-position and pushed in, the button is locked. Push the rotary button to unlock it (see figure 2).
9 Switch the blender a few seconds to setting 1 or 2 or the pulse setting (P). This blender works very fast. In seconds the product will be chopped. The longer the blender is turned on, the finer the products will be chopped.
10 If necessary, you can top up the jug by opening the filler cap. Unscrew it a quarter of a turn and remove it from the lid. If the pieces to be added do not fit through the filler opening, turn off the blender, remove the lid and place the pieces in the jug. Place the lid back on the jug before turning the blender back on.
11 Switch off the blender (position 0) once the required quantity of fruit and/or vegetables have been chopped.
12 Push the rotary button to lock it (see figure 2).
13 Remove the plug from the plug socket.
