GETTING STARTED

1. Before using the blender for the first time, make sure all the packaging has been removed before operating the appliance. Wash all parts except for the motor base.
   Caution! The blades are very sharp!
2. Place the motor housing on a flat surface. Ensure the speed selector is set to “0” before placing the jug on the motor base. Place the jug on the motor base, with handle on the right. Rotate clockwise until it locks. The blender is designed with a safety locking system. The blender will operate only if the jug or the grinder is locked correctly. Put the ingredients in the jug. (Do not exceed the maximum capacity indicated on the jug.) Processing hot liquids: Do not process hot liquid. Allow hot liquids to cool down until lukewarm
   (around 40oC) before filling the jug. Fill the jug only half full and start processing on low speed.
3.  Close the lid and insert the measuring cup in the filler hole and lock into position. Do not operate the blender if the lid is not locked in.
4.  Start the blender by turning the speed selector clockwise. Start at low speed, then progress to a higher speed if required. To use the PULSE function, turn the speed selector to PULSE position and release.
   For heavy load, please remove half of the contents and process them in 2 batches.
5. Ice crushing: Turn the speed selector to PULSE position and hold for 3-5 seconds several times until you obtain a satisfactory result. You can add more ice through the filler hole while the blender is running. The PULSE function allows greater control when blending, e.g. when chopping nuts or chocolates, or crushing ice.
   USING THE GRINDER
   
   The grinder consists of a grinder bowl and a blade assembly. It can be used to chop nuts, dried fruit, bread crumbs, garlic, onions etc.
   
6. Make sure the unit is unplugged and the speed selector is set to “0” before placing the grinder on the motor base. Turn the grinder upside down and carefully remove the blade assembly by turning it anti-clockwise. Fill the grinder bowl with the desired ingredients. Do not fill more than half full.
7.  Attached the blade assembly to the grinder bowl by turning the blade assembly clockwise. NOTE: If it is not tightly attached together the blender will not work due to a safety mechanism.
8.  Turn the grinder the right way up and lock into place on the motor base by turning clockwise. The triangle mark on the grinder should align with the lock mark on the grinder blade assembly. Plug in the appliance and select the desired speed setting. Caution! Do not operate the grinder continuously for more than 30 seconds. For better results, use the PULSE setting.
9.  When the ingredients have been ground/chopped to the desired consistency, unplug the appliance, and remove the grinder from the appliance. NOTE: Do not remove the grinder bowl directly from the motor base as this will cause the ingredients to spill out and expose the blade assembly.
10.  Turn the grinder upside down and carefully remove the blade assembly by turning it anti-clockwise. Remove the ingredients and wash the grinder bowl and blade assembly in soapy water immediately after use.
    CLEANING AND CARE
11. Quick cleaning: Pour warm water into the jug up to 750ml, add a few drops of detergent. Replace the lid and operate the blender for a few seconds by turning the speed selector to the PULSE position briefly. Finally, remove the jug and rinse it under running water.
12.  Thorough cleaning: Switch off the blender and unplug the power cord. Remove the jug from the motor base.
    •  Cleaning the motor base: Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Never immerse the motorbase in water or clean it under running water!
    •  Cleaning the jug: Remove the lid and jug. Turn the blade assembly clockwise and remove it by
      pulling it down. Rinse the blade assembly in water and detergent. Caution! Handle carefully, the blades are very sharp!
      The lid, jug and measuring cup can be washed in the dishwasher. Be careful when reassembling the blade assembly. Please see “Getting started” section, no. 1 for instructions on blade assembly.
