****SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: the safety instructions are an integral part of the appliance.
For your own safety, please read them carefully before using it for the first time.

• Do not exceed the maximum capacity (1.2 L, 1.8 L or 2 L, depending on the model).
• Do not run the blender if the lid is not secured properly or if the lid seal and blades are not assembled correctly.
• Do not put your fingers or anything other than the spatula included with the product, in the jug while the blender is operating.
• If the blades get stuck, always disconnect the blender before removing the ingredients.
• Always disconnect the blender (i) if it is left unattended, (ii) before mounting, dismounting or cleaning, (iii) before changing the attachments and (iv) when you need to go near any moving parts.
• All surfaces in contact with food must be cleaned with soapy water or washing-up liquid (see further details under CLEANING).
• Special precautions must be taken when handling the blades, when emptying the jug and during cleaning. There is a risk of injury if the blender is used incorrectly.
• Never immerse the blender in water or other liquids in order to avoid the risk of electrocution.
• Do not place the blender on or near a gas burner or hot plate, or in a hot oven.
• This appliance is intended solely for use in the home.
• Do not use the blender outside.
• Children must not play with the blender. The blender must not be used by children. Keep the blender and its cord out of reach of children.
• The blender can be used by people whose physical, sensory or mental capacities are reduced, or by people who have no experience or knowledge of the appliance, provided they are properly supervised or have been instructed  beforehand on using the blender safely and they understand the risks involved.
• Use of the appliance in the following cases is not covered by the warranty: in staff kitchen areas in stores, offices and other working environments, in farms, by guests in hotels, motels, bed & breakfasts, guest houses and other  residential environments.

RISK OF BURNS

• DO NOT process hot ingredients (solid or liquid) in the BlendCups or mill attachment, as blending hot foods in a lidded jug can lead to a build-up of pressure, forcing out scalding steam or liquids.
• Processing hot foods in the main jug: blending hot ingredients at high speed can lead to a build-up of pressure, forcing out scalding steam or liquids. Always take care when pouring in a hot liquid, as it may suddenly boil up and  escape from the jug.
• Never introduce hot ingredients (solid or liquid) if they are over 60 °C in temperature. Always make sure the lid is firmly fitted but the measuring cap is only loosely positioned, to allow any steam to escape. Always use the SOUP  programme or start at a low speed and gradually increase it. Never use the PULSE button.

MAINS CONNECTION

• Your appliance must be connected to an earthed socket with the original power cord.
• Check that the voltage indicated on its identification plate corresponds to the voltage of your mains supply.
• Never allow the power cord to dangle over the edge of your worktop or counter, and make sure that it does not come into contact with hot surfaces.

AFTER-SALES SERVICE

• If the power cord has been damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a Magimix-approved service agent or a similarly qualified person, in order to avoid all risks.
• The use of parts that are not recommended or sold by Magimix may result in injury, fire or electric shock.

BLENDER CAPACITIES

To make the most of your appliance, please follow the recommendations below:

A blender is not designed to knead dough or mash potatoes.
Whatever the attachment or recipe, the blender must not be used continuously for more than 60 seconds.

USING YOUR BLENDER

Assemble the base

Place the seal on the rim of
the blade assembly, making
sure it is completely flat.| Position the blade
assembly on the
underside of the jug.| Screw the holder tightly
onto the blender jug.

Assemble the jug

Place the jug on the
motor unit.| Add ingredients. Do not
exceed the maximum level
(1.2 L, 1.8 L or 2 L
depending on model)| Push lid firmly into
place. Loosely position
the cap.

Blend

Select a speed or
programme.
Press AUTO.| If necessary, use the
spatula to help with the
mixing.| Wait until the blades
have completely
stopped moving before
removing the lid.

ADVICE

Ice/frozen or sticky ingredients such as honey, banana and avocado
Fresh fruit and vegetables except for banana and avocado
Leaves, herbs such as spinach and fresh herbs
Hard or dry ingredients such as cereals, nuts and carrots
Liquids such as water, milk and fruit juice

For the best possible result:

• Cut the food into chunks measuring approx. 2cm.
• Coarsely chop the herbs or leaves before adding them.
• Always add the ingredients in the order specified in the recipe.
• When processing thick mixtures, always start at a low speed, otherwise the food will stick to the sides and not come into contact with the blades. If necessary, add a little liquid and use the spatula.
• To add ingredients, either remove the measuring cap or stop the machine and remove the lid.
• Never run your blender if the jug is empty. To process dry ingredients such as nuts and spices, we recommend using the mill attachment, which has a specially designed blade assembly.
  ****Never fill above the MAX mark.
  Never add solid or liquid ingredients if they are above 60°C in temperature.

Tips

• Hot soups: wait for the ingredients to cool to 60°C (tasting temperature) before blending. Make sure that the measuring cap is only loosely positioned on the lid, to allow any steam to escape. Either use the SOUP programme or start at a low speed and gradually increase it. Never use the PULSE button.
• Crushed ice: the ICE function reduces ice cubes to a fine, snow-like powder. If you want more coarsely crushed ice, put a small number of ice cubes (100/150g max.) in the jug and use the PULSE button.
• To fold ingredients into a mixture without chopping them (e.g. chocolate chips in a cake mixture), add them at the end and run your blender for a further 5-10 seconds at a slow speed (0.5).
• Using frozen fruit: when fruit comes out of the freezer it sometimes forms a solid block. Break this block into cubes measuring approx. 2cm before putting in the jug, to avoid damaging your blender.
• To rescue a lumpy sauce, blend it for 15s at Speed 3.

Automatic overload failsafe
Your appliance is fitted with a safety system that cuts the motor if it is overloaded or has been running for too long. The indicator light then starts to flash.

• Turn the selector to 0 and unplug your appliance.
• Wait for about 30 minutes before restarting your blender.
• Reduce the amount of ingredients in the jug and/or add some liquid.

MILL ATTACHMENT

Place the seal on the blade
assembly, making sure it is
completely flat.| Put the ingredients in the
mill attachment. Position the
blade assembly on the mill
attachment.| Screw the holder tightly
onto the mill attachment.

Assemble the jug

Place the upright mill
attachment on the motorunit.| Press down with your
hand to check that it
is ready to run.| \Select a speed and
press AUTO.

• Instant crumble: crush digestives or butter biscuits and use on fruit salad/ice cream.
• Icing sugar: pour in 200g caster sugar. Blend for 1 min at Speed 4. For an even finer consistency, blend for a further minute.
• Cake icing: pour 200g icing sugar into the jug with 1 egg white. Blend for 20 s at Speed 1.

****Never blend hot liquids. The blade assembly can be extremely hot after use.

on the lid.

Tips and advice

• Run at a low speed for the first few seconds, until all the ingredients are caught up in the blades, then gradually increase the speed.

• Never run the blender continuously for more than 1 minute, otherwise the ingredients may heat up and pressure may build up inside the cup.

• If blending is difficult, reduce either the speed or the amount being processed.
  If the mixture is thick, add some liquid (without going above the MAX mark).

• Dense or sticky (e.g. nut-based) preparations tend to stick to the sides. If this happens, switch the blender off, wait until the blades have come to a complete standstill and shake the cup downwards to send the ingredients back  towards the blades.

• The base of the cup is shaped to fit the cupholder in your vehicle.

Slot the citrus press onto
the lid.| Turn until it locks into
place.| Press then remove.

CLEANING

Automatic cleaning programme
As soon as you have finished using your appliance, fill the jug up halfway with warm water + a few drops of washing-up liquid. Close the lid tightly, AUTO select the CLEAN programme and press AUTO.
Thorough cleaning

• Unplug the appliance and remove all the parts, not forgetting the seals.
• All the parts are dishwasher safe (except motor unit): use the short cycle and place all the small parts on the upper rack. However, we recommend doing so sparingly. Today’s washing products could attack your appliance and  damage it in the long run. For the best long-term results we recommend washing the lid and seals by hand.
• Never leave the blade assembly to soak, and check that the blades move freely before reassembling.
• Clean the base with a damp cloth.

Unscrew the holder with
the aid of the spatula.| The top of the measuring
cap can be removed.| Check that the locking
pins slide smoothly, and
clean them if necessary.

Electrical and electronic goods at the end of their lifetime
It is against European law to treat electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) as regular household waste. Your appliance contains many materials that can be recovered or recycled. It should be taken to a WEEE collection point. For more details about collection points, please contact your local council or your household waste recycling centre. You can also take your appliance to an electrical goods store.
