The CO time (continuous operation time) is the amount of time an appliance can be operated without the motor overheating and becoming damaged. When the specified CO time has been reached, the appliance must be switched off until the motor has cooled down to room temperature.

Setting up

Once all components have been cleaned as described in the section “Cleaning”:
■ Position the appliance so that, …
– that the mains cable passes through the recess at the rear of the appliance,
– the power plug is immediately accessible so that it can be quickly withdrawn in the event of danger,
– that it is stable and not liable to slip, and so that the sucker feet can attach firmly and the appliance cannot tip over due to vibration,
– that the mains cable is not in the working area and thus does not present a risk of being inadvertently snagged and tipping the appliance over.

Operation

WARNING!
► The motor switches off automatically as soon as the blender is removed from the motor block or the lid is opened. In such cases it may be easy to forget that the machine is still switched on. The motor will then start unexpectedly as soon as the blender attachment is fitted or the lid is closed again:
Therefore:
– Do not insert the power plug into the wall socket until the blender is filled and mounted with its lid fitted and closed.
– Before fitting the blender, always check to see that the appliance is switched off or that the power plug has been removed.
– Switch the appliance off first, pull the plug out and wait until the motor has come to a standstill before removing the blender or opening the lid.

Fitting and filling the blender

  1. Remove the blender from the motor block in a vertical, upward motion.
  2. Remove the lid by rotating it anticlockwise towards position until you can pull it upwards.
  3. Fill the blender to at least to the lowest line of the scale and at most to the MAX mark.
  4. Press the lid firmly down onto the blender. Close the lid by turning it clockwise to position it until it audibly engages. Ensure that the pouring spout on the blender is closed. The motor cannot start until the lid is fitted flush.
  5. Press the measuring cap into the lid as far as the stop.
  6. Place the completely filled and closed blender with the handle to the right on the motor block. Make sure that the arrow on the blender points to the arrow on the motor block. Turn the blender slightly back and forth if it does not immediately sit properly. The motor cannot start until the blender is fitted flush to the motor unit.

Selecting the speed setting
Once the blender is filled and sitting completely closed on the motor block, you can switch on the appliance.
Set the switch to …
■ Level 1 – 3
for liquids or soft foodstuffs, for mixing, blending, and stirring
■ Level 3 – 5
for more solid foods or for chopping
■ Level P (pulse function)
for short, powerful impulse operation, e.g. for crushing ice cubes or when cleaning. To prevent overloading the motor, the switch does not lock in this position. Therefore, hold the switch in this position for short periods only.  Once the blender is filled and sitting completely closed on the motor block, you can switch on the appliance. Set the switch to
■ Level 1 – 3
for liquids or soft foodstuffs, for mixing, blending, and stirring
■ Level 3 – 5
for more solid foods or for chopping
■ Level P (pulse function)
for short, powerful impulse operation, e.g. for crushing ice cubes or when cleaning. To prevent overloading the motor, the switch does not lock in this position. Therefore, hold the switch in this position for short periods only.
NOTE
► Fill the blender with a maximum of 250 ml of ice cubes. Otherwise, the ice cubes will not be crushed optimally.

Filling while in use

WARNING!
► If you want to add additional foods during operation, use only the measuring cap provided for this purpose. Do NOT open the lid.
► Do not insert cutlery items or mixing tools into the blender while the appliance is in use. There is a considerable risk of injury if these come into contact with the swiftly rotating cutting blades!

To add more food while the appliance is in use, …

  1. Remove the measuring cap from the lid.
  2. Add the ingredients.
  3. Press the measuring cap back into the lid.

Removing the blender
If you want to remove the blender from the motor block:

  1. Always start by setting the switch to the off position (“0”) and pulling out the mains plug.
  2. Wait until the motor has come to a complete standstill before lifting the blender off the motor block. Remove the blender from the motor block in a vertical, upward motion.

Cleaning
DANGER! ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Before starting to clean the blender and its components:
► Ensure that the motor is switched off and the power plug removed from the socket.
Do not immerse the motor block in water or other liquids. This could result in you receiving a fatal electric shock and causing damage to the appliance.
► Never open the housing of the appliance. Otherwise, there is a risk of a fatal electric shock.

WARNING! RISK OF INJURY!
► Handle the cutting blades with extreme caution. They are extremely sharp!
CAUTION! PROPERTY DAMAGE!
► Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners on the plastic surfaces, they could be damaged by them.
Cleaning the blender
■ To prevent injuring yourself on the cutting blades, clean the blender only with a long-handled washing-up brush.
■ Clean the measuring cap and the lid in a mild soap solution. You can remove the rubber seal to clean the blender lid by hand. Make sure that the rubber seal is correctly reattached before you use the lid again.

NOTE
You can also clean the lid together with the rubber seal, the measuring cap, and the blender attachment in the dishwasher along with the cutting blades. We recommend not removing the rubber seal when cleaning in the dishwasher, as it might otherwise deform. If possible, place the plastic parts in the upper basket of the dishwasher and make sure that they are not jammed. Otherwise, they could become misshapen or suffer from stress cracks.

  • If you clean the blender directly after use, you can often achieve a satisfactory and hygienic level of cleaning by doing the following: Fill the blender attachment with 750 ml of water and add a drop of washing-up liquid. Close the lid and fit the blender attachment onto the motor unit. Insert the mains plug into the socket and activate the pulse function a few times so that the cutting blades plow through the water at maximum speed. Afterward, rinse the blender attachment with plenty of clean water to remove any washing-up liquid residues.
  • Dry all parts thoroughly before reusing or storing them.
  • If this does not remove the dirt, you can remove the lower plastic part of the blender attachment with the cutting blades from the glass part of the blender:
  1. Remove the blender from the motor unit. For better stability, remove the lid by turning it anticlockwise towards position until you can pull it off upwards.
  2. Turn the appliance upside down and turn the plastic part of the blender anticlockwise so that it can be detached from the glass part of the blender attachment.
  3. Clean both parts in a mild soap solution or in the dishwasher.
  4. You can carefully remove the sealing ring from the plastic part if necessary. Clean in mild soapy water and rinse with clear water.
  5. Dry all parts thoroughly before reassembling them.
  6. If necessary, reinsert the sealing ring into the plastic part correctly. Then place the plastic part of the blender back on the glass part of the blender and turn the plastic part clockwise.

Cleaning the motor block

  • If necessary, clean the motor unit and its mains cable with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, apply a mild detergent to the cloth and wipe off with a cloth moistened only with water. Dry everything well afterward.
  • When cleaning, always check that the contact switch in the fitting for the blender is not blocked by soiling residues. If you cannot dislodge any blockages with the corner of a piece of paper, make contact with Customer Services. Do not use any hard objects, these could damage the contact switch.

Storage

  1. If you do not intend to use the blender for an extended period, clean it thoroughly (see chapter “Cleaning”).
  2. Wrap the power cable around the cable retainer on the base of the motor block.
  3. Store the blender in a cool and dry location.
