 5 ■ CAUTION! MATERIAL DAMAGE! ■ Do not use the appliance in direct sunlight or near any heatgenerating appliances. ■ NEVER fill the blender with boiling liquids or other foods! Allow these to cool to a lukewarm temperature. ■ NEVER operate the appliance when it is empty, i.e. without ingredients in the blender attachment. Unpacking ■ Remove all packaging materials or protective films from the appliance. Retain the packaging, so that you can store the appliance safely or send it by post, e.g. if it needs to be repaired. ■ Before using the appliance, check that it is free of damage; check also that the power cable and plug as well as all accessories and appliance parts are undamaged. ■ Clean all components carefully before using the appliance for the first time (see “Cleaning”). Setting up Once all components have been cleaned as described in the section “Cleaning”: ■ Position the appliance so that, … – that the mains cable passes through the recess at the rear of the appliance, – the power plug is immediately accessi- ble, so that it can be quickly withdrawn in the event of danger, – that it remains stable and is not at risk of slipping. This will prevent it from tipping over due to vibrations. – that the mains cable is not in the working area and thus does not present a risk of being inadvertently snagged and tipping the appliance over. Operation WARNING! ► The motor switches off automatically as soon as the blender 3 is removed from the motor block 6 or the lid 2 is opened. In such cases it may be easy to forget that the machine is still switched on. The motor will then start unexpectedly as soon as the blender attachment 3 is fitted or the lid 2 is closed again: Therefore: – Do not insert the power plug into the wall socket until the blender 3 is filled and mounted with its lid fitted and closed. – Before fitting the blender, always check to see that the appliance is switched off or that the power plug has been removed. – Switch the appliance off first, pull the plug out and wait until the motor has come to a standstill before removing the blender 3 or opening the lid 2.

the motor block 6. To do this, use the recesses on the motor block 6 and ensure that the arrow T on the blender is pointing to the symbol while doing so. Turn the blender 3 clockwise to position until it audibly engages. The motor cannot start until the blender 3 is fitted flush. Selecting the speed setting Once the blender 3 is filled and sitting com- pletely closed on the motor block 6, you can switch on the appliance. Set the switch 5 to … ■ Level 1 – 3 for liquids or soft foodstuffs, for mixing, blending and stirring ■ Level 3 – 5 for more solid foods or for chopping ■ Level P (pulse function) for short, powerful impulse operation, e.g. for crushing ice cubes or when cleaning. To prevent overloading the motor, the switch 5 does not lock in this position. Therefore, hold the switch 5 in this position for short periods only. Note ► Fill the blender 3 with ice cubes up to the 375 ml mark at the maximum. Other- wise, the ice cubes will not be crushed optimally. Filling while in use WARNING! ► If you want to add additional foods during operation, use only the measuring cap 1 provided for this purpose. Do NOT open the lid 2. ► Do not insert cutlery items or mixing tools into the blender 3 while the appliance is in use. There is a considerable risk of injury if these come into contact with the swiftly rotating cutting blades 4! To add more food while the appliance is in use, …

1) Remove the measuring cap 1 from the

3) Press the measuring cap 1 back into the

Removing the blender Once you have finished processing the food in the attachment:

1) Always start by setting switch 5 to the off

position (“0”) and pulling out the mains plug.

2) Wait until the motor has come to a complete

standstill before lifting the blender 3 off the motor block 6. Rotate the blender 3 anticlockwise until the arrow T under the blender handle is located above the position. Remove the blender 3 from the motor block 6 in a vertical, upward motion. Useful tips ■ To achieve the best results when puréeing firm ingredients, add small amounts one after the other into the blender 3 rather than a single large portion. ■ When processing firm ingredients, cut them into small pieces (2 – 3 cm). ■ Add at least 50 ml of liquid when puree- ing fruit or vegetables. ■ Add thicker ingredients (such as yoghurt) into the blender 3 first. If any of ingre- dients are not picked up during mixing, remove the blender 3 from the motor block 6, remove the lid 2 and stir the ingredients with a suitable implement, such as a spoon. Replace the blender 3 back on the motor block 6 with the lid 2 closed and continue mixing. ■ When mixing liquid ingredients, start off with a small amount of liquid. Gradually add more liquids to the mixture through the measuring cap. ■ The appliance can be stabilised by placing your hand on top of the closed blender during operation. ■ For stirring solid or very thick liquid foods, it can be useful to use level P to prevent the cutting blades 4 from blocking. Note ► Do not use the appliance to grind crystals of cooking salt, refined sugar or white sugar. For example, to make powdered sugar.

Adapt these recipe suggestions based on your personal experience. ► In cases of lactose intolerance, we recom- mend you use a lactose-free milk. Keep in mind, however, that lactose-free milk is a little sweeter. Cleaning DANGER! Before starting to clean the blender and its components: ► Ensure that the motor is switched off and the power plug removed from the socket. Do not immerse the motor block 6 in water or other liquids. This could result in you receiving a fatal electric shock and cause damage to the appliance. ► Never open the housing of the appliance. Otherwise, there is a risk of a fatal electric shock. WARNING! ► Never insert your hand or fingers into the blender 3, especially while it is in use. The cutting blades 4 are extremely sharp! CAUTION! ► Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners on the plastic surfaces, they could be damaged by them. Cleaning the blender ■ To prevent injuring yourself on the cutting blades 4, clean the blender 3 only with a long-handled washing-up brush. ■ Clean the measuring cap 1 and the lid 2 in mild soap solution. Ensure that the rub- ber seal 9 is correctly fitted before using the lid 2 again. Note You can also clean the lid 2, the measuring cap 1 and the blender3 with the cutting blade 4 in your dishwasher. If possible, place all the parts in the upper basket of the dishwasher and make sure that they are not jammed in place. ■ If you clean the appliance directly after use, you can usually achieve sufficiently hygienic cleaning results by using the following alternatives: Fill the blender 3 with 750 ml of water and add a couple of drops of mild wash- ing up liquid. Close the lid 2 and fit the blender 3 onto the motor block 6. Insert the mains plug into the socket and activate the pulse function a few times so that the cutting blades 4 plough through the water at maximum speed. Afterwards, rinse the blender 3 with plenty of clean water to remove any washing up liquid residues. ■ To remove stubborn dirt, you can remove the attachment

with the cutting blades 4 from the blender jug 3:

1) Remove the blender 3 from the motor

block 6. For better stability, remove the lid 2 by turning it anticlockwise towards the position (see fig 1) until you can pull it off upwards.

2) Turn the appliance upside down and turn

the attachment A with the cutting blades 4 anticlockwise so that it can be detached from the blender jug3 (see fig. 3). WARNING! ► Handle the cutting blades 4 with extreme caution. They are very sharp.

3) Clean both parts thoroughly in a mild

soap solution. Note ► If necessary, you can remove the sealing ring B from the attachment A with the cutting blades 4. Pull the sealing ring B out of the attachment A and clean it in a mild soap solution. Then rinse off the sealing ring B in fresh water. You can also clean the blender jug 3 and the attachment A with the cutting blades 4 in your dish- washer.

4) Dry all parts thoroughly before reassem-

5) Replace the attachment A with the cutting

blades 4 onto the blender jug 3 and turn it clockwise. Make sure the sealing ring B is inserted correctly. Cleaning the motor block

1) Clean the surfaces with a damp cloth. If

necessary, apply a mild washing-up liquid to the cloth. Afterwards, wipe off with a cloth moistened only with water to ensure that no detergent remains on the appli- ance. Then dry the surfaces thoroughly.

2) When cleaning, always check that the con-

tact switch in the fitting for the blender 3 is not blocked by soiling residues. If you cannot dislodge any blockages with the corner of a piece of paper, make contact with Customer Services. Do not use any hard objects, these could damage the contact switch.

3) Remove any possible residues on the

underside of the motor block 6 with a dry cloth or a stiff-bristled brush only. Ensure that nothing can get in through the ventilation openings of the appliance. Storage

1) If you do not intend to use the blender for

an extended period, clean it thoroughly (see chapter “Cleaning”).

2) Wrap the power cable around the cable re-

tainer 7 on the base of the motor block 6.
