2. Make sure that the mixer is not activated.

cause engine problems. Do not use the mixer for more then
1 minute continuously, wait 1 minute before you operate it

tips
• When the jug is cracked, do not use the mixer anymore.
This could lead to damage while using the mixer.
• To avoid splashes always place the lid on the jug.
• Always add liquid ingredients before adding solid ingredients
in the mixer.
• The mixer mixes best when you do not add pieces which are
too large.
• Always add a half a cup of liquids when you crush ice cubes.
• To add ingredients while the mixer is activated, take the cap
out of the lid and add the ingredients through the opening.
• When the ingredients stick to the sides of the jug or are not
mixed properly, shut off the engine: wait until the knives have
stopped turning and push the ingredients with a spatula
towards the knives.
• To prevent the ingredients from being blend to small,
take into account that the mixer mixes in seconds, not
minutes!
• Working with warm ingredients can cause a build-up of
pressure in the jug and that can cause hot liquids to escape
when you take the lid of the jug. Therefore always remove the
cap from the lid when you are processing warm ingredients.
