IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, especially when children are
present, basic safety precautions should always be taken, including
the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts and before cleaning. To unplug, grasp plug
and pull from electrical outlet. Never pull cord.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not put the motor body,
cord or electrical plug of this hand blender in water or other
liquids. Only the detachable blending shaft and certain other
parts of this appliance have been designed for immersion into
water or other liquids. Never submerge any other portion of this
unit. If hand blender falls into liquid, immediately unplug it.
Carefully remove the blending shaft, clean and dry unit thoroughly
before continuing.
4. This appliance should not be used by children and care should
be taken when used near children.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. During operation keep hands, hair and clothing, as well as
spatulas and other utensils, away from attachments and any
mixing container to reduce risk of injury to persons and/or
damage to the appliance. A spatula may be used, but must be
used only when the unit is not operating.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug,
or after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped
or damaged in any way or is not operating properly. Return the
appliance to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center for examination,
repair, or mechanical or electrical adjustment.
8. Remove detachable shaft from the blender before washing the
blades or shaft.
9. Blades are SHARP. Handle carefully when removing,
inserting or cleaning.
10. When mixing liquids, especially hot liquids, use a tall container
or blend small quantities at a time to reduce spillage, splattering
and the possibility of injury from burning.
11. The use of attachments or accessories not recommended by
Cuisinart may cause fire, electric shock, or risk of injury.
12. Do not use outdoors or for purposes other than it's intended
use.
13. Do not let any cord hang over the edge of the table or counter.
Do not let cord come in contact with hot surfaces, including
stovetop.

3
14. Make sure the appliance is off, the motor has stopped
completely and the appliance is unplugged from outlet before
putting on or taking off attachments, and before cleaning.
15. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or
under a wall cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage
always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing
so could create a risk of fire, especially if the appliance
touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit
as it closes.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

OPERATION
BLENDING
The specially designed blade is for mixing and puréeing all kinds of
foods, including salad dressings, powdered drink products, soups and
sauces, and blended drinks like milkshakes or smoothies.
This blade mixes and stirs while adding only a minimum of air to your
mixture. A gentle up-and-down motion is all you need to make the
most flavorful, full-bodied recipes. Be careful never to remove the
blending shaft from the liquid while in operation, for it will splatter.
Tilt the pan or bowl away from you if needed to ensure the protective
blade guard on the blending shaft is fully submerged.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
HAND BLENDER
Always clean the motor body and blending shaft thoroughly after
using. Remove the blending shaft from the motor body. Clean the
motor body only with a sponge or damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleaners that could scratch the surface. To clean the blending shaft,
wash by hand in hot water using mild detergent, or on top shelf of
dishwasher. Be mindful of the fixed razor-sharp blade edges.
WHISK ATTACHMENT
To clean your whisk attachment, simply release the attachment
from the motor body housing. Once the whisk is removed, detach
the metal whisk from the gearbox by pulling the pieces apart.
To clean the gearbox, simply wipe with a damp cloth. To clean the
metal whisk, wash with warm, soapy water or clean on top shelf of
the dishwasher. Do not submerge the gearbox in water or any other
liquid.
POTATO MASHER ATTACHMENT
Release the potato masher attachment from the housing body. To simplify
cleaning, rinse the potato masher attachment immediately after use so
food does not dry on it. Press the inner blade back into the unit and turn
clockwise to release inner blade. Wash with warm, soapy water and a soft
bristle brush if necessary, or clean on top rack of dishwasher. Do not use
any sharp, metal objects. Dry thoroughly. To reassemble, see the
assembly instructions on page 6.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service
representative.
TIPS AND HINTS
FOR HAND BLENDER
• Be sure that the blending blade guard is fully submerged before
blending ingredients to prevent splatter.
• To purée a soup, use the hand blender to blend the soup ingredients
to the desired consistency, using a gentle up-and-down motion right
in the saucepan or pot.
• When blending ingredients right in a pot or pan, tilt the pan away
from you to create a deeper area for blending to prevent splatter.

9
• When using a nonstick cooking surface, be careful not to scratch
the coating with the hand blender.
• When blending into the blending beaker, for example when making
a fruit smoothie, cut most solid foods into ½ –1 inch pieces for easy
blending.
• Use the hand blender to make smooth gravies and pan sauces.
• Do not immerse motor body housing in water or any other liquids.
• When blending in the blending beaker, pour liquid ingredients in
first, unless recipe instructs otherwise.
• The hand blender is perfect for frothing milk for cappuccino or
lattés. Just warm milk in a small saucepan, and then pulse the hand
blender gently, being sure to keep the blending blade guard fully
submerged.
• Do not let hand blender stand in a hot pot on stove while not in use.
• Do not attempt to blend fruit pits, bones, or other hard materials as
these are liable to damage the blades.
• Do not fill mixing containers too full. The level of mixture will rise
when blending and can overflow.
• To whip air into a mixture, always hold the blade just under the
surface.
• Using a gentle up-and-down motions is the best way to blend and
incorporate ingredients uniformly.
• Liquid should not come closer than 1-inch of where the shaft
attaches to the motor housing.
• Use Low speed for gentle blending such as dressings and milkshakes.
• When puréeing soups, use Medium to first break up large, already
tender ingredients. Then gradually increase speed to High to make soup
very smooth.
• Use High speed for quick, powerful blending like smoothies
FOR POTATO MASHER
• When using the potato masher, it is best to use Low speed for
potatoes, which are starchy and should not be overworked. The High
speed can be used for other root vegetables like turnips and sweet
potatoes.
• To achieve a smoother and thicker root vegetable mash, add in 1 or
2 potatoes.
• The less you process potatoes the better. Mashing each section, by
using just 1 or 2 up and down motion, works best.
• Mash ingredients when they are hot—they will mash better and
more easily.
• Mash vegetables first, then add in the other ingredients, such as
milk, butter and seasonings.

10
FOR WHISK ATTACHMENT
• Do not immerse whisk attachment gearbox in water or any other liquids.
• Use the whisk attachment for whipping heavy cream or egg whites.
• When whipping egg whites, use a very clean metal or glass bowl, never
plastic. Plastic can contain hidden oils and fats that can ruin the delicate
egg white foam. To help stabilize the egg whites, add
1
/
8
teaspoon of
cream of tartar per egg white prior to whipping them.
(If using a copper bowl, omit the cream of tartar.) Whip the egg whites
until desired peaks form.
• Whipping egg whites for too long causes them to dry out and become
less stable.
• When adding sugar to whipped egg whites, add it slowly when soft
peaks just begin to form and then continue beating to form desired
peaks.
• When whipping heavy cream, if possible and time allows, use a chilled
bowl and chill the whisk attachment. The best shaped bowl for whipping
cream is one that is deep with a rounded bottom to minimize any
splatter.
• The cream should come out of the refrigerator just before whipping.
Whipped cream may be used at either soft or firm peaks, depending on
preference. It may be flavored as desired. For best results, whip cream
just before using.
• The whisk attachment may also be used for any task that you would
normally whisk by hand, like crêpe batters or eggs for omelets.
