Blender
The blender is intended for:
- Blending fluids, e.g. dairy products, sauces, fruit juices, soups, mixed
drinks, shakes.
- Mixing soft ingredients, e.g. pancake batter or mayonnaise.
- Pureeing cooked ingredients, e.g. for making baby food.
1 Place the blender jar on the motor unit (1) and turn it clockwise to
fix it (2). There are four possible positions to fix the blender onto
the motor unit (Fig. 28).
Do not exert too much pressure on the handle of the blender jar.
2 Put the ingredients in the blender jar (Fig. 29).
Never fill the blender jar with ingredients hotter than 80ºC.
To avoid spillage, never fill the jar above the maximum level indication,
particularly not when you blend hot liquids.
3 Place the lid on the blender jar (1) and turn it clockwise to fix it
(2) (Fig. 30).
4 Select the speed that corresponds with the colour of the
accessory (Fig. 12).
Never open the lid to put your hand or any object in the jar while the
blender is running.
Always let the appliance cool down to room temperature after you
have processed two batches.
5 When you have finished processing, turn the speed selector to 0
and unplug the appliance (Fig. 4).
Tips
- While the appliance is running, you can put liquid or solid ingredients
in the blender jar through the opening in the lid (Fig. 31).
- The longer you let the appliance run, the finer the blending result will
be.

- Pre-cut solid ingredients into smaller pieces before you put them in
the blender jar. If you want to prepare a large quantity, process small
batches of ingredients instead of a large quantity at once.
- To crush ice cubes, put the cubes in the jar, close the lid and turn the
speed selector to P (pulse position).
- Some ingredients, e.g. fruits, are easier to blend if you add some liquid
e.g. lemon juice.
- When you blend soup, use cooked ingredients.
- If you are not satisfied with the results, let the appliance run briefly a
number of times by turning the speed selector to P (pulse position).
You can also try to get a better result by stirring the ingredients with
a spatula (not while the blender is running), or by pouring out some
of the contents in order to process a smaller amount.
- When you process a liquid that is hot or tends to foam (e.g. milk), do
not put more than 500ml in the blender jar to avoid spillage.
- If food sticks to the wall of the blender jar, switch off the appliance
and unplug it. Then use a spatula to remove the food from the wall.
Cleaning
1 Switch off the appliance and remove the mains plug from the wall
socket.
2 Clean the motor unit with a moist cloth.
Never immerse the motor unit in water nor rinse it under the tap.
3 Clean the parts that have come into contact with food in hot water
with some washing-up liquid immediately after use.
Clean the blade unit of the food processor, the blade unit of the
blender and the inserts very carefully. The cutting edges are very sharp.
Note: All parts, except the motor unit, can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.
- Make sure that the cutting edges of the blades and the inserts do not
come into contact with hard objects. This could cause them to
become blunt.
