that appliance corresponds to the voltage of your mains supply.
• Models with a chrome finish must always be connected to a grounding outlet
with their original power cord.
• Never allow the power cord to dangle over the edge of your worktop or counter,
and make sure it never comes into contact with hot surfaces.
• Never insert your hands – or a utensil - in the feed tube while the disc, blade or
juicer is moving, to prevent serious injury and avoid damaging the appliance
• You may use a spatula, but only when the processor is not running.
• Never put the processor bowls in your microwave oven.
• Always handle the discs and blades with caution, as they are extremely sharp.
• To avoid all risk of injury, never install the metal blades or discs on the motor
shaft unless the bowl has been locked into position first.

EGG WHISK
WHIPS cream
Before you begin, chill the bowl and
ingredients in the fridge for an hour. Pour
the whipping or double cream into the bowl.
Whisk continuously, keeping a close eye
on the cream so that it does not turn into
butter.
Put the lid on and turn until it locks into
place.
WHISKS egg whites
Put the egg whites in the bowl
Whisk continuously for 5-8 minutes,
depending on the number of egg whites.
Your bowl must be clean and cry. To allow enough air in, remove the pusher beforehand.
2 3
Slot the egg whisk onto the motor shaft. It
needs to be at the bottom of the bowl. Add
the ingredients.
When whisking egg whites or whipping
cream, remove the graduated single pusher
from the feed tube to allow more air in.
Make sure you fit the four sections
together correctly. Check that the metal
shaft has been correctly inserted. It should
protrude slightly from the top.

Check out our useful hints and tips on p. 18.
Built to an exclusive, patented Magimix design, the whisk beats the egg
whites very gradually, making them stiffer and giving them more volume.

GRATING / SLICING DISCS
Lower the midi bowl into the main bowl.
Slide the disc holder onto the motor shaft.
1 2
Position your chosen disc so that the
relevant function and thickness code is
uppermost.
For nonreversible discs*, make sure
you put them the right way up. The
central plastic part should be pointing
downwards.
Slot the disc onto the disc holder.
Turn it anticlockwise until it locks into
place (a two-stage process).
Slicing/grating discs:
each disc is engraved with a code, e.g.
R/G4: 4-mm grater
E/S2: 2-mm slicer
We recommend you use the discs in the midi bowl.

• Always handle the discs with caution,
as the blades are extremely sharp.
• Never insert a foreign object - or
your fingers - into the feed tube.
Always use the pusher designed for
that purpose.
• Never exceed the recommended
quantities (p. 5).

GRATING / SLICING DISCS
The 2-in-1 feed tube comprises:
1) a large feed tube for round or bulky
fruit and vegetables.
2) a small feed tube for small or long
fruit and vegetables.
Large feed tube: fruit or vegetables for
slicing can be left whole.
Small feed tube: to slice long fruit or
vegetables (e.g. leeks, carrots), stand them
upright and close together in the feed tube.
Small feed tube: when grating fruit or
vegetables, stack them horizontally for
longer shreds.
B) NON-XL MODELS: you may need to
cut round fruit or vegetables (e.g. apples,
tomatoes) in half.
The lid is equipped with a safety system
which means that your appliance will only
work if the bottom of the large pusher is
level with the MAX level indicator.

To preserve the appearance of the
detachable parts and make them last as
long as possible, make sure you follow
these recommendations:
• Dishwasher: select the minimum
temperature (< 100°F) and avoid the
drying cycle (generally > 140°F).
• Washing by hand: do not leave the
parts immersed in detergent for too
long. Avoid abrasive products (e.g.
stainless-steel scrubbers).
• Detergents: read the manufacturer’s
instructions to check their compatibility
with plastic items.
Never leave parts to soak. Dry them straight after washing.
Make sure you dry the stainless-steel parts thoroughly to avoid oxidizing stains.
These are purely aesthetic and do not affect the quality of the blades, discs or bowls.
Some foodstuffs such as carrots tend to stain plastic. Rubbing with a piece of kitchen
paper and a little vegetable oil will remove most of this staining.
*Insert a spoon handle into the dough blade hub to push the cap off from the inside.
The Compact model’s dough blade does not have a cap.
Warning: always handle the blades and discs with caution, as they are
extremely sharp.
Never immerse the motor unit in water.
