Disassembling the appliance

WARNING: The blades of the cutting tools are very sharp. Handle with care!

Always ensure that the appliance and any parts of it are out of reach of

young children.
Do not use violence!
Bowl and lid are locked on the motor base for operation. Thus you

must unlock these parts by turning them counter-clockwise before you can remove them.

Additionally, the large chopping blades and emulsifying disc are firmly locked for operation

via nozzles on the spindle.
Remainder of food and liquids could drop from the parts of the appliance, when disassem-

bling. Ensure that no liquids drip on the motor base, or any other delicate objects. Always

remove the bowl from the motor base first, and place it on a stable and water-resistant

surface, before opening the lid.
1. Switch OFF the ON/OFF switch (indicator goes out), wait until the motor comes to com-

plete standstill, and unplug the appliance from power outlet.
2. Remove the pusher.
CAUTION: Ensure that you do not spill the contents of the bowl, when removing it from the

motor base. Keep the bowl level.
3. Grasp the bowl at its handle and turn it counter-clockwise as far as it goes to release the

safety interlock. Then, keeping the bowl level, lift it from the motor base.
4. Place the bowl on a level, stable and water-resistant surface.
5. Turn the lid counter-clockwise as far as it goes to release the safety interlock. Then lift the

lid from the bowl.
WARNING: Do not touch the blades of the cutting tools. Only touch the cutting tools at the

black plastic parts. Do not use any hard or sharp-edged object with the appliance to avoid

damage to the surfaces.

6. Lift the tools out of the bowl: maybe small chopping blades and bowl, or cutting disc,

spindle, perhaps assembled with chopping blades or emulsifying disc.
7. Empty the bowl. For this, you can use a plastic or wooden spoon or the provided spatula.
8. If you used the emulsifying disc or chopping blades, remove these tools from the spindle.

However, do not use violence! These tools are locked on the spindle via two notches.

Grasp the tool at the central plastic body. Then, using forefinger and thumb, push in the two

notches on the spindle and simultaneously slip the tool over the notches. Thereafter, you can

separate spindle and tool completely.
9. Clean all used parts and accessories, as described below.

Cleaning the appliance

WARNING: The blades of the cutting tools are very sharp. Handle with care to avoid

ve chemicals (e.g. bleach) for cleaning the appliance or any parts of it, to avoid damage to

the surfaces. Do not immerse the motor base or power cord in water or any other liquid. Do
