How to Use the Appliance
Smartspeed Switch for
Variable Speeds
One squeeze, all speeds. The more you press, the
higher the speed. The higher the speed, the faster
and finer the blending and chopping results.
One handed operation: the Smartspeed switch (3)
allows you to turn on the appliance and control the
speed with one hand.
Operating your Hand Blender
First use: Remove the transportation lock from the
motor part (4) by pulling it at the red strap.
Switching On (A)
The appliance comes with an imode selector (1) and
a safety button (2) for releasing the Smartspeed
switch (3). Please follow the instruction to start the
appliance:
• By pressing the silver part of the top you can
choose one of the 3 different imodes (high
speed, low speed, pulse).
• With the help of the 3 modes you can decide how
to process the food. The indicator light glows
white to show the chosen mode.
• High speed (1a) gives you the full speed
available. It is the standard position of the
mode.
• Low speed (1b) decreases the speed even if you
press the Smartspeed switch fully.
• The pulse mode (1c) can be used to break apart
larger pieces of food or to control the texture of
food when chopping. Press the Smartspeed
switch for short bursts of power.
• After choosing the mode, press the safety button
(2) with your thumb.
• Immediately press the Smartspeed switch and
adjust to the desired speed.
NOTE: If the Smartspeed switch is not pressed
within 2 seconds, the appliance cannot be
switched on for safety reasons. The safety button
light will flash red. To switch the appliance on,

ActiveBlade Shaft (B)
The hand blender is equipped with an ActiveBlade
shaft, which enables the knife extend to the bottom
of the bell. The adjustment is made automatically by
pressure required in blending tasks, especially
suited to mix hard foods e.g. raw fruits and
vegetables.
It is also perfectly suited for preparing dips, sauces,
salad dressings, soups, baby food, as well as
drinks, smoothies and milkshakes.
For best results, use the highest speed.
Assembly and Operation
• Attach the ActiveBlade shaft (6) to the motor part
until it clicks.
• Place the ActiveBlade shaft into the mixture to be
blended. Then switch the appliance on as
described above.
• Blend ingredients to the desired consistency
using a gentle up-and-down motion.
Depending on the pressure applied, the
ActiveBlade shaft will depress and blade will
extend.
• After use, unplug the hand blender and press the
EasyClick Plus release buttons (5) to detach the
ActiveBlade shaft.
Caution
• Do not let liquids or ingredients overlap the green
line of the ActiveBlade shaft.
• If using the appliance to purée hot food in a
saucepan or pot, remove the saucepan or pot
from the heat source and ensure the liquid is not
boiling. Allow hot food to cool slightly to avoid
risk of scalding.
• Do not let the hand blender sit in a hot pan on the
cooktop when not in use.
• Do not scratch the ActiveBlade shaft over the
bottom of pans and pots.
• Do not operate continuously for longer than
2 minutes.
• Let the appliance cool down for 5 minutes before
you continue processing.
