Then directly press the Smartspeed switch (3) according to the desired speed. If the Smartspeed switch (3) is not pressed within 5 seconds, the appliance cannot be switched on for safety reasons. The pilot light flashes red. In order to switch the appliance on, start again with step 1. 3. During operation you do not have to keep the safety button pressed.

Hand blender (see p. 3/fig. B)

The hand blender is perfectly suited for preparing dips, sauces, soups, mayonnaise and baby food as well as for mixing drinks and milk shakes. For best blending results use highest speed. • Click the motor part (4) into the blender shaft (6). • Position the hand blender deep in a beaker or bowl. Then switch the appliance on as described above. • After use unplug and press the release buttons (5) to detach the motor part. When blending directly in the saucepan while cooking, remove the pan from the stove first to avoid splashing of the boiling liquid (risk of scalding!). 9

Recipe example: Mayonnaise

250 g oil (e.g. sunflower oil), 1 egg and 1 extra egg yolk, 1–2 tbsp. vinegar (approx. 15 g), salt and pepper to taste Place all ingredients (at room temperature) into the beaker in the a.m. order. Place the hand blender on the bottom of the beaker. Operate the hand blender at maximum speed, keep it in this position until the oil starts emulsifying. Then without switching off slowly raise the shaft to the top of the mixture and back down to incorporate the rest of the oil. Processing time: from 1 minute (for salad) up to 2 minutes for more stiffness (e.g. for dip).

Whisk (see p. 3/fig. B)
