Helpful Hints
• The hand blender can be used in hot liquids. Always use care when
using in hot liquids. To avoid splashing when using the hand blender
in a saucepan, insert the hand blender into the pan first, set the
speed dial to “1”, and then press the ON/OFF switch for operation,
slowly raising the speed to your desired setting. Caution: Do not tilt
or lift the Immersion Blender out of the pan while the motor is
running, as a serious burn or injury can occur from food splatter.
• To puree foods, a certain amount of liquid is needed.
Add cooking liquid, broth, juice, milk, or cream, until desired
consistency is reached.
• For thorough blending, move blade up and down in mixture until smooth.
• You will achieve better mixing results if you use deep, tall containers.
• For easy cleanup, unplug blender and rinse under running water
immediately after using.
• Place liquid ingredients into the beaker first unless recipe specifically
states otherwise.
• Before turning the appliance on, immerse the hand blender attachment
into the prepared ingredients, thus ensuring they will not spill over.
• For greater efficiency, move the appliance in small outward spiraling
circles while mixing, without touching the bottom of the beaker with
the hand blender attachment.
• The hand blender attachment cannot blend hard or fibrous ingre-
dients unless they are in less than 1/2" pieces, soft ones into 1/2 - 1"
pieces.
• Some foods require a small amount of liquid to allow them to move
freely around the blades. Soft or wetter foods require less liquid,
while dry ingredients require more liquid. Add the liquid a little at a
time until the mix gains the required consistency.
• When using the hand blender, ensure the blades are covered to avoid
splashing.

Assembly and Use
of Food Chopper Attachment
1Ensure the Motor Base is unplugged.
2Assemble Chopper Bowl by first placing
the Chopping Blade onto the Blade Shaft
in the Chopper Bowl. (see figure 1) Then
place food in bowl. For best results, solid
foods should be no larger than 1/2" cubes.
3Place the Chopper Bowl lid on top of the
Chopper Bowl. (see figure 2)
4Attach Motor Base to top of Bowl Cover
by turning clockwise.
5Plug into 120-volt 60 Hz AC only outlet.
6Attach the Motor Base to the chopping
bowl as follows: Hold the cover firmly with
one hand, while holding the Motor Base
with the arrows slightly to the right of the
arrows on the bowl lid. Turn the Motor
Base counter clockwise. (see figure 3)
7Always use slight downward pressure
when operating the Motor Base, while the
other hand is placed firmly on the Bowl
Cover. Always ensure your speed selector
is on “5” when chopping. Use a pulse
action when chopping by pressing and
releasing ON/OFF switch.
8Do not operate the motor continuously for
more than 15 seconds when using chopper
attachment, otherwise food will be too
finely chopped.
9When you are finished, simply release the
ON/OFF switch, unplug the Motor Base,
and then unscrew the Chopper Bowl.
