BEFORE THE FIRST USE
When unpacking the product and remo-
ving packing material, handle the blades
carefully; they are very sharp.
Wash all parts except the motor base in hot,
soapy water. Rinse them dry. Do not immerse the
supply cord part of this appliance in water or any
other liquids. Clean the glass jar thoroughly. Be
sure to read this manual, paying special attention
to the sections on “Use your steam blender” and
“Care and Cleaning” to learn the correct methods
for taking the unit apart and cleaning.

To use the blender function it is necessary to turn
the control knob to “0”, press the ‘on / off’ but-
ton and then turn the control knob to the desired
speed.

the Steam blender, position jar unit on the
motor base so that the arrow on the jar collar
is aligned to the arrow on the base. Push the
jar down into place.
Take care when placing the glass jar on
the motor base as incorrect positions

5. Unplug the appliance immediately after use.

Empty and clean thoroughly after use.
Do not overload the Steam blender. If the
motor stalls, turn the Steam blender off
immediately, unplug the unit and carefully re-

CARE AND CLEANING
Blade is very sharp Handle with care.
1. Always unplug the appliance from the mains
socket before cleaning.
2. Before rst use and after every use, clean
each part thoroughly.
3. To clean the anti-stick base we recommend
the use of the scrubbing brush which makes
it easy to clean underneath the blades.
4. To clean the glass jar lid and measuring cup,
wash in hot soapy water.
5. Wipe the motor base clean with a damp cloth
to remove any residue, and dry thoroughly.
6. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the housing
base. Apply any cleaning agent on the cloth,
not directly the base.
7. Make sure all the parts are clean and dry
before storing.
For a better cleaning of the valve is re-
commended, after use, the use of the
residual water in the tank for a rapid cycle of
about 3 minutes of steaming. Adding about 25
cl of citric acid or of vinegar, this operation
will also be useful to prevent the accumulation
of limescale.
DESCALING
Please follow these instructions every 15 cycles
of steam cooking:
1. Put 500ml of a solution of water and anti-
scale (proportions according to what is spe-
cied on anti-scale product’s packaging) into
the water tank.
Standard anti-scale products (e.g. for
coffee machines) are suitable.
the water tank lid is closed.
6. Press the ‘on/off’ button to put the unit into
‘stand-by’ mode.
7. Set the cooking time, by pushing + or - but-
tons. The cooking time can be changed at
any time during the cycle.
8. Press the Start/Stop button to start cooking.
9. When the cooking time has elapsed, the unit
will beep.
10. Turn control knob to blend the soup.
Due to unavoidable condensation, and
to natural amount of water contained in
any ingredients, in some situations to dischar-
ge a certain amount of liquid before blending
is recommended.
If you want to steam without the foods
come in contact with the condensation
water, you can use the basket (available on
certain models only).
The maximum ll for hot ingredients is
1400 ml.
When cooking or blending hot liquid it is
essential the glass jar lid and measuring
cup are left on the blender to prevent harm.
Blending Cold Ingredients
The blender can also be used as a regular blen-
der to blend cold ingredients and crush ice.
1. Place the motor base onto a at, sturdy sur-
face.
2. Position the Glass jar assembly on the base
and plug into a suitable mains socket.
3. Add all necessary ingredients into the glass
jar and put the lid. You may add more ingre-
dients during blending by removing the mea-
suring cup and dropping ingredients through
the opening in the lid. If adding more liquid,
we recommend pausing blending, adding
the liquid and replacing the measuring cup
to prevent liquid escaping.
The maximum ll for cold ingredients is
1750 ml.
4. Turn the control knob to your desired speed
or use the pulse function. Turn the control
knob to ‘Off’ when the desired consistency
is reached.
