Chopping, kneading, mixing or puréeing
Required Tools:
Bowl, short shaft, - universal ‘s’ blade (chopping, pu-
réeing, mixing, and kneading solid food) - lid with feed
chute including pusher
Operating functions, buttons:
Continuous operation or in short bursts, ON/OFF button
or PULSE button
Maximum filling level:
Depending on the type of processed food
Minimum amount:
Cover the lower blade
Usual operating time:
A few seconds up to 2-3 minutes
Typical way of operation:
Directly filling the bowl while motor is idle; keeping feed
tube closed with pusher during operation
WARNING: The knives of the universal ‘s’ blade are very sharp. Handle with
care! Only grasp the universal ‘s’ blade by the black plastic body.
Immediately wipe off spilled liquids. When liquids come out from under the lid, run down
at the exterior of the appliance and/or accumulate under the appliance, immediately
unplug the appliance to avoid injuries and damage caused by electricity. Clean and dry the
appliance, according to the instructions in section Care and Cleaning. Do not overfill the
bowl. For working with the universal ‘s’ blade, do not fill in more than the maximum amounts
given in the table below. This holds especially for processing liquids or very runny food (e.g.
light batter). In these cases, it is best to use the PULSE button in short bursts. If again liquids
accumulate under the appliance, then possibly the bowl is leaking. Get in contact with an
authorized service centre for examination and repair.
Some useful hints for working with the universal ‘s’ blade
Always remove the bowl from the motor base, before changing the tools or taking food out
of the bowl. This way, you avoid spilling food on / in the motor base. For this, unlock the
bowl (turn counter-clockwise as far as it goes), and then hold the bowl level while lifting it up.
The universal ‘s’ blade may only be assembled in one orientation with the somewhat wider
opening facing downwards. Otherwise, you can not push down the tools to the bottom of
the bowl and it is quite difficulty to remove the tools from the shaft thereafter.
For chopping, mincing, puréeing and mixing of solid ingredients or heavy mixtures (e.g.
dough), it is best to use the universal ‘s’ blade.
