4 To remove the attachment, turn it anti-clockwise till the arrows match, then pull it
off the handle.
the speed buttons (#1)
5 Press the top button for low speed, release it to switch off.
6 Press the bottom button for high speed, release it to switch off.
7 Use high speed with the wand.
8 With the jug and chopper, use low speed for a coarser chop, and high speed for a
fine chop. If the size of the chop is critical, low speed gives you a bit more control.
9 With the whisk, wire beaters, or dough hooks, use low speed to incorporate the
mixture, then change to high speed for mixing. The whisk at low speed is ideal for
making mayonnaise.
the wand
10 Generally, the wand can do anything a normal blender can do, but faster, and with
less washing up – make mayonnaise, milkshakes, smoothies, or fruit drinks in the
beaker. You can blend, pulp or purée ingredients in the pan or bowl you're going to
cook them in.
11 Whatever container you use, make sure it's on a stable, flat surface, and support it
with your free hand, to prevent it wandering over the work surface.
12 Don't immerse the wand past the max mark. Don't use it for more than three
minutes at a time, then leave it for a minute to cool down.
avoiding spray/splashing
a) hold the wand straight
b) don't switch on till it's well inside the food container
c) switch off before lifting it out of the container
d) with liquids, switch on and off with the blade under the surface
hot liquids
13 The wand will withstand temperatures near boiling point. When using it in hot
liquids, don't let the blade break the surface at an angle, as you might spray liquid
outside the bowl/pan/container.
14 Don't use the wand in hot oil – not even moderately hot oil. While you may be able
to stand fairly hot water, oil at the same temperature will cause painful burns. Water
can be thrown off immediately and the skin will rapidly cool, but oil will stick to the
skin and blister it.
the beaker
15 When using it with the wand, don't fill above the max mark on the beaker (500ml or
a bit under 18 fluid ounces), to prevent the contents escaping.
16 It has a snap-on lid for storage.
17 Sit it on a stable, flat work surface, and support it with your free hand.
18 Don't lift it off the work surface and hold it in your hand – if it slips, you'll hurt
yourself.
19 Don't use the beaker with the whisk or wire beaters. If you fill it full enough for the
whisk or wire beaters to be effective, it'll overflow when you switch on.
