IMPORTANT: HOT BLENDING INSTRUCTIONS
To minimise the possibility of scalding when blending hot ingredients keep
hands and other exposed skin away from the lid to prevent possible burns.
The following precautions must be observed:
●CAUTION: Blendin very hot liquids may result in hot liquid
and steam bein forced suddenly past the lid or filler cap .
●We recommend that hot liquids are allowed to cool before
blendin .
●NEVER exceed 1200ml / 5 cups capacity if processing hot liquids, such as
soups (refer to the markings on the goblet).
●ALWAYS commence blending at a low speed and gradually increase the
speed. NEVER blend hot liquids by using the Pulse setting.
●Liquids which tend to foam such as milk, should be limited to a maximum
capacity of 1000ml/4 cups.
●Take care when handling the blender as the goblet and its contents will be
very hot.
●Take particular care when removing the lid. The lid is designed to be a tight
fit to prevent leakage. If necessary protect your hands with a cloth or oven
gloves when handling.
●Ensure the goblet is securely attached to the base and when removing from
the appliance, guide the base and ensure it is removed together with the
goblet.
●Ensure that the lid and filler cap are securely in place before every blending
operation.
●Always ensure that the vents in the filler cap are clear before every blending
operation .
●When fitting the lid to the goblet always ensure that the lid and goblet rim
are clean and dry to ensure a good seal and prevent spillage.

●Never use an unauthorised
attachment.
●Never leave the appliance
unattended when it is operating.
●When removing the blender or mill
from the power unit:
●●wait until the blades have
completely stopped;
●●don’t accidentally unscrew the
goblet or mill jar from the blade
assembly.
●Never run the blender empty.
●Never blend more than the
maximum capacity stated in the
recommended speed chart.
●To ensure long life of your blender,
do not run it for longer than 60
seconds or the mill for longer than
30 seconds.
●Smoothie recipes - never blend
frozen ingredients that have formed
a solid mass during freezing, break it
up before adding to the goblet.
●Don’t use the blender as a storage
container. Keep it empty before and
after use.

dry level surface.

near a hot gas or electric burner or
where it could touch a heated
