USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Connect the appliance:

• Your appliance has 5 speeds and a turbo button. Always mix or knead in position “1” before switching to a higher speed - fig. 4.
  For kneading heavy doughs we recommend that you only use position "5" - fig. 5.
  ■ You can also increase the speed by pressing the TURBO button (A3).
  However we recommend that you use it only for a brief period of time (a maximum of 30 sec. for a heavy dough).
  Before removing the accessories, please switch off the appliance (this will avoid splashing). Set the speed selector (A2) to position "0" - fig. 7.

Mixer function with beaters B or kneaders C:

■ Depending on the amount to be prepared, place the ingredients in a suitable container (preferably a shallow bowl or cup).
- Set the speed selector (A2) to position "0" - fig. 1.
■ Insert the stems of the whisks (B) or mixers (C) in the holes provided and lock them.
- Immerse the accessories into the mixture, before switching on the unit - this will avoid splashing.

TIPS & TRICKS

Whisks and mixers have a specific design. The mixer or whisk with the alignment (D) must be placed in the biggest hole – fig. 2 and fig. 3.

Blender function E (depending on model)

Check that the appliance is unplugged, that the speed control (A2) is set to "0" and that the beaters or kneaders have been removed from the appliance.

■ Lift the panel at the back of the appliance and screw the blender shaft (E) anti-clockwise without forcing it until you hear a click (fig.8). If you feel resistance when screwing in, this means that the shaft is not correctly aligned. You should remove it completely and screw it in again correctly.
■ Connect the appliance: Dip the blender shaft into the preparation before starting the appliance to avoid splashing (Fig.11). Start using the Eject button (A1) (Fig.11). Stop the appliance before removing the blender shaft from the preparation (to avoid splashing).
■ Removing the blender shaft: Stop the appliance by selecting "0", disconnect it and unscrew the blender shaft (E) by turning clockwise (Fig.12).
- Do not use the blender shaft: In a container on a heat source. Do not use it empty or with ice cubes, to chop raw meat, dried fruit (almonds, hazelnuts, etc.).

IF THERE IS A PROBLEM

Problem Cause Solution
My appliance does not switch on.	Your appliance is not connected.	Check the connection and voltage of your appliance.
The turbo function does not work.	You have already reached the maximum speed with the speed controller (A2).	The turbo allows for maximum speed directly without the speed controller (A2) .
I cannot attach my whisk (B) and mixer (C) accessories.	Poor positioning.	■ Respect the assembly direction- fig. 2.■ Invert the position of the accessories.
The whipped cream does not bind together and become stiff.	■ The cream is not cold enough.■ The whisks are not sufficiently immersed in the mixture.■ The container is not adapted to the quantity of ingredients.	■ Always use chilled cream: place the cream in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before use.■ Tip: place the container in the freezer for 1 hour.■ Make sure the preparation covers at least half of the whisks. Tip: use whole cream with at least 30% fat.
The unit overheats.	The quantities of ingredients are too large and do not respect the amounts set out in the manual.	Adjust the amounts of ingredients according to recipes listed in the recipe table.
The blender shaft (E) doesn’t work.	Your appliance is not connected or incorrect button pressed.	Check the connection or press the Blender shaft function (A1).
