When making mayonnaise, put all the ingredients, except the oil into the liquidiser. Then with the machine running, pour the oil into the filler cap and let it run through.

Thick mixtures, eg pates and dips, may need scraping down. If it’s difficult to process, add more liquid.

When crushing ice use the pulse in short bursts.

To ensure the long life of your liquidiser, never run it for longer than 60 seconds. Switch off as soon as you’ve got the right consistency.

Don’t process spices - they may damage the plastic.

The machine won’t work if the liquidiser is fitted incorrectly.

Don’t put dry ingredients into the liquidiser before switching on. If necessary, cut them into pieces; remove the filler cap; then with the machine running, drop them through one by one.

Don’t use the liquidiser as a storage container. Keep it empty before and after use.

Never blend more than 112 litres (2pts 12floz) - less for frothy liquids like milkshakes.

using the attachments

knife blade/ dough tool

The knife blade is the most versatile of all the attachments. The length of the processing time will determine the texture achieved. For coarser textures use the pulse control.

Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping raw and cooked meat, vegetables, nuts, pate, dips, pureeing soups and to also make crumbs from biscuits and bread. It can also be used for yeasted dough mixes if the dough tool is not supplied.

Use the dough tool for yeasted mixes.
