Gastroback 40993 MIXMAX Multi-function mixer - Manual (Page 11)

When liquids are spilled on the motor housing, immediately unplug the appliance
and dry the motor housing to avoid risk of electric shock or fire. Do not attempt to
operate the appliance, when liquids are on or in the motor housing.
WARNING: If the blade is mounted in the glass container, the container is positioned on
the motorblock, and the plug is connected to the power outlet, do not insert your fingers, a
wooden or plastic spoon or similar cooking utensils or foreign substances in the glass
container. Always turn the appliance ´OFF` and wait for the motor to stop before
taking the container off the motorblock, removing the lid, checking the food, pushing
the food down with a spoon or filling in more ingredients. Use cutlery made of wood,
rubber or plastic only. Never use force when trying to push the food down or trying to
remove food that blocks the blade.
The MIXMAX Mixer can not replace all of your kitchen appliances. The mixer can not be
used for: mashing potatoes, beating the white of eggs, mincing meet, or juicing fruits. Also
it is not possible to use it for stirring very firm batter or dough or for chopping very hard
ingredients such as nuts with shell, bones or alike. IMPORTANT: Do not leave any food
dry on the surfaces of the appliance. Always clean the appliance right after use (see
´Care and Cleaning`).
Tips for operation
Fill liquid ingredients into the container first unless it is described different in the recipe.
Prepare your food before you fill it into the container. Do not overfill the container.
• Cut vegetables, fruit, cheese, cooked meat or fish in pieces of about 2 cm.
• Remove uneatable and hard parts of the food: stalks, skins and shells, seeds,
bones, gristle, and tendons.
IMPORTANT: Do not overload the motor with food that is oversized or too hard. Turn
the appliance ´OFF` as soon as the motor stalls or stucks to avoid overheating of the
motor (see ´Trouble shooting`). Process ingredients a few seconds only.
Permanently check on the consistency of the food in between the operation to avoid
getting food which is too fine and slushy.
Pick the speed for your needs: mixing (MIX 4-7) for permanent operation or
interval-switch (PULS 1-3).
