Stainless steel jug
1. Place the lid on the stainless-steel jug so that the two small arrows on the lid and
on the jug handle are properly aligned.
2. Then turn the cover clockwise from the open lock to the closed lock until it is
closed securely. If the lid is not closed properly, the unit will not run.
3. Place the jug on the main body making sure it fits properly in its correct position. If
the jug is not properly placed, the unit will not operate.
ASSEMBLY
Note:
The jug has marks on one of its sides and the effective maximum capacity is 2L. Do
not exceed this quantity to ensure good operation.

9
Multifunctional blade and kneading blade
The multifunctional blade is suitable for general use like chopping or mixing while cutting,
while the kneading blade is recommended for kneading and gentle mixing with no cutting.
1. Fix the sealing ring on the blade’s unit.
2. Place the blade on the location provided on the base of the jug. Make sure the
three prongs on the blade’s base aligns with opening on the base of the jug (see
diagram below)
3. Turn the jug over while holding the blade gently so that it does not fall. Ensure you
are careful while holding the multi-functional blade, as it is sharp.
4. Fit the plastic blade lock correctly on the underside of the jug and turn it clockwise
to secure the blade. Ensure the blade is secured firmly before letting go.
Align the three prongs with the
larger openings of the jug’s base
Locked Unlocked

10
To uninstall a blade:
1. Hold the blade gently to ensure it doesn’t drop when released.
2. On the underside of the jug, turn the plastic blade lock counter clockwise.
3. Remove the blade carefully. Make sure it does not fall suddenly, as it may cause
damage or be damaged itself.
Butterfly whisk accessory
This accessory works installed on top of the multifunctional blade,
this way it helps with mixing food and removing lumps. To install
the butterfly whisk accessory, align the hole on the whisk
accessory with the centre of the shaft, then push the whisk
accessory down to secure. To remove, simply pull up from the
multifunctional blade.
Notes:
•We recommend using a cloth to cover the blades before handling to avoid injury.
•If the blade is not properly attached, food or liquids may splash during cooking.
•Do not use the kneading blade above speed ‘3’ as the jug may vibrate and
present a risk.
•The distance between the kneading blade and the jug wall is 1 cm, which could
cause food to get stuck. If this happens, the unit's engine will stop working and go
into self-protection mode. Use the spatula to mix and remove stuck food so that
the appliance can resume cooking.
Notes:
•The butterfly whisk will not fit on top of the kneading blade, or on its own. It must
be fitted to the multifunctional blade.
•Do not use the butterfly whisk unless the multifunctional blade is fixed securely in
place.
•Do not use the butterfly whisk above speed ‘4’.
•Do not use the butterfly whisk at the same time with the spatula.
•Do not pour food into the jug while it is operating with this accessory fitted, as this
may cause blockage or damage.

11
Measuring cup / Lid cap
The measuring cup doubles as the lid cap, to prevent splashing and heat loss and is used to
measure food quantity. The maximum capacity is 100 ml.
1. Place the measuring cup into the lid’s opening, aligning with the grooves.
2. Turn it clockwise to lock, or anticlockwise to open it and take it out.
Notes:
•Use this measuring cup and do not use other accessory or object to close the jug’s
cover.
•Turn the measuring cup clockwise until fixed to cook without temperature (mash,
stir, mince, etc.).
•If you wish to cook with temperature, place the measuring cup in its place on the
cover without turning it. This way, steam will be able to be released.

12
Silicone spatula
The spatula is the only tool suitable for stirring food inside the
jug – other tools could scratch and damage the surface.
Small steaming basket
This small steamer has a capacity of 1L and is designed for
several purposes such as:
•Standard recipes involving steaming (pasta, noodles,
dumplings, steamed vegetables, etc.)
•It can also be used as a filter or a strainer.
WARNING: It cannot be used while the product is operating with the
blades or the butterfly whisk fitted.
Tip:
When the small steaming basket is hot, the
silicone spatula can be used to lift it out of the
stainless-steel jug. Using the groove on the
spatula’s handle, place it into the opening on
the top of the basket, and raise.

13
Large steaming basket
The large steaming basket includes three parts:
steamer body, steamer cover and internal
basket. The capacity is 3.5L.
1. Close the steamer with its cover
before using it.
2. Take off the jug lid and place the
steamer on the jug, making sure it fits
well. Be careful not to knock the
steamer while it is in use.
Notes:
•Do not touch or get close to the steamer to avoid scalding.
•Do not cover the steamer’s holes with any cloth or objects. The steam may come
out from the edge or other parts which may cause risk of scalding.
•We recommend placing foods difficult to cook on the bottom layer of the steam
basket and foods easier to cook on the top layer of the steam basket.

Practical Advice
•After use, the jug may be hot. Do not touch the surface of stainless-steel jug.
•The total amount of ingredients and liquid must not exceed the MAX limit line (2L for
cold preparation and 1.5L for hot preparation). In case of overflow, there may be a risk of
overflow and burns.
•If you are unsure of the quantities, you can use the measuring cup included.
•You can stir your ingredients in the jug before putting the lid on, this prevents the
ingredients from sticking to the bottom of the jug.
•Remove the contents from the jug when the cycle is finished, as the jug is still hot and
may burn your food.
•If the unit does not work after power-up, check if the jug and / or lid is in the correct
position. If not, remove the jug and / or lid and replace them properly.
