7 Connect the power plug to a suitable power
outlet.
8 The cutting speed can be variably adjusted
with the control dial H .
Notes
█ To operate the blender at low speed, turn
the control dial H to “1”.
█ If you want to blend with a higher speed,
turn the control dial H to the desired speed
level (5-6).
█ For short pulses of blending with a high
speed, turn the control dial H to “P”. When
you re- lease the control dial H , the blender
will stop and return to “0” automatically.
█ If ingredients are to be added during the
blending process, then add them through
the opening in the lid B . To do this, take
out the cap/measuring cup A .
9 After the desired consistency of the
blended food has been reached, turn the
control dial H to 0 to switch off the
blender.
Caution
█ Never run the blender for longer than 1
min- ute, otherwise it would overheat.
█ After running the appliance for 1 minute, let
it cool down before using it again.
█ Be sure the motor is switched off and has
com- pletely stopped before removing the
glass jug D from the motor housing G .
█ Do not place any utensil (scraper, fork, etc.)

INFORMATION
Tips for blending inside the jug blender.This will make it
more difficult to clean it later.
█ To add ice cubes to mixtures while the
blender is operating, add one cube at a time
through the cap A . Wait a few seconds
before adding the next ice cube so that the
blender can prop- erly blend the ice.
█ To add food while the blender is operating,
remove the cap A and drop the ingredients
through the opening. Be sure to cut the
food into about 2-5 cm pieces to fit
through the opening. Replace the cap A
when you have finished adding
ingredients.
█ When blending solid food, such as raw veg-
etables, cooked or uncooked meat and
fruits always cut them into no larger than
2-5 cm pieces before placing them into the
glass jug. Blend no more than 2 cups of
these food at a time.This will speed the
blending process and reduce wear on the
blending blades.
█ Always place liquid ingredients in the glass
jug first, unless a recipe specifically states
other- wise.
█ To blend beverages, place all ingredients
in the glass jug at the same time.
█ Avoid overblending. Usually, you will need
to blend for a few seconds.
█ Overblending may cause food to become
mushy.
