Using the appliance

1 Put the ingredients in the blender jar.
2 Place the lid on the jar and turn it in the direction of the arrow until it locks into position
with a click (fig. 4).
Disassemble the lid and the jar by turning them in the opposite direction.
The lid has two positions:
one for preparing recipes that require use of a sieve ('sieve position') (fig. 5).
... and one for preparing recipes that do not require use of a sieve ('closed position' ) (fig. 6).
3 Switch the appliance on by pressing I (fig. 7).
4 Switch the appliance off by pressing 0 (fig. 8).
5 Do not let the appliance run for more than 4 minutes at a time.
If you have not finished processing after 4 minutes, switch the appliance off for one minute before
you let it run again.
6 If you are not satisfied with the result:
- switch the appliance on and off a few times, or
- switch the appliance off and stir the ingredients with a spatula, or
- switch the appliance off and pour out some of the contents of the jar and process a smaller
amount, or add more liquid and continue processing.
Tips
Liquid ingredients (e.g. oil to prepare mayonnaise) can be poured into the blender jar through
the opening in the lid while the appliance is running (fig. 9).
If you let the blender run longer, the results will generally be finer. Do not let the blender run
for more than 4 minutes at a time when processing a liquid and 1 minute when processing
dry ingredients.
Cut solid ingredients (e.g. meat) into smaller pieces before putting them in the blender jar.
Do not process a large quantity of solid ingredients at the same time. Process these
ingredients in a series of small batches instead.
To crush ice cubes, drop them through the opening in the lid onto the rotating blades.
To make tomato juice, cut the tomatoes in four and drop the pieces through the opening in
the lid onto the rotating blades.
