• Switch off the appliance and unplug it from the electrical power supply
before changing the accessories or handling the parts which move when
in operation.
USING THE APPLIANCE
• Before using your appliance for the first time, clean the accessories using
warm water and washing-up liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.
• Ensure that your work top is stable and dry.
• Place the ingredients in a container that is tall enough to avoid splash-
ing.
• Do not fill the cup to more than 500 ml (18 fl oz) to avoid splashing.
• Mixer shaft: FIG 4 & 1
- Screw the blender shaft (C) onto the motor unit (A), and ensure that the
shaft is screwed on completely before plugging in the appliance. FIG 4
- Insert the blender shaft (C) halfway down into the container and press
the speed start button (B1 or B2). The preparation must at least cover
the hand blender head to ensure efficient operation of the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the appliance when empty.
- Before mixing hot preparations, remove the container from the heat
source. For best results, there is no need to move the blender shaft
around in the preparation. Instead insert the shaft in the centre of the
container with the blender head submerged halfway down in the food.
FIG 6
- For stringy ingredients (leeks, celery, etc.), clean the shaft regularly
during the preparation, ensuring that you follow the safety instruc-
tions for dismantling and cleaning the appliance.
- When making fruit-based preparations, slice the fruit and remove the
cores and any stones beforehand.
- Do not use the appliance to prepare hard ingredients (sugar, choco-
late, coffee, etc.).
