8. Getting started

The stick blender is suitable for the following applications

chopping and puréeing fruit and vegetables in soups, sauces and dips
mixing drinks
making milkshakes

It is recommended that you adjust the speed of the stick blender to the food you are processing. Use normal speed for soft foods and the TURBO speed for harder foods.

If possible, put the food you wish to chop in a tall, narrow container with a flat bottom. This is perfect to achieve even puréeing results. Of course, you can also use the stick blender in a normal saucepan.

In order to avoid injuries from the rotating blades, only switch the stick blender on once the purée attachment (4) is in the food.

Mix or purée your food as follows:

• Put the food to be processed in a suitable container or saucepan.
• Place the purée attachment (4) into the food vertically.
• Start the stick blender using one of the On switches (1) or (2) depending on your requirements and keep the selected button pressed while mixing or puréeing. If the purée attachment (4) sticks to the bottom of the container, release the button briefly and then continue mixing.
• To ensure even processing of the mix, move the stick blender gently backwards and forwards.
• When you have the results you require, release the On switch (1) or (2) while the purée attachment (4) is still in the mixture.
• Wait until the blades have stopped moving before removing the purée attachment (4) from the puréed food.

9. Cleaning

Warning about damaging the unit! Do not use abrasive or astringent detergents or tools which could scratch the surface (e.g. metal sponges). Otherwise you could damage the stick blender.

It is recommended that you clean the purée attachment (4) right after you use it to avoid the food drying on it. Rinse the purée attachment (4) off straight-away with cold water, especially if you have been processing very salty foods.

• Unplug the mains plug from the wall socket.
• Remove the purée attachment (4) from the motor unit (3).
• Clean the motor unit (3) with a slightly damp cloth and then dry it carefully.
• The purée attachment (4) can be washed up in water. After use, rinse it with plenty of clean water to remove food residues. Then dry it carefully.
  • Alternatively, the purée attachment (4) can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.

10. Storage when not in use

If the stick blender is not to be used for an extended period, store it in a clean and dry place out of the reach of children.
