SETTINGS
There are 3 settings 1, 2 and M (pulse).
Setting 1 is low speed and is usually best for liquids or cooked vegetables.
Setting 2 is faster and is usually best when you want to add some air to the mixture e.g. milk
shakes etc.
The (M) pulse setting allows for more control over the blending/chopping process. There may
be occasions were you don’t want the food pieces to be chopped too finely this setting can also
be used for crushing ice.
NOTE: In pulse mode if you release the switch it will automatically spring back to the 0 (off)
position when released. It is only intended for short powerful bursts not continued use.
Cleaning

• Always ensure the unit is switched off & unplugged from the mains

All parts except the Motor Block (7) can be washed with warm soapy water, rinsed and dried
thoroughly. The glass jug (3/9) and lid (2) are also dishwasher-safe.

Useful Tips
1. To achieve best results when puréeing solid ingredients, place small portions into the glass jug
one at a time and blend between each portion, instead of placing a large quantity in the jug all at
once.
2. If you are processing solid ingredients, cut them into small pieces (2-3cm) first.
3. For solid or very thick liquid ingredients we recommend that you use the blender in (M) pulse
mode first to help break up the food.
