DO NOT THROW AWAY THESE INSTRUCTIONSEN

This appliance is equipped with a dual safety device, on the motor body (E) and on the lid (B). The motor body safety device allows to stop the operation when the goblet is raised (C). The safety device on the lid stops or prevents operation when the lid is not properly positioned on the goblet. The lid is equipped with a hook that engages in the handle and that, connected to the motor body, prevents the operation without a specific contact. - Make sure the appliance is plugged in. - Position the goblet (C) on the motor body (E), always with the handle in the position shown in Fig. 2, matching the arrow on the goblet side with the one on the motor body. - Cut fruit and vegetable into small pieces and place them into the goblet (C) adding water or milk. The liquid ingredients must not exceed 1200 ml. - Position the lid (B) on the goblet (C) so that the lid hook engages with the goblet handle and press it slightly downwards until it locks in place (Fig. 3). - Close the upper hole of the lid (B) by inserting the apposite cap (A) and rotating it clockwise (Fig. 4). Make sure the lid (B) and the cap (A) are properly inserted to prevent food from coming out during the processing stages. - Plug power cord into a socket. The function panel (F) and the function selecting dial (G) will light. The ON-OFF button (L) will become red indicating that the appliance is ready. - Press the ON-OFF button (L) and select one of the functions that can be seen on the function panel (F) by rotating the apposite dial (G). The function icon will flash. - Once having selected the required function, press the ON-OFF button (L) that will become green and the appliance will run automatically:EN

SOUP The appliance will operate at the highest speed for 6 minutes, heating the ingredients necessary for preparing hot soups. SAUCE This function allows to prepare sauces of any kind (tomato, pesto, etc.) in a very short time. VEGETABLE Use this function for preparing “green smoothies”. Unlike the “Smoothies” function, this program allows to perfectly mix the leafy ingredients. CRUSHER This program allows to crush ice finely. Suitable for preparing water ice. SMOOTHIES Use this function for preparing pure fruit smoothies that do not contain green leaves. RESET (manual) By selecting this function, the appliance will run in manual mode: - set the speed and the operating time using the apposite increase or decrease buttons (M). The selected parameters will be shown on the digital display (M). - Press the ON-OFF button (L) that will become green and the appliance will run automatically. The digital display (M) will show the elapsed time. - By selecting this function, it is possible to use also the pulse operation. Press and release the apposite “PULSE” button (P) to stop operation. For best results, keep pressed for a very short period (2/3 seconds). - Press the ON-OFF button (L) to stop operation. - If the appliance should fail to start, make sure the goblet and the lid are fitted properly. The appli- ance is fitted with a dual safety device to prevent it from operating if the goblet is not fitted or if it has been fitted incorrectly and prevents the blade from rotating if the lid is not suitably closed. - During use, it is possible to add foods into the goblet, by lifting out the filler cap (A) after having switched off the appliance. Press inserted food using the apposite presser (R) - Fig. 5. - It may be necessary to switch the appliance off several times in order to remove food residues from the goblet sides. In this case, switch the appliance off and unplug it. - Remove the cap and the lid and remove eventual remains inside the goblet by means of an appro- priate spatula.

Prepare the container with the food to mix and put it on the motor body before plugging the appliance in.EN

Never remove the lid (B) during use or when the goblet is positioned on the motor body: a safety closing system locks the lid on the goblet. Remove the goblet from the motor body before lifting the lid to avoid damages to the safety lock. Never pour hot liquids into the blender. The liquids must be within 50°C and must not exceed the 800 ml level in the goblet. Pay attention when removing the cap (A) to add and mix the hot ingredients. Steam may come out unexpectedly. Keep the food presser away from blades to avoid damage. AFTER PROCESSING

1. At the end of a program (crush, smooth, soup...), after 3 minutes downtime, the appliance enters

the stand-by mode: the ON-OFF button (L) will go on with the corresponding flashing red light, while the other buttons/lights will remain off. - At this point, to proceed with another use of the appliance, press the ON-OFF button (L) which flashes (the only light on). The whole panel and the texts on the dial (G) will go on and the “RESET” function will start flashing. - Rotate the dial (G) to proceed with the selection of one function, or press the increase/decrease buttons of time and speed to enter the manual mode. - Press the ON-OFF button (L) to start the program.

2. At the end of a program, if the goblet (C) is removed from the motor body (E), e.g. for pouring, and

immediately after it is placed back properly, after 3 minutes downtime, the appliance enters the stand-by mode: the ON-OFF button (L) will go on with the corresponding flashing red light, while the other buttons/lights will remain off. - At this point, press the ON-OFF button (L) which flashes (the only light on). The whole panel and the texts on the dial (G) will go on. - Press any other button, but NOT the ON-OFF button (L) to restart the appliance. The “RESET” function will start flashing. - Rotate the dial (G) to proceed with the selection of one function, or press the increase/decrease buttons of time and speed to enter the manual mode. - Press the ON-OFF button (L) to start the program.

DISASSEMBLY OF THE BLENDER

- Unplug the appliance and wait for the blades to stop completely before removing the goblet (C) from the base. - To remove the lid (B), remove the goblet (C) from the motor body so that the safety device locks and the lid can be removed easily without the risk of damaging the lock. - Pour the contents into a glass.EN

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Do not disassemble the appliance or try to intervene in any way inside it. Keep the appliance properly clean and tidy to ensure an optimal quality of prepared food and a longer life of the machine itself. - The goblet (C), the lid (B), and the cap (A) may be put in the upper part of the dishwasher. - Use a slightly damp cloth for cleaning the motor base. Do not use potentially abrasive products. - Clean blade thoroughly. - Store the appliance by winding the power cord on the appropriate cord winder (Fig. 6).

Never place the appliance body, plug or power cord in water or other liquids; always wipe clean with a damp cloth. Even when not in use, unplug the appliance before fitting or removing the single parts or before cleaning. Be very careful during cleaning of blade as it is extremely sharp. NOTE: The package contains 2 connecting joints (Q). They are spare parts to replace the damaged part already present in the product on the motor body (E). To replace the part: - remove the goblet (C) from the motor body (E); - remove the old joint by using the pliers (Fig. 8); - insert a new joint (Fig. 9); - make sure the new adapter is at the same height as the joint support (Fig. 10).FR
