Product overview

To use your blender

Use your blender for soups, drinks, pâtés, mayonnaise, breadcrumbs, biscuit crumbs, chopping nuts and crushing ice.

  1. Fit the blender sealing ring 4 into the blender blade unit 5 ensuring the seal is located correctly in the grooved area.
    • Leaking will occur if the seal is damaged or incorrectly fitted.
  2. Screw the blade assembly onto the goblet —ensuring the blade assembly is fully tightened 1.
  3. Put your ingredients into the goblet.
  4. Put the filler cap in the lid.
  5. Fit the lid to the goblet and turn clockwise to lock.
  6. Place the blender onto the power unit lock by turning clockwise until you hear a “click” 2
    1. The appliance will not work if the blender is incorrectly fitted.

Blender hints

  • To blend dry ingredients – cut into pieces, remove the filler cap, then with the appliance running, drop the pieces down one by one. Keep your hand over the opening. For best results empty regularly.
  • The processing of spices is not recommended as they may damage the plastic parts.
  • When making mayonnaise, put all the ingredients, except the oil, into the blender. Remove the filler cap. Then, with the appliance running, add the oil slowly through the hole in the lid.
  • Thick mixtures, e.g. pâtés and dips, may need scraping down. If the mixture is difficult to process, add more liquid.

To use your grinding mill

Suitable for grinding spices, coffee beans and processing ginger, garlic and chillies.

  1. Place your ingredients into the mil jar 8.
  2. Fit the grinding mill sealing ring 9 into the grinding mill blade unit 10, ensuring the seal is fitted correctly in the grooved area.
  3. Turn the blade unit 10 upside down, lower it into the jar, blades down and turn clockwise to lock 3.
  4. Place the mill onto the power unit and lock by turning clockwise until you hear a “click” 4.
  5. Select a speed or use the pulse control.

Grinding mill hints

  • For optimum performance when processing spices we recommend that you do not process more than 50g at a time in the mill.
  • Whole spices retain their flavour for a much longer time than ground spices so it is best to grind a small quantity fresh at a time to retain the flavour.
  • To release the maximum flavour and essential oils whole spices are best roasted prior to milling.
  • Baby food/purees – allow cooked food to cool to room temperature before processing in the mill.
