11.2 Set up blender

WARNING

• If you place the blender improperly, it can cause damage.
• Place the blender on a flat, dry and non-slip work surface. The work area should be easy to clean, since you can not always prevent splatter.

Don't place the blender on or near the edge of the working surface.

Never place the blender on or near hot surfaces (eg. hobs, heating pipes, etc.). Note that the surface coatings of furnitures sometimes contain chemical additives which affect and soften the suction cups of the blender. In this way, residues can arise on the furniture surfaces. Therefore, place a non-slip surface under the blender.

The drive unit 5 is equipped with suction cups which provide a secure grip for the blender.

Set the blender up that it is easily accessible and near a power outlet.

2. Place the blender jug on the drive unit.
3. Ensure that the seal ring (5) is correctly positioned in the blade base.
4. Place the blade base on the drive unit and turn in clockwise direction to lock.

The blender jug (4) has a triangular mark on the lower end. The drive unit (8) also has a triangular mark (see Fig. 3 and 4).

1. Place the blender jug onto the drive unit so that the triangles on blender

jug and drive unit are aligned.

1. Turn the blender jug in clockwise direction, holding the drive unit firmly. The blender jug must engage tangibly and audibly.
