instructions

Read the instructions and keep them safe. If you pass the blender on, pass on the

instructions too. Remove all packaging, but keep it till you know the blender works.

important safeguards

Follow basic safety precautions, including:

1 This blender must only be used by a responsible adult. Use and store the blender

out of reach of children.

2 Don’t put the motor unit in liquid, don’t use it in a bathroom, near water, or

outdoors.

3 Unplug before dismantling or cleaning.

4 The blender is ﬁtted with a safety switch to prevent the motor operating unless the

jug is in place. Don’t use this to switch the blender on and oﬀ.

5 Switch oﬀ (Y) before ﬁtting the jug to the motor unit.

6 Switch oﬀ (Y) and wait till the blades come to a complete stop before removing the

lid from the jug, and before removing the jug from the motor unit.

7 Don’t use the blender unless the lid is in place.

8 Don’t ﬁll with anything hotter than you can comfortably handle (i.e. liquid

temperature below 40°C).

9 When blending hot liquids, put a hand on the lid to hold it in place.

10 Don’t put your hand into the jug, even when it’s been removed for

cleaning – the blades are sharp.

11 Take great care when handling the blade unit.

12 Don’t put any other object (spoon, spatula, etc.) into the jug while the blender is

plugged in.

13 Don’t leave the blender unattended while plugged in.

14 Sit the motor unit on a dry, ﬁrm, level surface, close to a power socket and out of

reach of children.

15 Route the cable so it doesn’t overhang, and can’t be tripped over or caught.

16 Keep the blender and the cable away from hotplates, hobs or burners.

17 Don’t let the jug overﬂow. If liquid gets under the motor unit, it may be sucked into

the motor, damaging it.

18 Don’t ﬁll the jug above the 1250ml mark – if you do, the contents may force the lid

oﬀ when you start the motor.

19 Don’t run the motor for more than 3 minutes, or it may overheat. After 3 minutes,

switch oﬀ for at least 3 minutes, to let the motor cool.

20 Don’t use the blender for any purpose other than those described in these

instructions.

21 Don’t run the blender empty, it may overheat.

22 Don’t use the blender if it’s damaged or malfunctions.

23 If the cable is damaged, return the blender, in order to avoid hazard.

household use only

before using for the ﬁrst time

Turn to “care and maintenance” on page 5 and clean the blender, to remove any

manufacturing residues, dust, etc.

preparation

1 Sit the motor unit on a dry, ﬁrm, level surface, close to a power socket and out of

reach of children.

2 Route the cable so it doesn’t overhang, and can’t be tripped over or caught.

3 Align the arrow don the jug base with the open padlock Uon top of the motor

unit, lower the jug on to the motor unit, then turn the jug to bring the arrow dover

the closed padlock Lon top of the motor unit.

4 Pull the lid up and oﬀ the jug – it’s stiﬀ, because of the seal.

5 Put the ingredients into the jug. Don’t ﬁll it past the 1250ml mark. If you do, the

contents may force the lid oﬀ when you start the motor.

ﬁtting the lid

6 Don’t use the blender without ﬁtting the lid. The contents may escape; you may hurt

someone; you may be tempted to put a hand into the jug.

7 Put the lid on the jug, and push it down to seal it.

8 Align the pips on the sides of the cap with the slots in the hole in the lid, put the cap

into the hole, and turn anti-clockwise to lock it.

9 Don’t run the blender without the cap, solid ingredients may be ejected through the

hole when they hit the blades.

power up

10 Check that the speed control is set to Y.

11 Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if its switchable).

speed control

12 Turn the speed control clockwise to the speed you want. The range is from 1 (low) to

12 (high).

13 Turn the speed control back to Yto turn the motor oﬀ.

14 You’ll no doubt have your own preferences, but, generally, use lower speeds for

lighter applications (e.g. using mainly liquid ingredients), and higher speeds for

heavier applications (e.g. using mainly solid ingredients).

15 Turning the speed control anti-clockwise to fwill give you a short burst at high

speed. In this direction, the knob is spring-loaded. When you let go, it’ll return to Y.

16 Use the ffunction to crush ice, and as a “pulse” function.

17 Don’t run the motor continuously for more than 3 minutes, it may overheat. After 3

minutes switch oﬀ for at least 3 minutes, to recover.

turbo button Y

18 Pressing the turbo button will over-ride the speed set by the speed control, and give

you a burst of high speed, if you come across a dense area in the mixture, or if you

want to liven it up a bit.

19 The turbo button Yonly works when the motor is already running (i.e. at speed 1 or

above).

adding ingredients

20 To add ingredients while the blender is working, turn the cap clockwise to unlock it,

lift it oﬀ, pour the new ingredients through the hole, then replace the cap, and turn

it anti-clockwise to lock it in place.

21 Check that the added ingredients don’t push the volume in the jug past 1250ml.

ﬁnished?

22 Turn the speed control to Y, and wait till the blades stop moving before removing

the lid from the jug, or removing the jug from the motor unit.

hot liquids

23 At higher temperatures, the lid may soften enough to lose its seal, allowing the

contents of the jug to escape, so, when using hot liquids:

a) before pouring into the blender, let the liquid cool down to the sort of

temperature you can handle comfortably (i.e. liquid temperature below 40°C)

b) put a hand on the lid, to hold it in place while blending

c) if the lid is too hot for comfort, remove it and let the liquid cool down further –

replace the lid before blending

crushing ice f

24 Before using the blender to crush ice, make sure it’s clean, and rinse it out

thoroughly. The slightest trace of detergent may aﬀect the taste of the crushed ice,

and will ﬂatten any drink to which it is added.

25 Ice “cubes” come in many shapes and sizes. You’ll have to experiment with the ice

from your ice cube tray.

26 Start with half to threequarters of a cup of ice, or 4 to 6 cubes, and add 15ml (1

tablespoon) of fresh cold water.

27 Put the lid on the blender, then:

a) turn the speed control to ffor a second or two, then release it

b) check the state of the ice

c) repeat till the ice is the consistency that you need

28 Take care – too much blending will reduce the ice to liquid, too little will merely chip

the edges/corners oﬀ the ice.

29 Don’t try to crush ice without adding water to the jug.

30Don’t be tempted simply to increase the amount of ice and blend for longer. This

won’t work. Too much ice will never give you satisfactory results.

pulse f

31 You may also use the ffunction to “pulse” the motor, for more precise control over

ingredients other than ice. Use it the same way you would use it to crush ice – pulse,

check, pulse, check, till you achieve the result you want.

care and maintenance

1 Switch oﬀ (Y) and unplug before cleaning.

2 Clean as soon after use as possible, to prevent residues setting inside the jug.

3 Turn the jug, to move the arrow don the bottom of the jug base from the closed

padlock L, to the open padlock U, and lift the jug oﬀ the motor unit.

4 Wash the jug, lid and cap in warm soapy water, rinse well, then leave the jug to drain

and air dry.

caution Keep your hands away from the blades – they’re sharp. Use a brush

to clean them.

5 If you’ve left it too long before cleaning, and bits have glued themselves to the

inside of the jug, use a nylon brush. If that doesn’t work, crush some ice cubes in it –

that’ll shift anything.

6 We don’t recommend using a dishwasher. The extreme environment inside the

dishwasher can aﬀect the surface ﬁnishes.

7 Wipe the outside of the motor unit with a clean damp cloth.

8 Don’t put the motor unit in water or any other liquid.

9 Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.

blade unit

10 You may remove the blade unit for cleaning.

11 Handle only the plastic – don’t touch the metal parts of the blade unit.

12 This is best done with the jug turned upside down.

13 Grip the jug handle with one hand.

14 Grip the bottom of the blade unit with the other hand.

15 Turn the blade unit clockwise till it comes loose from the jug base.

16 Carefully, pull it up and out of the bottom of the jug.

17 It’s a close ﬁt, so you may have to move it around a bit, to get it out of the jug.

18 Slip the end of a dinner knife under the edge of the seal, and lift the seal away from

the blade unit.

19 Wash the seal and blade unit in warm soapy water, rinse, and air dry.

20 Replace the seal round the blade unit.

21 Turn the blade unit upside down, and replace it in the bottom of the jug base.

22 Turn the blade unit anti-clockwise to tighten it.

a few simple recipes to get you started

coriander pesto (dip, topping or sauce)

4 handfuls fresh leaf coriander

4 cloves fresh garlic

120g pine nuts

250ml olive oil

120g freshly grated Parmesan

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Put the coriander, garlic, pine nuts, and a bit more than half the oil into the jug. Fit the

lid, and blend till it looks smooth. To adjust the thickness, add a little oil and give it a

short pulse (f). Repeat till the consistency looks right, then transfer to a bowl, taste,

and adjust the seasoning. Serve as a dip (fairly thick), as a topping for soup (not too

thick, but not runny), or tossed through warm pasta (fairly runny).

sweet and sour sauce

4 shallots, peeled

a small piece of fresh ginger, peeled

2 cloves fresh garlic

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tsp mustard

2 tsp tomato purée

a dash of white wine vinegar

Put everything into the jug, then ﬁt the lid and blend till smooth. Serve with chicken or

ﬁsh, or as a dip.

black olive and anchovy tapenade/sauce

250g pitted black olives

60g anchovy ﬁllets, drained

3 tbsp capers, drained

150ml olive oil

2 tbsp brandy (optional)

fresh ground black pepper

Put everything but the oil into the jug. Fit the lid, remove the cap, and add about half

the oil. Replace the cap and blend for a couple of seconds. Examine the result, then

adjust the oil and blend till you achieve the consistency you need. For a tapenade, to

spread on toast, you need a paste. For a sauce, to toss through warm pasta, it should

be fairly runny.

horseradish and apple sauce

250ml double cream

2 sharp ﬂavoured apple, peeled and grated

6 tbsp horseradish relish

2 tsp paprika

Put the cream into the jug and blend till soft peaks form, then spoon gently into a large

bowl and gently fold in the rest of the ingredients (“gently” means don’t knock the air

out of the cream or it’ll collapse). Season with fresh ground black pepper, and serve

with beef or sausage.

leek & potato soup (serves 4)

150g leeks, trimmed

150g potatoes, peeled

2 vegetable or chicken stock cubes

800ml water

salt and pepper to taste

Blend the leeks and potatoes for a couple of seconds (lumpy, not mushy). Put the leek

and potato mixture into a pan, then add the water and stock cubes. Bring to the boil,

stirring, reduce the heat, cover the pan and simmer for 20 minutes. Let the mixture cool

for about 30 minutes, then blend in two lots, at maximum speed, till it’s really smooth.

Return the mixture to the pan and heat it through (don’t let it boil). Taste, adjust the

seasoning, and serve with crusty bread.

mango lassi (a rich mango smoothie)

200ml natural yogurt

1 ripe mango

200ml milk

2 tsp honey

10 ice cubes

Stone, peel and roughly chop the mango. Put everything into the jug, ice cubes last.

Run at speed 5 for 10 seconds, then at 12 for 5 seconds.
