CAUTION:
Do not remove the lid of the glass jug during operation! Other-
wise, due to the high power of the motor, liquids and food will be hurled out vio-
lently, and liquids will run down at the exterior of the mixing jug. With hard ingre-
dients in the mixing jug, always keep a hand on the lid.
Note
If the rotating speed slows down visibly during operation or the motor stalls, there
may be too much food in the mixing jug, and/or there are too many too hard
ingredients blocking the knives (see: 'Electronic Overload Protection'). Switch off
the appliance at the selection dial and power switch and unplug. Remove any
obstacles. If required, take out some food and process your food in smaller por-
tions.
Tip: The appliance will process your food in seconds. It is better to intermediately
check the consistency of your food (after processing a few seconds) than to over-
process your food.
9. Switch the power switch at the rear of the motor base to the ON position ("I").
Then, keeping one hand on the lid of the mixing jug, turn the selection dial to the
desired speed level (see: 'Tips for Best Results'). The motor starts agitating at once.
If not, in most cases, the threads of the processing system are not assembled correct-
ly. Switch off the appliance again and grasp the blade assembly with both hands.
Check if the blade assembly can be turned clockwise a little more. Then try again.
Check, if the mixing jug can be turned onto the blade assembly a little bit tighter.
10. With the mixing system, you may add further ingredients by removing the ingre-
dients cup. You should switch off the appliance, first.
Note
Switch off the motor, before adding any further ingredients to avoid splashing.
Important: If you need to add some ingredients during operation, always use the
mixing system. Turn the selection dial to speed level 1 ("soft fruit"), then take out
the ingredients cup and slowly pour your ingredients into the opening in the lid.
Re-insert the ingredients cup, before increasing the speed.
11. After processing is done, turn the selection dial to the "OFF" position, switch off the
appliance at the power switch, wait until the motor stops, and unplug. Then remove
the processing system (see below: 'Removing the Mixing Jug after Operation'). Do
not leave the appliance unattended, when it is connected to the power supply.

12. Empty the mixing jug and rinse the removable parts immediately for avoiding
that residues of food dry on the surfaces. Thereafter, clean all parts (see: 'Clea-
ning the Mixing or Grinding System'').
Removing Obstacles from the Mixing Jug
If the motor abnormally and noticeably slows down or even stalls during operation
parts of food may be blocking the knives. To maintain a long-lasting working life of
the motor, remove the obstacles in time to avoid overload.
CAUTION:
Always switch "OFF" the appliance unplug and wait for the motor
to stop, before removing the lid of the mixing jug. Do not touch the knives with
your hands to avoid injuries. Do not use any hard or sharp-edged objects with the
appliance (e.g. metal cutlery). Do not use violence.
13. Turn the selection dial to "OFF", switch off the appliance at the power switch. Wait
until the motor stops agitating and unplug. Remove the lid of the mixing jug. By using
the provided plastic scraper or another wooden or plastic cooking utensil you may try
carefully to remove the obstacle. DO NOT use violence to avoid damage to the knives.
14. If your problem persists: remove the mixing jug from the motor base (see next
section). Take your food out of the mixing jug for removing the blockage.
15. Before re-assuming operation, cut hard ingredients to smaller pieces (max. 2cm)
and reduce the amount of food in the mixing jug by processing your food in smal-
ler portions. It could be helpful to process your food in short pulses—at least until
your food is cut to sufficiently small pieces by the knives of the blade assembly.
Removing the Mixing Jug after Operation
16. Ensure that the selection dial is turned to "OFF" and the power switch is switched
off. Wait until the motor stops. Then unplug the appliance.
CAUTION:
Always wait until the motor comes to a complete standstill, before
removing the mixing jug. DO NOT turn the processing system by the mixing jug
but always grasp the collar of the blade assembly. Otherwise, the connection of
glass jug and blade assembly may be loosened and your foodstuffs will run out.
17. Grasp the blade assembly by the collar and turn it counter-clockwise to unscrew
it from the motor base. Then remove the used system from the motor base.
18. Remove your food from the mixing jug and clean the used parts (see: 'Care and
Cleaning').
