Glass Blender – To blend dry ingredients – cut into pieces, remove the filler cap, then with the machine running, drop the pieces down one by one. Keep your hand over the opening. For best results empty regularly.

The processing of spices is not recommended as they may damage the plastic parts.

When making mayonnaise, put all the ingredients, except the oil, into the blender. Glass Blender – Remove the filler cap. Plastic Blender – Pour through the drip feed in the lid. Then, with the appliance running, add the oil slowly through the hole in the lid.

Thick mixtures, e.g. pâtés and dips, may need scraping down. If the mixture is difficult to process, add more liquid.

Refer to Illustrations C.

1 Add ingredients to the bottle up to the 400ml level mark.

For best blending performance always add ice/frozen ingredients to the bottle first.

When adding frozen ingredients (i.e. frozen fruit, yoghurt, ice cream or ice) do not blend more than 60g or 3 ice cubes.

Do not blend frozen ingredients without liquid.

2 Fit the sealing ring to the blade unit, ensuring the seal is located correctly in the grooved area. Then clip to the base.

Leaking will occur if the seal is damaged or incorrectly fitted.

3 Hold the underside of the blade unit and lower it onto the bottle, blades down.

4 Screw the blade assembly onto the bottle. Refer to the graphics on the underside of the blade unit as follows: – open, – close. Shake to disperse the ingredients.

Place the blender onto the power unit and turn clockwise to lock.

5 Select maximum speed. Allow the ingredients to blend until smooth.

Once your drink has reached the desired consistency, you can use the pulse ‘P’ to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly blended.

1 Fit and lock the lid by turning clockwise.

2 When you want to drink, simply flip open the lid cover. The drink can be consumed straight from the bottle.

Do not operate your appliance for longer than the times specified below without a rest period. Processing continuously for longer periods can damage your appliance. Do not blend more than the maximum capacity stated on the goblet. Do not fill below the minimum capacity marking on the goblet.

Note that when the bottle is filled to max capacity (400ml), this is approximately two servings.

Ensure your drink is thin enough to be able to drink from the dispensing lid. To make a thinner drink add more liquid.

After blending, some drinks may not be completely smooth due to seeds or the fibrous nature of ingredients.

When drinking through the lid, take care that the drink is smooth and fully processed. Some experimentation may be necessary when processing firm or unripe ingredient to achieve the desired result.

Some drinks may separate on standing, therefore it is best to drink them straight away or stir before drinking.

When the dispensing lid is fitted always keep the bottle upright.

Refer to Illustrations D.

Use your multi mill for nuts, coffee beans and purees.

Do not operate your appliance for longer than the times specified below without a rest period. Processing continuously for longer periods can damage your appliance.

For optimum performance when processing spices we recommend that you do not process more than 40g at a time in the mill.

Whole spices retain their flavour for a much longer time than ground spices so it is best to grind a small quantity fresh at a time to retain the flavour.

To release the maximum flavour and essential oils whole spices are best roasted prior to milling.

Baby food/purees – allow cooked food to cool to room temperature before processing in the mill.
