Note: Do not immerse the body, and/or the power cord of a blender in water under any circumstances!
Dry thoroughly with a soft, absorbent cloth. Wash the attachments by hand or in the dishwasher (top rack only). Dry thoroughly before use. -
Read all instructions completely for detailed operating procedures.

Carefully remove the plastic cover from the blades before chopping.

BLENDING TIPS
- A gentle up-and-down motion is all you need to make the most flavorful, full-bodied recipes.
- When using a non-stick cooking surface, be careful not to scratch the coating with the Hand blender.
- To avoid splashing, don’t turn the Hand blender ON until the blade is beneath the surface of the mixture, and do not pull the Blending Attachment out of the mixture while the blender is running.
- Do not put fruit pits, bones, or other hard material into the blending mixture, as these will damage the blades.
- For recipes calling for ice, use crushed ice (not whole cubes) for the best results.
- When making compound butter, remove the butter from the refrigerator and let it reach room temperature before blending.
HOW TO USE THE WHISK ATTACHMENT
The whisk attachment is great for whipping cream and egg whites, and for mixing light cake mixes and cookie batter.
-
Insert the top of the Whisk Attachment into the slot of the Whisk Gear-box and push them together to secure it in place.
-
Connect the Whisk Gearbox to the base of the Motor Body and push down to secure until a click is heard.

IMPORTANT: Do not hold the Power button for longer than 1 minute at a time.
WHISKING TIPS
- When beating egg whites, use a clean metal or glass bowl, never plastic. Plastic can contain hidden oils and fats that can ruin the delicate egg-white foam.
- Add sugar to beaten egg whites slowly as the peaks have started to form.
- When beating heavy cream, if possible, and if time allows, use a chilled bowl, and chill the whisk attachment. The best-shaped bowl for whipping cream is one that is deep with a rounded bottom. The cream should come out of the refrigerator just before whipping. Hold the whisk attachment so that it is just skimming the surface, and whip until the cream begins to thicken; then immerse the whisk totally into the cream.
- The cream can be whipped to either soft or firm peaks, depending on preference. It may be flavored as desired.
HOW TO USE THE CHOPPER ATTACHMENTS
The Chopper is perfectly suited for hard food such as meat, cheese, onion, herbs, garlic, carrot, walnut, almond, prunes, etc. Do not use it on extremely hard food such as ice cubes, coffee beans, nutmeg, and similar.
Before chopping
- Pre-cut the food you wish to chop.
- Remove stalks from herbs, and shell the nuts.
- Remove bones, tendons, and gristle from meat.
-
Place the Chopper Bowl on a flat, stable, non-slippery surface.
-
Slide in the Chopper Shaft on the center pin of the Chopper Bowl.
CAUTION: The blade on the Chopper Shaft is extremely sharp! Always hold it by the upper plastic part. -
Place the food around the blades in the Chopper Bowl.
-
Locate the three pins on the Chopper Lid and align them to the three match-ing slots on the Chopper Bowl. Turn clockwise to lock in place.
-
Insert the Motor Body into the Chopper Lid and push down to secure it until a click is heard.
-
Turn the speed control knob to adjust the speed of the blender.
-
Hold the Motor Body with one hand and use your other hand to the firm hold the Chopper Bowl by its lid.
-
Press and hold the Power button to start chopping. Release the Power Button, and the motor will stop running.
NOTE: Keep the Turbo Button pressed separately for maximum speed.
IMPORTANT: Do not hold the Power button for longer than 1 minute at a time. If you are using the blender for chopping hard food, we recommend taking a break every 15 seconds. -
Unplug immediately after use .

FAQs
What are the differences between the Smart Stick and the Smart Stick Plus?****
The Smart Stick Plus has a variable speed control, which allows you to change the speed of the motor. The Smart Stick Plus also has a pulse function, which allows you to chop or puree foods in short bursts. Both models come with an attachment for blending soups and sauces
What are the disadvantages of a stick blender?****
You have to disassemble a jar blender and wash a lot of parts. Not all models are dishwasher-safe. If you get one that is, it will likely take up a good amount of space on the racks and it might not come out perfectly clean after a cycle.
What is an immersion stick blender used for?****
An immersion blender can be used to mix, puree, and emulsify just about anything a regular blender can. Think pureed soups, fruity smoothies, custom aiolis, fresh pestos, baby food, and more.
How are stick blenders powered?****
An immersion blender comprises an electric motor driving rotating cutting blades at the end of a shaft that can be immersed in the food being blended, inside a housing that can be held by hand. The shaft with blades is often detachable to facilitate cleaning, and there may be multiple different attachments available.
How much power should an immersion blender have?****
Most immersion blenders start at about 200 watts but can go up to 1,000 watts. In general, the higher the wattage, the greater the power.
Are immersion blenders heat-safe?****
A handheld immersion blender is the easiest (and often safest) way to purée hot soups on the stove and is often a low-cost investment for any kitchen. Just be sure to keep the head of the blender immersed in the hot liquid when blending.
Can you use an immersion blender while cooking?****
Don’t get us wrong, we love a chunky tomato sauce or a bolognese sauce, but sometimes a smooth pureed vodka sauce hits the spot. Plop your immersion blender in the pot and give it a quick whirl for instant creamy sauce perfection.
Do you need to move an immersion blender?****
Using an immersion blender is simple. Submerge the blender’s blade completely into the food or drink you want to mix before turning the appliance on. Move the blender around the container to mix all the contents. Keep the blade submerged to avoid splatters.
How long can you run an immersion blender?****
It is important that the motor unit is only run for 1 minute, no longer, in any 4-minute period, particularly for heavy mixtures. In the unlikely event you need to use the hand blender for longer ensure it is allowed to rest.
How do you take care of an immersion blender?****
There’s an easy way to clean an immersion blender that’s actually kind of fun. After blending your recipe (like this creamy soup), fill a tall glass about three-quarters full with warm soapy water. Run the blender in the water for 10 to 20 seconds. If needed, empty and refill the glass and repeat.
Are all immersion blenders the same?****
Exactly what a stick blender is called is based on the manufacturer’s preference. All three – stick, hand, and immersion terms refer to the same type of appliance. And all must be immersed (in food) to blend without making a mess.
Can you use an immersion blender for ice?****
If you’re talking about pulverizing whole cubes, an immersion blender is definitely not the way to go. Its blades aren’t big or sturdy enough, and the design of the blender itself just isn’t designed for the task. You’ll dull the blades, overwork the motor, and still only come up with like, a tablespoon of crushed ice.
