– Level 1 - 3
for fluid or soft foodstuffs, for mixing, blending
and stirring
– Level 3 - 5
for firmer foodstuffs or for hacking
– Level Ice Crush/Clean
for short, powerful impulse operation, e.g. for
crushing icecubes or when cleaning. So as not
to overburden the motor, the switch
t does not
engage in this position. Hence, hold the switch t
in this position for short periods only.
Note
Fill the mixer jug e with a maximum of 180 g of
ice cubes. If filled with more than this, the appliance
cannot optimally crush them.
Filling when in use
Warning!
Should you wish to insert further foodstuffs during
operation, you may ONLY open the filling cap
q
provided for this purpose.
• Under no circumstance should you open the co-
ver w . Pieces of the foodstuff could be thrown
out at high speeds!
• Do not insert cutlery items or mixing tools into
the mixer jug e when the apliance is in use.
There is a considerable risk of injury should these
make contact with the swiftly rotating cutters
r !
To insert something when the appliance is in
operation, ...
➩
turn the filling cap q anti-clockwise and remove it.
➩
Fill in the ingredients.
➩
Afterwards, replace the filling cap q into the lid
and secure it by turning it clockwise.
Removing the mixer
When the processing of the foodstuffs is complete:
➩
Always first place the switch t into the OFF
position ("OFF") and remove the power plug.
➩
Wait until the motor has come to a complete
standstill before lifting the mixer jug
e straight
up. The mixer jug e does not need to be turned.
Useful tips
– The best results when blending firm ingredients
are achieved by placing small portions one after
the other into the mixer jug
e instead of inser-
ting a single large portion.
– When processing firm ingredients, cut them into
small pieces (2-3 cm).
– When mixing liquid ingredients begin first of all
with a small measure of fluids. Gradually add
more fluids to the mixture through the filling cap.
– The appliance can be stabilised by placing your
hand on top of the closed liquidiser during ope-
ration.
– For the stirring of firm or very viscous foodstuffs
it can be beneficial to use the impulse-operation,
which helps avoid a blocking of the cutters
r .
Note
Do not use the appliance to crush grains of cooking
salt, refined sugar or white sugar. For example, to
make powdered sugar.
