Built-in safety lock
The appliance has been equipped with a built-in
safety lock that prevents it from functioning if the
blender jar, the juice extractor or their lids have
been assembled incorrectly or have not been
assembled at all.
Please note that the blender jar, the juice
extractor or their lids should never be used to
switch the appliance on and off!
Blender
Preparation
- Wash all detachable parts before you use them
for the first time (see section on cleaning).
- Put the rubber sealing ring (K) around the edge
of the knife unit (fig. 2).
- Attach the knife unit to the blender jar (J) by
turning it (fig. 3).
- Mount the blender jar with the knife unit
attached to it onto the motor unit and fix it by
turning it to the left (fig. 4). Be careful not to
exert too much pressure on the handle of the
jar.
(see fig. 1) - After you have put the ingredients in the jar,
press the lid (G) into place (fig. 5).
- Place the stopper (F) in the lid and turn it until it
is firmly fixed (fig. 6).
- Put the mains plug in the wall socket.
• To disassemble the blender, follow these steps
in reverse order and opposite direction.
How to use the blender
- Make sure that the appliance is plugged in and
that the blender jar has been properly attached
before you switch the appliance on.
- Select the speed that is most suitable for the
ingredients you want to process (fig. 7):
1 for light processing of mainly liquid
ingredients, e.g. chocolate milk.
2 for heavy processing of mainly solid
ingredients
• If you are not sure which speed to select, you
can always use the highest speed (speed 2).
- To let the appliance run for only a few moments
at a time, set the switch to position M and
release it straight away. Repeat this as often as
necessary.
- To switch the motor off, set the switch to
position O.
Tips
• Liquid ingredients (e.g. oil) can be poured into
the blender jar while the appliance is running
through the opening in the stopper.
• Ingredients can be added into the blender while
the motor is running through the opening in the
lid (fig. 8).
• The longer you let the appliance run (max. 3
minutes), the finer the blending result will
usually be. However, dry ingredients must not
be processed for more than one minute.
• Cut meat and other solid ingredients into small
pieces before you put them in the blender.
• Solid ingredients must be processed in small
amounts at a time.
• If the appliance isn't processing fast enough,
switch it off and
- set the appliance briefly to position M a few
times or
- switch the appliance off and stir the
ingredients with a spatula or
- pour out part of the contents of the jar.
• To grind ice cubes, drop them onto the rotating
knives through the opening in the lid.
• To make tomato juice, cut the tomatoes in four
and drop the pieces onto the rotating knives
through the opening in the lid.
