Notes
•Your Accents Hand Blender is not suitable for grinding coffee beans.
•When chopping meat, ensure that all the bones have been removed before adding to the Chopping Bowl.
Top tips
•When blending foods with strong colour (eg. carrots), the plastic parts of the appliance may become discoloured. Wipe with cooking oil to clean any discoloured parts.
•For blending and chopping, select a slow speed for soft ingredients, increase the speed to produce the consistency required.
•Select a high speed for chopping or blending hard ingredients.
•When using the Blending Leg (6), start the process by plunging the blender into the ingredients. This will ensure all the ingredients are pulled into the blade to be processed. Continue this movement until the mixture is to the desired consistency.
•Do not lift the Blending Leg out of the mixture completely when running, as splashing may occur.
•The Chopping Bowl (10) is not suitable for grinding coffee beans.
