How to Use the Appliance

Setting the speed

When activating the variable speed button (2), the processing speed corresponds to the setting of the variable speed regulator (1). The higher the setting, the faster the chopping results. You can adjust the speed conveniently during operation by turning the speed regulator.

Maximum processing speed can be achieved by pressing the Turbo button (3). You may also use the Turbo button for instant powerful pulses without having to manipulate the speed regulator.

Blending Shaft (A)

The hand blender is perfectly suited for preparing dips, sauces, salad dressings, soups, baby food, as well as drinks, smoothies and milkshakes. For best results, use the Turbo speed.

Assembly and Operation

• Attach the blending shaft (6) to the motor part until it clicks.
• Place the blending shaft into the mixture to be blended. Then switch the appliance on.
• Blend ingredients to the desired consistency using a gentle up-and-down motion.
  • After use, unplug the hand blender and press the release buttons (5) to detach the blending shaft.

Caution

• If using the appliance to purée hot food in a saucepan or pot, remove the saucepan or pot from the heat source and ensure the liquid is not boiling. Allow hot food to cool slightly to avoid risk of scalding.
• Do not let the hand blender sit in a hot pan on the cooktop when not in use.

Recipe Example: Mayonnaise

250 g oil (e.g. sunflower oil)

1 egg and 1 extra egg yolk 1–2 tbsp. vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

• Place all ingredients (at room temperature) into the beaker in the order as above.
• Place the hand blender at the bottom of the beaker. Blend at Turbo speed until the oil starts emulsifying.
• With the hand blender still running, slowly raise the shaft to the top of the mixture and back down to incorporate the rest of the oil. NOTE: Processing time: approx. 1 minute for salads and up to 2 minutes for a thicker mayonnaise (e.g. for dip).

Whisk Accessory (A)

Use the whisk only for whipping cream, beating egg whites, making sponge cakes and ready-mix desserts.

Assembly and Operation

• Attach the whisk (8b) to the gearbox (8a).
• Align the motor part with the assembled whisk attachment and push the pieces together until they click.
• After use, unplug and press the release buttons to detach the motor part. Then pull the whisk out of the gearbox.

Tips for Best Results

• Move the whisk clockwise while holding it at a slight incline.
  • To prevent splattering, start slowly and use the whisk attachment in deep containers or pans.
• Place the whisk in a bowl and only then switch the appliance on.
• Always ensure the whisk and mixing bowl are completely clean and free of fat before whisking egg whites. Only whip up to 4 egg whites.

Recipe Example: Whipped Cream

400 ml chilled cream (min. 30% fat content, 4 - 8 °C)

• Start with low speed and increase the speed while whipping.
  • Always use fresh chilled cream to achieve greater and more stable volume when whisking.

Puree Accessory (B)

The puree accessory can be used to mash cooked vegetables and fruits such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, plums and apples.

Before Use

• Do not mash hard or uncooked food, as this may damage the unit.
• Peel and remove any stones or hard parts; cook and drain then mash the food.

Assembly and Operation

• Fit the gearbox (9a) to the shaft (9b) by turning in a clockwise direction until it locks into place.
• Turn the puree accessory upside down and fit the paddle (9c) over the central hub and turn counter-clockwise to locate. (If the gearbox is not fitted properly, then the paddle will not secure in place).
• Align the assembled puree accessory with the motor part and click the two parts together. Plug in.
• Dip the puree accessory into the ingredients and switch on the appliance at speed 11.
• Using a gentle up and down motion, move the puree accessory through the ingredients until the desired texture is achieved.
• Release the variable speed button and ensure the puree accessory has completely stopped turning before removing it from the food.
  • After use, unplug the appliance. Remove the paddle (9c) by turning clockwise.
• Press the release buttons to detach the puree accessory from the motor part. Separate the gearbox from the shaft by turning counterclockwise.

Caution

• Never use the puree accessory in a saucepan over direct heat.

• Always remove the saucepan from the heat and allow to cool slightly.

• Sit the saucepan or bowl on a stable, flat surface, and support it with your free hand.

• Do not tap the puree accessory on the side of the cooking vessel during or after use. Use a spatula to scrape excess food away.
• For best results when mashing never fill a saucepan or bowl more than half full with food.
• Do not process more than one batch without interruption.
• Let the appliance cool down for 4 minutes before you continue processing.

Recipe Example: Mashed Potatoes

1 kg cooked potatoes

200 ml warm milk

Chopper Accessory (C)

The choppers (10/11/12) are perfectly suited for chopping meat, hard cheese, onions, herbs, garlic, vegetables, bread, crackers and nuts.

Use the «hc» chopper (10) for fine results.

Before Use

• Pre-cut foods into small pieces for easier chopping.

• Fill the chopper with food and put on the lid (10a/11a/12a).

• For ice crushing, fill up to 7 ice cubes into the chopper bowl (12d) and use the special ice blade (12c).

• Align the chopper with the motor part (4) and click together.
• To operate the chopper, switch on the appliance. During processing, hold the motor part with one hand and the chopper bowl with the other.
