For preparations such as soups and purées, start off using the pulse button, then switch to
continuous mode (AUTO).
You will achieve a smoother consistency.
1 pulse = keep the PULSE button pressed down for 1-2 seconds and release.
Never unlock the lid without pressing the STOP button first. Your appliance is
fitted with a thermal failsafe that automatically switches the motor off if it is
