PRIOR TO FIRST USE
Each individual appliance is checked at the factory, but for safety’s sake, please check carefully after unpacking for damage during transport. Check for visible damage (e.g. cracks or scratches). If the appliance appears to have been damaged, contact the shop where you bought it, and do not use it until it has been checked by an authorised specialist.
Clean all parts that come in direct contact with food before using the appliance for the first time.
Fitting the blender shaft
Fit the blender shaft to the motor unit by inserting the spindle into the middle of the shaft, and into the socket on the motor unit. Carefully turn the shaft clockwise . To remove the shaft, turn it carefully anti clockwise.
Blending in the jug
Attach the blender shaft to the motor unit as described under Fitting the blender shaft. Place the food items to be blended into the jug (5). Hold the jug firmly with one hand. Place the blender shaft into the jug until it touches the food items and switch on by pressing one of the speed selection switches (1) and holding it down. The blender will run as long as you hold the button down.
NB: We recommend the blender does not run for more than 1 minute at a time when blending or chopping. Allow the appliance to cool for a little while before continuing.
