GETTING STARTED

  1. Before using your appliance for the first time: Remove all packing material such as plastics, stickers or tags that may be attached to the housing, bowls or attachments. Clean the appliance and accessories, see instructions: “Cleaning and Care”.
  2. Prepare the ingredients: Rinse ingredients thoroughly. Cut the ingredients into 4 to 6 pieces and remove any hard or large seeds. Remove any thick peel from the fruit or vegetables.
  3. Place the blender blade assembly (E) on the top of the blender blade assembly base (F) and tighten the jug (D) until it firmly locks into position. Place the assembled jug on the blender base (A) and rotate it clockwise until it locks into position. (The jug can only be placed in one position). When locked, the symbol on the blade assembly base should be aligned with the symbol on the blender base. Put the ingredients in the jug. (Do not exceed the maximum level as indicated on the jug.)
    Caution! Always place the sealing ring around the blender blade assembly before operating the product.. Use only sealing rings provided by Electrolux.
  4. Close the lid by aligning the lever on the lid with the handle of the jug. Insert the measuring cup. (You can add ingredients through the filler hole after you started processing. Never remove the measuring cup or the lid while running the product.)
    Caution! Never run the blender empty. When processing hot liquids, see step 5.
  5. Processing hot liquids: We recommend to allow hot liquids to cool down (max 90 °C) before filling the jug. Fill the jug only half full and start processing on low speed. The blender jug can become very warm – take care to protect your hands and to ventilate steam out through the filler hole. Always replace the lid before use.
  6. Start the blender: Plug into mains. Press the ON/OFF button (C), the buttons will light up. Press the speed 1 or speed 2 button, to select your desired processing speed.
  7. Caution! Keep hands and utensils out of the blending jug while blending. Never run the blender empty, running the blender empty can cause overheating and damage.
  8. You have preset speeds (1, 2), dedicated recipe programs, and Pulse mode to choose from. The selected speed or recipe program will light up. The blender will operate until the program is finished. To stop any program manually, press any button.
  9. You can give the ingredients a quick mix to get to your desired consistency with the Pulse function. Press the PULSE button(S) to go into Pulse mode. The PULSE and the speed buttons start blinking. Press 1 or 2 to pulse at different speeds.
  10. The product comes with a variety of recipe programs. You can choose between Ice crush (O) and Smoothies (P). The blender will stop automatically when the program is ready.
    USING THE MULTI-CHOPPER* (* CERTAIN MODELS ONLY)
  11. Turn the multi-chopper (J) upside down, with the open end facing upwards. Carefully remove the base for blade assembly (N) by rotating it clockwise, then remove the blade assembly (M). Fill the multi-chopper jar with the desired ingredients. Do not fill more than half full. Place the multi-chopper blade assembly (I), followed by the multi-chopper blade assembly base on the open end of the jar and rotate clockwise to fasten the jar. Turn the multi-chopper the right way up and lock into place on the blender base by rotating clockwise.
    Caution! Always place the sealing ring around the blender blade assembly before operating the product. Use only sealing rings provided by Electrolux!
    Note: When locked, the symbol on the multi-chopper blade assembly base should be aligned with the symbol on the blender base.
    Caution! The blades are very sharp!
    USING THE TAKEAWAY BOTTLE* (* CERTAIN MODELS ONLY)
  12. Fill the ingredients in the takeaway bottle (I). Place the blender blade assembly (E) on the open end of the jar and tighten the blender blade assembly base (F) by screwing it on the jar. Turn the take-away bottle upside down. Place the assembled takeaway bottle onto the blender base (A) and rotate it clockwise to lock until it clicks into position.
    Note: When locked, the symbol on the blender blade assembly base should be aligned with the symbol on the blender base.
    Caution! The blades are very sharp!
    USING THE COOLING STICK* (* CERTAIN MODELS ONLY)
  13. The cooling stick keeps your smoothies cool for longer. Unscrew the cap of the cooling stick (K) and fill it with tap water. Screw the cap back on the cooling stick and place it in the freezer until the water freezes.
  14. Place the frozen cooling stick in the take away bottle. Pour your freshly prepared blend into the take away bottle (I) and fasten with the drinking lid with carry handle (J). The cooling stick can be cleaned in a dishwasher.

CLEANING AND CARE

  1. To avoid crazing of the jug, always rinse the jug with only clean water right after usage. This is to prevent acids or essential oils from the ingredients that may attack the plastic material. After rinsing the jug, it can be washed by hand with detergent, or placed into the dishwasher for cleaning. Avoid leaving the ready dishes (e.g. soup, smoothie, juice) in the jug for a long time, especially when acidic ingredients (e.g. lime, lemon) is processed. However, if crazing would appear, the effect is purely cosmetic and it does not have any impact the integrity of the jug.
  2. Always rinse the jug thoroughly with only clean water before placing it to the dishwasher. Quick cleaning: Pour warm water into the jug, add a few drops of detergent. Mix water and detergent by pressing the PULSE button then speed 2 button a couple of times. Finally, rinse the jug under running water. www.electrolux.com
  3. Thorough cleaning of the blender base and interface: Switch off the blender and unplug the power cord. Wipe the blender base with a damp cloth.
    Warning! Never immerse the blender base, plug, or cord in water or any other fluid.
  4. Thorough cleaning of the jug: Note! The Blade assembly is not removable. Remove the lid and measuring cup. Rinse the blade assembly in water and detergent.
    Caution! Handle carefully, the blades are very sharp! All parts, except for the blender base are dishwasher safe.
    Enjoy your new Electrolux product!
