doughs containing yeast, e.g. bread dough.
A-shaped beater A3
and elastic A-shaped
beater A4
It is used for mixing medium heavy and lighter doughs not
containing yeast, for mixing sauces, creams, fillings, etc.
Balloon whisk A2
It is used for whisking whole eggs or egg whites, whipped
cream, light doughs, foamy creams, etc. Do not use it for
mixing heavy and thick doughs.
ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY
■ Before you start assembling or disassembling the food processor, check that it is

1. The blender is intended for preparing meals and drinks such as nutritional drinks,
milkshakes, creamy soups, sauces, spreads, fresh baby foods, etc. It is not intended
for juicing fruit and vegetables, preparing potato purée, yeast dough or for
whipping egg whites.
2. Place the prepared ingredients into the blending jar A20 and assemble the blender
according to the instructions in chapter Assembling and disassembling the blender.
Note:
The maximum capacity of the blending jar A20 is 1.5 litres, however,
we do not recommend filling the blending jar with an amount of liquid
greater than 1 litre. Certain liquids increase in volume while blending
and, therefore, are best prepared in smaller batches.
3. Make sure that the appliance is correctly assembled and that the speed control knob
A15 is set to position 0 (stand-by mode). Connect the power cord to apower socket.
4. Set the required speed using the speed control knob. We recommend to first set
the slower speed to allow the ingredients to mix together. Then you can increase
the speed. Another alternative is to directly select ablending mode, which has the
appropriate speed already set. While blending, always use your hand to hold down
the lid from above.
Attention:
The maximum operating time of the blender is 1 minute. Do
not leave the appliance in continuous operation for longer than
indicated above. Then allow the appliance to cool down for 10
minutes.
5. While blending, you may add food or liquids to the blending jar A20 through the
hole in the lid A19 after removing the inner cap A18. Never open the lid A19 during

USING THE SMOOTHIE BLENDER
1. The smoothie blender is intended for preparing fruit and vegetable smoothie drinks.
2. Add the liquids and food that you wish to blend into the nutri-bottle A22. Larger
ingredients must be first cut into cubes measuring approximately 2 cm. When filling
the nutri-bottle A22, follow all the safety instructions and the maximum amounts
of ingredients as specified for the respective type of accessory in subchapter Quick
guide to processing ingredients. The maximum capacity of the nutri-bottle A22 is
0.6 litres. Never fill it past the maximum mark.
3. Put the blade assembly A23 on to the neck of the nutri-bottle A22 so that the chopping
blades point into the nutri-bottle A22 and screw it in tightly, see figure B2.
Warning:
When handling the blade assembly A23, in order to prevent
injury, it is necessary to be especially careful. Do not touch the
blade edge.
4. Make sure that the appliance is turned off and disconnected from the power socket.
The arm A12 must be tilted down to the horizontal position, the shaft of the hub
A9 must be without attachments A1 to A4 and the stainless steel bowl A7 must be
seated in the base unit A8. Remove the cover A10 from the arm A12.
5. Turn the assembled nutri-bottle A22 over so that the blade assembly A23 is at the
bottom. As shown in figure B4, place the assembled nutri-bottle on to the hub A11
and turn it clockwise all the way. The appliance is now assembled and ready for use.
6. Set the speed control knob A15 to the smoothie mode.
7. Adhere to the maximum amount of food, processing times and speed settings as
specified in the table in the Quick guide to processing ingredients. The maximum
continuous operating time is 1 minute.
Attention:
The shaft of hub A9 will move when the smoothie blender is
used.
8. After you have finished using the appliance, set the speed control knob A15 to
position 0 (off) and disconnect the power cord plug from the power socket. Before
disconnecting it from the power socket, wait until the moving parts come to astop.
9. To disassemble proceed in the reverse sequence. The smoothie blender must be
taken off the appliance very carefully so as not to loosen the blade assembly A23
from the neck of the nutri-bottle A22.
10. If you wish to use the bottle A22 as adrink bottle, attach the lid A24 to the neck
of the nutri-bottle A22, see figure B5. Make sure that the drinking spout is properly
closed so as not to spill the bottle‘scontents when carrying it.
ADVICE AND TIPS FOR BLENDING
■ First cut food with afirm consistency such as fruit and vegetables into smaller pieces
measuring 2 to 3 cm and only then blend it.
■ First, blend asmaller amount of ingredients and then gradually add more ingredients
through the hole in the lid A19 while blending. In this way, you will achieve better
results than by adding all ingredients into the blending jar A20 at once.
■ If you need to blend food of a solid consistency together with liquids, we
recommend that you first blend the food of solid consistency with asmaller amount
of the liquids. Then gradually add the remaining liquids through the hole in the lid
A19 while blending.While blending, always use your hand to hold down the lid from
above.
■ To blend very thick liquids, we recommend using the pulse level so that the blade
assembly A21 does not get jammed too often. Start the blender repeatedly in short
intervals.
■ Ice cubes must be processed immediately upon being removed from the freezer.
When the ice starts to melt, the ice cubes will stick together and it will not be
possible to blend them.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
■ Before cleaning the food processor, always turn it off by setting the speed control
knob A15 to position 0 and disconnect it from the power socket.
■ After every use, it is necessary to thoroughly clean any used attachments in hot
water and neutral kitchen detergent. Then rinse it under clean running water and
thoroughly wipe dry with afine wiping cloth.
Note:
The attachments are intended for short term contact with food
(including beverages), i.e. max. 4 hours.
Plastic accessories may be washed in adishwasher. Do not wash metal
parts in adishwasher, otherwise their surface may be damaged. Certain
foods may cause discolouration of plastic parts on accessories. If this
occurs, coat these parts with cooking oil and then wash in the normal
way.
■ Wash the stainless steel mixing bowl A7 using hot water and neutral kitchen
detergent. Then rinse it under clean running water and wipe dry with afine wiping
cloth.
Tip:
If you whisked egg whites, first rinse the elastic balloon whisk A2 and
the mixing bowl A7 under cold water. If you were to use hot water,
the egg white remains would harden and their removal would be
more difficult.
■ To clean the base unit A8 and the arm A12, use acloth dipped in aweak detergent
solution. Then wipe everything dry.
■ Never submerge the appliance or its power cord in water or any other liquids.
For cleaning do not use thinners or solvents or cleaning agents causing abrasion.
Otherwise, the surface of the appliance may be damaged.
■ Disassemble the assembled blending jar A20 and nutri-bottle A22 into their
individual parts and thoroughly wash them with warm water using neutral kitchen
detergent.Then rinse the bottles or parts under clean running water and thoroughly
wipe dry with afine wiping cloth.
Attention:
When cleaning blade assemblies A21 and A23, take special care
to avoid injury on the sharp cutting edges.
STORAGE
■ If you will not be using the food processor, store it in adry place out of children’sreach.
Make sure that the arm A12 is tilted into the horizontal position.
TIPS AND ADVICE
BREAD DOUGH – INGREDIENTS
FLOUR
This is the most important ingredient used for baking bread. Together with yeast it
creates the texture of the loaf. When it is mixed with aliquid, the proteins contained in
it start to create gluten. Gluten is aweb of flexible fibres which entrap gases produced
by the yeast.
White wheat flour
It is sold as baking flour, bread flour or fine wheat flour. Fine flour is the most readily
available, nevertheless, you will achieve better result with flour with aprotein content
of at least 11% to 12%. The recipes included in this user’s manual require the use
of bread flour with a protein content of 11%. This information is provided on the
packaging of the flour. Do not sieve the flour or use flour with baking powder unless
specified in the recipe.
Whole grain wheat flour
It is produced from wheat grains and contains bran and germ. Bread baked from this
type of flour will be denser.You will achieve aless dense bread by replacing one cup of
whole grain flour with one cup of white bread flour.
Rye flour
It is very popular in bread making. It contains alarge amount of mineral compounds,
but has alow protein content and so it is usually combined with wheat flour to ensure
that the bread rises well.
Gluten flour
It is produced by extracting gluten from wheat grains. Adding gluten flour can improve
the texture and quality of the bread when using aflour with alower protein content.
BREAD MIXES
They contain flour, sugar, dried milk, salt and other ingredients such as bread improver.
Usually water and yeast is added.
BREAD IMPROVER
It is available in supermarkets and health food stores. The ingredients contained
in bread improver are usually food processing industry acids such as ascorbic acid
(vitamin C) and enzymes (amylase) extracted from wheat flour.
Bread improver will help in firming up the dough, thus achieving alarger size loaf and
finer texture. The bread is more stable and lasts longer.
SUGAR
It provides sweetness, flavour and abrown colour to the bread crust. It is added to
yeast. White sugar, brown sugar or honey are suitable.
DRIED MILK AND DAIRY PRODUCTS
They enrich the taste and increase the nutritional value of the bread. Dried milk is
suitable and easy to use. Store it in an air-tight container in the refrigerator. Likewise,
dried soya milk may be used but it makes the bread tougher. Fresh milk should not be
substituted unless indicated in the recipe otherwise.
SALT
It is an important ingredient for baking bread. It increases the absorption capacity of
the dough, improves kneading, supports gluten development and has an effect on the
shape of the loaf, texture of the crumb, taste and increases the lifetime of the bread.
Measure it out carefully as it prevents the bread from rising.
FAT
Adds flavour and retains moisture. Vegetable oils such as safflower, sunflower or
rape seed oil may be used. Oils can be substituted for by butter or margarine, however
the crust colour may become
yellowish.
YEAST
It is used as aleavening agent. The recipes in this user’smanual use dried yeast. Prior
to using dried yeast, always check the use-by-date because yeast with an expired use-
by-date may
cause the dough not to rise.
Three times as much fresh or pressed yeast must be used compared to dried yeast. To
create astarter, one needs liquid, sugar and heat.
FAST RISING YEAST
It is amix of yeast and bread improver. If you wish to replace standard yeast in your
recipe with this type of yeast then leave out the bread improver. Fast rising dough
should not be used in combination with bread mixes as abread improver is usually
already contained in them.
WATER
Standard tap water is usually used. It is necessary to warm cold water up to room
temperature before use. Water that is too cold or too hot will prevent the starter from
forming.
EGGS
They are used in certain bread recipes. They help the dough to rise and increase the
nutritional value of the bread. They add flavour and afine crust and usually are used
for sweeter types of bread.
OTHER INGREDIENTS
Ingredients such as dried fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, etc. which should remain whole
in the baked bread, should be mixed into the dough. They should be added to the
dough gradually during the kneading process before the dough rises.
BREAD DOUGH – PREPARATION
■ Check the minimum lifetime or the use-by-date of all the ingredients.
■ Add the ingredients in the order that they are provided in the recipe.
■ Store opened foods in air-tight containers.
■ Allow ingredients that you have taken out of the refrigerator to first reach room
temperature before using them.
■ If not indicated in the recipe otherwise, use bread flour. Do not use flour with
aprotein content lower than 11%.
■ Do not use flour with baking powder for making a yeast-based bread, unless
indicated otherwise in the recipe.
■ If you live in alocation that is above 900 m above sea level, you will probably need
to adjust the amount of yeast indicated in the recipe. The higher the above-sea-level
altitude, the lower the air pressure and the faster dough rises.
■ It is recommended to use ¼ of ateaspoon of yeast less than indicated in the recipe.
■ If the weather is hot and humid, use ¼ of ateaspoon of yeast less than is indicated in
the recipe to prevent the dough from over-rising.
■ The properties of the flour may change with the season or type of storage. Then it is
necessary to adjust the water to flour ratio in the following way. If the dough is too
sticky, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour. If the dough is too dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons
of water. Several minutes are needed for these ingredients to be absorbed. It should
be possible to shape adough with the right amount of flour and water into asmooth
loaf that is moist to touch but not sticky.
How to prepare ayeast starter
■ Pour the amount of warm water indicated in the recipe into aclean glass bowl. Then
add the necessary amount of fresh or pressed yeast together with 1 teaspoon of
sugar and one teaspoon of flour. Carefully mix everything together and cover with
aplastic bag. Leave it in awarm place (30 °C) for approximately 30 minutes or until
the mixture foams up. This mixture should be used immediately.
Rising in awarm location
■ Yeast, whether it be during fermentation or in the dough, requires heat to grow in
volume. Create awarm place for rising your dough by placing ametal baking tray
onto abowl with sufficiently hot water. Place the prepared dough on to the baking
tray and cover with alightly greased thicker plastic bag or akitchen wiping cloth.
Awarm location without adraft is required for dough to rise. Allow the dough to rise
until it doubles in volume.

CAKE AND PASTRY DOUGH – INGREDIENTS
FLOUR
Flour used for cakes and fine pastries should have alower protein (gluten) content,
than flour used for baking bread.
Medium-fine and fine flour
This flour has alower protein (gluten) content and gives the baked goods, such as
cakes, tarts, fine pastry, pancakes afiner texture.
Flour with baking powder
It is amixture of flour and leavening agents such as baking powder. To make 1 cup of
the flour and baking powder mixture, mix 1 cup of flour with 2 teaspoons of baking
powder.
Whole grain flour
Contains bran and wheat germ and may be used in doughs for tarts and pies. The
texture of aproduct made from whole wheat flour will be denser.
Corn flour
It is made from corn and is used for certain baked goods to which it loans a finer
texture. It may be used to thicken sauces and desserts.
Rice flour
It is made from rice and is used to make the texture of baked goods finer, for example
for shortcrust pastry.
BAKING POWDER
It is used as aleavening agent in baking.
BAKING SODA
It is known as sodium bicarbonate. It can be used as an additional leavening agent or
for darkening certain baked goods.
BUTTER
It provides aspecific taste and afine texture to baked goods. In certain recipes it is
possible to substitute oil for butter, however the resulting taste and texture of the
baked good will be different. In this case, use ¼ less butter than the amount of oil
indicated in the recipe. Before you start whipping butter together with sugar, allow it
to soften at room temperature.
EGGS
Eggs should be at room temperature to give the correct volume to baked goods. Crack
the eggs individually into aseparate bowl and only then add to the other ingredients.
This will prevent ruining the entire batch if one of the eggs is rotten. If you will be
whisking the egg whites, carefully separate them from the yolks. Egg yolks contain
fat and their remains prevent the successful whipping up of egg whites. Before you
start whipping the egg whites, make sure that the whisk and the mixing bowl are
completely clean and without fat residues. Otherwise, the egg whites might not be
perfectly whipped.
MILK
Full-cream milk should be used unless indicated in the recipe otherwise. Low-fat or
half-cream milk can be used but the final taste and texture of the baked goods may
be different.
SUGAR
Usually white granulated sugar is used. It adds flavour, texture and colour to baked
goods.
Caster sugar is also frequently used because it dissolves easier when it is whipped
with butter. Brown sugar may be used to add adifferent taste and colour to the baked
goods.
BAKING
Allow the oven to preheat to the correct temperature before starting baking.
The baking temperature may differ depending on the type of baking oven. Reduce
the temperature indicated in the recipe by 15 – 20˚C if using ahot-air oven.
Instead of floured baking pans and trays, you can use parchment paper if
appropriate. You can coat the baking pan with asmall amount of fat to prevent the
parchment paper from sliding on the smooth surface of the baking pan.
Test that the baked good is finished before taking it out of the oven. Gently touch
the top of the baked good, if it returns to its initial shape, it should be properly
baked. Carefully insert askewer into the middle of the baked good and pull it out. If
the dough does not stick to the skewer, the baked good is finished.
To make biscuits crispier, take the baking tray out of the oven and place it onto
ametal rack. Move the individual items on the baking tray from their baking location
and allow them to cool down. Once they cool down move them from the baking tray
to aplatter.

the speed to level 1 and carefully add half the sugar and whip it in. Then add the
remaining sugar.
■ Using aspoon, apply asmall amount of the snowy mixture on to alightly greased
baking tray. Leave about 3 cm around the individual pieces so that they do not bake
to one another.
■ Bake in the oven at 120 °C about 1 to 1½ hours or until the snow puffs are dry. To
avoid burning them, do not, however, bake then too long. Take them off the baking
tray and put them aside to cool down and store them in an air-tight container.
Note:
You can use a decorating tool to create larger snow puffs. This may
necessitate alonger baking time.

White bread
4 cups (600 g) of bread flour
3 tablespoons of dried milk
1½ teaspoons of salt
1½ tablespoons of sugar
1 teaspoon of bread improver
2 teaspoons of instant yeast
2 tablespoons of oil
1½ cups (375 ml) of water
additional bread flour for hand kneading
■ Use the kneading hook A1.
■ In the mixing bowl, mix the flour, dried milk, salt, sugar, bread improver and the
instant yeast.
■ Set the speed to 1–2 and slowly add water and oil into the dry mix. Leave it to knead
until adough starts to form.
■ Move the dough on to alightly floured rolling board and thoroughly knead by hand
until the dough is sufficiently fine and smooth.
Note:
At this stage, the dough should be very well kneaded so that
gluten is formed, which gives the dough the correct elasticity
and helps it to rise.
■ Place the dough into alarge bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow it to rise in
awarm place for about 20 minutes or until the dough doubles in size.
■ Take the risen dough out of the bowl and knead once more on a lightly floured
rolling board.
■ Place the dough into a baking pan. Cover with plastic wrap and allow it rise in
a warm place for about 30–40 minutes or until the dough has risen sufficiently.
Remove the plastic wrap.
■ You can apply an egg glaze before baking. Bake in apreheated oven at 200°C for
approximately 40–50 minutes or until the bread is golden in colour.
■ Allow the baked bread to cool down for 15 to 20 minutes and then remove it from
the baking pan. Allow the loaf to cool down completely before cutting it, to prevent
it from collapsing.
Egg glaze for bread dough
1 egg, lightly beaten
2–3 tablespoons of water
■ Mix both ingredients together until asmooth mixture is formed. Do not whip. If
necessary strain through asieve. Brush the egg glaze on to the bread dough before
baking.
Focaccia (2–4 portions)
3 cups (450 g) of bread flour
1 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of sugar
2 teaspoons of instant yeast
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 cup (250 ml) of water
For glazing:
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 tablespoon of coarse salt
2 tablespoons of black olives, sliced
■ Use the kneading hook A1.
■ In the mixing bowl, mix the flour, salt, sugar and yeast.
■ Set the speed to 1–2 and slowly add water and oil into the dry mix. Leave it to knead
until adough starts to form.
■ Move the dough on to alightly floured rolling board and thoroughly knead by hand
until afine smooth dough forms.
■ Place the dough into alarge bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow it to rise in
awarm place for about 20 minutes or until the dough doubles in size.
■ Take the risen dough out of the bowl and knead once more on a lightly floured
rolling board.
■ Place the dough into alightly greased Teflon baking pan of dimensions 20 × 30 cm
and roll into the shape of the baking pan.
■ Lightly cover with plastic wrap and allow it rise in a warm place for about 20-
30 minutes or until the dough has risen alittle. Remove the plastic wrap.
■ Brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle on the coarse salt and sliced olives. •
Bake in apreheated oven at 200 °C for approximately 30-35 minutes or until the
focaccia bread is golden in colour.
■ After taking it out of the oven, allow it to cool down on ametal rack.
