-The knife blade is very sharp, take care when handling.

-When chopping meat remove any bones and cut into 2cm

(3/4 in) cubes.

1Fit the non-slip foot onto the bottom of the bowl.

2Fit the knife blade over the pin in the bowl (3). Always fit the knife blade before adding ingredients.

Hints

-Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping meat, cheese, vegetables, herbs, nuts, dips and to also make crumbs from bread and biscuits. The attachment is not suitable for making bread dough.

-Pastry making - use butter straight from the fridge cut into 2cm/ 1 ⁄ 2 in cubes and process until the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs. Add the water down the feed tube and stop mixing as soon as the mixture starts to stick together.

-Take care not to overprocess.

-When adding almond extract or flavoring to mixtures avoid contact with the plastic as this may result in permanent marking.

To use the slicing/shredding disc (page 3)

-Never remove the lid until the cutting disc has completely stopped.

-Handle the cutting disc with care as it is extremely sharp.

1 Place the non-slip foot onto the bottom of the bowl. 2 Place the drive shaft over the pin in the bowl (6).

3Holding by the center grip, place the disc onto the drive shaft with the appropriate side uppermost (7).

4Fit the lid and push down to lock in place (8).

5Fit the power handle and push to lock in place. The power handle can be fitted with the ON/OFF button either facing inwards or outwards.

6Choose which size feed tube you want to use. The pusher contains a smaller feed tube for processing individual items or thin ingredients.

To use the smaller feed tube - first put the large pusher inside the feed tube.

To use the large feed tube - use both pushers together.

7Put the food into the feed tube.

8Select a speed, switch on and push down evenly with the pusher – never put your fingers in the feed tube.

9After use, unplug and dismantle. To remove the lid pull both locking clips out together and lift (9).

Hints

-Use the shredding side for carrots, potatoes and foods of a similar texture.

-Use the slicing side for food items such as carrots, potatoes, cabbage, cucumber, courgette and onions.

-Use fresh ingredients.

-Don’t cut food too small. Fill the width of the feed tube fairly full. This prevents the food from slipping sideways during processing. Alternatively use the small feed tube.

-Food placed upright comes out shorter than food placed horizontally.

-There will always be a small amount of waste left on the disc or in the bowl after processing.

To use the whisk (page 3)

-You can whip light ingredients such as egg whites; cream; instant desserts; and eggs and sugar for sponge cakes.

-Don’t whisk heavier mixtures such as margarine and sugar - you’ll damage the whisk.

2Fit the power handle inside the whisk collar. Push to lock.

3Place your food in a bowl.

-Don’t whisk more than 4 egg whites or 400ml (3 ⁄ 4pt) cream.

4Plug in. To avoid splashing, start on speed 1. Move the whisk clockwise.

-Don’t let liquid get above the whisk wires.

5 After use, unplug and dismantle.

To use the soup blender (page 3)

-Use the soup blender to quickly process soups etc., directly in the saucepan.

-For safest use it is recommended to take the pan off the heat and let hot liquids cool to room temperature before blending.
