NOTE: Do not switch on the blender with only dry ingredients (e.g. nuts) in the
container, as this may damage the blender. Always add a little liquid before
switching on the blender.
Precautions when blending hot liquids
The glass jar can withstand hot ingredients as hot liquids or soups. When hot
liquids are poured into a sealed/closed container (like e.g. a blender jar with lid)
a high pressure is automatically created. There is a risk that the lid may be pushed
off when making hot soups or sauces. Hot liquid may squirt out due to the high
pressure building inside the jug. To avoid this situation, follow the advice below:
1. The temperature of the hot liquid used in the blender must not exceed 50 °C.
2. Fill the jug with the desired ingredients (e.g. vegetables, roots, etc.) to half
capacity at the max.
3. Activate the blender at speed level 1 or 2 (not Pulse). Then pour the liquid (hot
soup, cream, or similar) slowly through the hole in the black lid. Do not switch
off the blender while doing this. If the blender has been switched off anyway
during the process above, with the jug containing hot liquid, and the blender
has to be re-activated – then press and hold the lid (with a towel, kettle hold-
er, or similar), and bear in mind that hot liquid may squirt out.
Should the blender have been turned off during the above process with hot liq-
uieds in the jar, and should it be restarted, then hold a pressure on top of the lid
with your hand using a towel, oven glove or the like. Please be aware of possible
squirts of hot liquids. Hot liquids alone must not be used in the blender, since the
pressure with the jar will be too high.
Important!
When blending frozen ingredients (e.g. fruit, berries, vegetables), activate the
blender immediately after the ingredients have been filled into the glass jug.
Otherwise, these ingredients may freeze to a big lump which may block the
blades during use. Add a little water to the container before the unit is activated.
Additional ingredients can be added during use – just remember to switch off the
blender before removing stopper or lid. Make sure that the food being prepared
is not too viscous or too dry or heavy for the motor to process. E.g. add some
additional liquid through the hole in the lid if the food mixture seems heavy – or
switch off the blender and scrape the mixture towards the blades with a rubber
spatula.
REMEMBER THAT THE LID MUST ALWAYS BE ATTACHED BEFORE THE BLEND-
ER IS ACTIVATED. LIKEWISE, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE STOPPER IS AT-
TACHED AGAIN BEFORE RE-ACTIVATING THE BLENDER!!
