Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR
SUNBEAM CAFÈ SERIES BLENDER.
• Ensure fingers are kept well away from the
blades when in use. The processing baton
may be used while the motor is running with
the main part of the lid in place.
• Always operate on a flat level surface.
• Ensure the control dial is in the “OFF”
position and the jug is in place before
plugging into the power outlet.
• Do not operate on low speed for more than
30 seconds at a time when blending heavy
loads.
• Always remove the plug from the power
outlet when the blender is not in use, before
disassembling, putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning other than washing the
jug.
• Blade is sharp, handle carefully.
• Always operate the blender with the lid in
place.
• Do not place the blade assembly onto the
motor base without it being correctly fitted to
the jug.
• The maximum load capacity of the jug is
2 litres, and substantially less with thick
mixtures.
• When making peanut butter (or other nut
butters, or oil based foods) do not process
for more than one minute after mixture starts
circulating. Over-processing will cause the
mixture in the jug to overheat.
• Jug should not be more than 2/3 full when
the processing baton is left in place while
blending. Do not exceed 30 seconds of
continuous blending with processing baton in
place.
• The blender is fitted with a safety switch to
prevent the motor operating unless the jug is
in place.
• Do not blend boiling ingredients, allow to
cool before placing in jug.

Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
Sunbeam are very safety conscious when
designing and manufacturing consumer products,
but it is essential that the product user also
exercise care when using an electrical appliance.
Listed below are precautions which are essential
for the safe use of an electrical appliance:
• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.
• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove
by grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.
• Turn the power off and remove the plug
when the appliance is not in use and
before cleaning.
• Do not use your appliance with an extension
cord unless this cord has been checked
and tested by a qualified technician or
service person.
• Always use your appliance from a power
outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked
on the appliance.
• Close supervision is necessary when your
appliance is being used near children or
infirm persons.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.
• Do not use an appliance for any purpose
other than its intended use.
• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas
flame, electric element or on a heated oven.
Do not place on top of any other appliance.
• Do not let the power cord of an appliance hang
over the edge of a table or bench top or touch
any hot surface.
• Do not operate any electrical appliance with
a damaged cord or after the appliance has
been damaged in any manner. If damage is
suspected, return the appliance to the nearest
Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for examination, repair or adjustment.
• For additional protection, Sunbeam
recommend the use of a residual current
device (RCD) with a tripping current not
exceeding 30mA in the electrical circuit
supplying power to your appliances.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid unless recommended.

keeps the jug stable in 4 positions
during processing, wipes clean and
also protects the long life metal-to-
metal driver.
Variable speed control and pulse
The variable speed control and pulse
function provide maximum versatility
for a wide range of food processing
tasks rather than purely blending of
liquids.
Heavy-duty 1000 watt motor
Enables blade speeds to reach up to
22,000 revolutions per minute (RPM)
delivering the power to uniformly chop
small or large quantities of ingredients
regardless of the load. Its high
performance and reliability are backed
by a 5 year motor guarantee.
Non-slip feet
Heavy-duty non-slip feet ensure the
blender remains stable and prevents
slipping on the bench top during use.
Cord wrap
Cord wraps away to keep bench top
clean.

8
Variable speed dial
Turn the speed control dial in a clockwise
direction and the blender automatically
starts. The variable speed dial allows you to
select continuously variable motor speeds
ranging from 7,000 to 22,000 revolutions
per minute (free load).
Pulse button
The Pulse feature provides short bursts of
power, to activate depress the Pulse button
and hold down as long as needed. Ideal
for crushing ice, preparing breadcrumbs,
grinding chocolate, nuts and biscuits and for
refreshing ingredients in the jug.
Speed dial and Pulse function
The lid is easy to position on or remove, and
to clean for quick operation, see figure 1.
1. Simply push lid down firmly to seal.
2. To secure the measuring cap, slide it into
the top of the rubber lid and rotate to lock.
3. The measuring cap can be removed when

1. Place the jug on the motor base by
locating it over the nodules on the rubber
dampening pad. The jug can be placed on
the motor base in 4 different positions.
2. Place ingredients into the jug.
Note: Do not operate the blender when the
jug is empty.
3. Place the lid firmly into position on the
jug. Always ensure the measuring cap is
in place when processing except when the
processing baton is inserted through the
opening in the lid.
Note: Always have the lid in position during
processing.
4. Using the variable speed dial, select the
desired processing speed from 1 – 5 and
this will provide continuous processing
until the dial is turned anti-clockwise to
the OFF position.
Due to the high processing speed of the
Café Series™ Blender, processing times
are significantly reduced over those of
standard blenders. Therefore we advise
that until you are familiar with the speed
of the Café Series™ Blender that you
keep a close watch on ingredients being
processed.
Tip: Once processing has commenced, further
ingredients can be added by removing the
measuring cap and pouring ingredients
through the hole in the lid.
Note: Wait until blade comes to a complete
stop before removing the lid or jug.

Blade assembly
Important: Always ensure the blender is
unplugged from the power outlet before
fitting or removing the blade assembly.
Always handle the blade assembly with
caution, as the blades are extremely sharp.
To assemble the blade assembly follow these
steps and refer to figure 2;
1. Position blade assembly into position in
jug.
2. Whilst carefully holding the blade assembly
in position place the locking nut on the
underside of the jug and tighten.

Processing Baton
Specially designed to assist during
demanding processing tasks, the baton allows
you to safely push food down into the blades
while the blender is operating. See figure 3.
Note: When using the processing baton
ensure the lid is firmly in place and the
measuring cap is removed.
Uses for the processing baton
• The processing baton can be used as a
scraper or spatula to easily remove thick
mixtures such as batters and sauces from
the jug.
• Use the processing baton to encourage
hard to process ingredients into the
blades.
• Using the processing baton reduces
blending times.

Dishwashing
All parts of the Café Series™ Blender,
excluding the motor base can be placed in
the dishwasher for effortless cleaning after
processing.
Quick clean
Half fill the blender with warm water and
a small amount of detergent. Position the
jug on the motor base and run the blender
for 20-30 seconds. Remove the jug, rinse it
under running water and then allow to air dry.
Thorough cleaning
After completing the quick clean, should
any ingredients remain, using the spanner,
remove the blade assembly and wash both
the jug and blade assembly in warm soapy
water. Rinse well and dry.
Rinse the lid, ingredient cap and processing
baton under running water and wash with
warm soapy water. Rinse well and dry.
To clean the motor base
Use a damp, soft sponge with mild detergent
and wipe over the motor base.
Note: Never immerse the motor base in water
or other liquid.
Care and Cleaning

Helpful blending hints
• Use the processing baton to remove thick
mixtures from the container.
• Make caster sugar or pure icing sugar from
regular sugar. Simply place up to 2 cups
of sugar into the jug and continue to pulse
mixture for caster sugar or blend on speed
4 for icing sugar.
• Ice cubes can be blended to make fluffy
ice shavings. Place up to 8 large ice cubes
into the jug and Pulse until a snow like
texture is achieved.
• Achieve crushed ice suitable for snow
cones, simply place 1 tray of ice cubes
into the jug with approximately 30mls of
water and pulse until combined.
• When freezing fruit make sure the fruit is
of the best quality. Peel all fruit that has
skin that cannot be pureed. Chop fruit
into even size chunks approximately 3cm
square. If strawberries are large, cut in
half. Peel bananas and cut into even size
chunks. Lay fruit in a single layer on a
tray, cover and freeze. Remove pulp from
passionfruit and freeze in ice cube trays.
Once frozen, transfer into sealable bags or
freezer containers. This way you will always
have fruit ready to blend.
• When chopping ingredients such as onions,
nuts or biscuits use the pulse button.
This helps you to achieve a perfect result
without overprocessing.
• Thickened cream can be whipped in
seconds. Blend on speed 4 until the
mixture thickens then use the processing
baton to check the cream for the desired
texture.
• Ensure all fruit juices are chilled before
blending as this will help to keep drinks
colder for longer.
• When making thick shakes don’t use
hard ice cream straight from the freezer.
Leave ice cream out for approximately 5
minutes before blending, this time may
vary depending on how cold your freezer is.
Ice cream with a higher cream content may
need a little extra milk and always place
ice cream in the jug in small pieces, never
in large chunks.
Note: Never fill above the maximum level
indicator of 2 litres.
Note: Ensure the lid is firmly and securely
placed on the jug and do not operate the
blender without the lid on. If you wish to
add any additional ingredients remove the
ingredient cap and add as necessary.
