Position the glass jug onto a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface.
Remove the lid. Be careful not to touch the blade.
Carefully apply a thin coat of cooking oil to the bottom of the jug. This will help to prevent the ingredients from sticking.

Carefully remove the lid and transfer the soup into a suitable container.
Allow the Soup Maker to cool sufficiently before making a second batch of soup.

Warning:

A slight browning of the internal base may appear when cooking is complete. This is completely normal and can be removed during the cleaning process.
The Soup Maker is not designed to reheat soup once it is made.
The jug and the lid will get very hot during use; always take care when touching these components and use the handle when moving the jug.

Blend Program

The Soup Maker can also be used to blend ingredients using the ‘Blend ‘programme. When using this programme, the heater function will not operate, allowing the ingredients to be blended to make smoothies and dressings. It can also be used to obtain the desired consistency after other pre-set programmes have operated. The process ends automatically after 3 minutes.

Do not add the ingredients after blending if Smooth function and Chunky Soup function is required as it will cause damage on the heating plate.
lf the alarm sounds, unplug the Soup Maker, clean the sensor and reduce the ingredients quantity before trying again.

Stainless steel filter

The strainer is used to prepare soups with dual consistency: on the one hand, the ingredients inside the stainless steel filter are smoothed and on the other, the ingredients outside the stainless steel filter are not blended. This means, for example, you can make soups that are smooth but still contain some vegetable and meat pieces.

Insert the stainless-steel filter into the blender jug. Place it onto the centre of the cutting blade.
The strainer has a finer and a coarser side. The way it is inserted will determine whether larger or smaller pieces make it into the soup.
Chop the ingredients into approx. 1 cm sized pieces and add to the blender jug. Put the ingredients so that some are inside the stainless-steel filter and some outside.
Complete above steps.
Disconnect the power cable plug from the wall outlet.
Remove the stainless-steel filter from the blender jug and stir the contents with a long spoon to ensure the pieces are evenly distributed.
Pour the contents out of the blender jug.

Boiling eggs and steam basket use
This function is used to cook the ingredients, without blending them. It is also suitable for boiling eggs.
The cooking process ends automatically after approx. 15 minutes (timer adjustable for 0-30mins).

Fill the blender jug with water to the “MIN 0.3 L” mark.
Insert the egg basket with eggs or insert steam basket with food in the blender jug. (Carefully pierce the eggs on the bottom to prevent them cracking while cooking.)
Place the lid with the measuring cup inserted on the blender jug and lock into place.

Press the ON/OFF button on the control panel. A beep will now sound and the LEDs control panel buttons will flash.

Note: We recommend manually stopping the cooking process to achieve harder or softer boiled eggs as desired. To do this, press the ON/OFF button on the control panel after 10 minutes for soft-boiled eggs. Or, wait until the cooking function finishes automatically after 15 minutes for hard-boiled eggs.
Switch the appliance off and carefully remove the lid.
