Blending In A Saucepan

• Do not use a non stick pan. The Blending Leg may damage the non stick coating.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat.
• To avoid excessive splashing, place the Blending Leg (5) into the food before switching your Hand Blender on.
• Hold the pan steady with your other hand and lightly press the Precise Control Trigger (2). Start slowly, and increase the speed as needed using the Precise Control Trigger.
• Move the Serrator Blade (6) through the food using an up and down motion.
• Allow the Blades to stop moving before removing from the pan.
• WARNING: Lifting the Serrator Blade out of the food while running, or using a high speed setting in a small pan could splash hot liquid. Extra care should be taken when using your Hand Blender in this manner.
• Do not insert your Hand Blender into the food past the join between the Main Unit (4) and the Blending Leg (5).
• Ensure the power cable does not touch any hot surfaces (including the side of the pan)

Hints & Tips.

• When blending foods with strong colour (eg. carrots), the Beaker (8) or plastic parts of the appliance may become discoloured. Wipe with cooking oil to clean any discoloured parts. Wash thoroughly in hot soapy water before re-using.
• When blending using the Blending Leg (5), start the process by inserting the Blending Leg into the ingredients. This will ensure all the ingredients are pulled into the blade to be processed. Gently rotate the Blending Leg, lifting it up and down in the ingredients. Continue this movement until the mixture is of the desired consistency. Do not remove from the liquid while the blades are in motion.
• Do not lift the Blending Leg out of the mixture completely when running, as splashing may occur.

Care and Cleaning

• WARNING: Always unplug the appliance from the mains socket before cleaning and maintenance.
  • WARNING: Handle the blades with care as they are sharp.
• Wash all parts except the Main Unit (4) and Blending Leg (5) in hot soapy water, dry immediately.
• Do not fully submerge the Blending Leg in water. Wash only the Serrator Blade head (6).
• Clean the Main Unit with a damp cloth and dry all the parts thoroughly.
• WARNING: Never immerse the Main Unit in water or any other liquid.
