Setting the speed

When activating the variable speed button (2), the processing speed corresponds to the setting of the variable speed regulator. The higher the setting, the faster the chopping results. You can adjust the speed conveniently during operation by turning the speed regulator using your thumb or index finger.  Maximum processing speed is achieved by pressing the turbo button (3). You may also use the turbo button for instant powerful pulses without having to manipulate the speed regulator.

Hand blender (A)

The hand blender is perfectly suited for preparing dips, sauces, soups, mayonnaise and baby food as well as for mixing drinks and milkshakes. For best blending results use the highest speed.

• Click the motor part (4) into the blender shaft (6).
• Position the hand blender deep in a beaker or bowl. Then switch the appliance on as described above.
• After use unplug and press the release buttons (5) to detach the motor part.
• When blending directly in the saucepan while cooking, remove the pan from the stove first to avoid splashing the boiling liquid (risk of scalding).

Recipe example: Mayonnaise

• 250 g oil (e.g. sunflower oil),
• 1 egg and 1 extra egg yolk,
• 1–2 tbsp. vinegar (approx. 15 g),
• salt and pepper to taste

Place all ingredients (at room temperature) into the beaker in the order mentioned above. Place the hand blender on the bottom of the beaker. Operate the hand blender at maximum speed, keep it in this position until the oil starts emulsifying. Then without switching off slowly raise the shaft to the top of the mixture and back down to incorporate the rest of the oil. Processing time: from 1 minute (for salad) up to 2 minutes for more stiffness (e.g. for dip).

Whisk (A)

Use the whisk only for whipping cream, beating egg whites and mixing sponges and ready-mix desserts.

• Insert the whisk (7b) into the whisk gearbox (7a) then click the motor part (4) into the gearbox.
• Place the whisk in a bowl and only then switch the appliance on.
• After use, unplug and press the release buttons (5) to detach the motor part. Then pull the whisk out of the gearbox.

Tips for best results

• Use a medium-sized bowl.
• Move the whisk clockwise, holding it slightly inclined.
• Whipped cream (max. 400 ml chilled cream, min. 30% fat content, 4–8 °C): Start with low speed and increase the speed (by turning the speed regulator) while whipping.
• Beaten egg whites (max. 4 eggs): Start with a medium speed and increase the speed (by turning the speed regulator) while whipping.

Choppers (B)

• The choppers (9,10) are perfectly suited for chopping meat, hard cheese, onions, herbs, garlic, carrots, nuts, almonds etc. Always chop hard food at full speed (e.g. parmesan, chocolate). For best results see processing tables (C,D).
• Maximum operation time for the «hc» chopper: 2 minutes (large amounts of wet ingredients) / 30 seconds (dry or hard ingredients or amounts < 100g / 100 ml). Immediately stop processing when motor speed decreases and/or strong vibrations occur.

Before chopping …

• Pre-cut meat, cheese, onions, carrots.
• Remove stems from herbs and shell nuts.
• Remove bones, tendons and gristles from meat.
• Always make sure that the anti-slip ring is attached to the bowl.

Caution: The blade is very sharp! Always hold it by the upper plastic part and handle it carefully.

1. Carefully remove the protective cover from the blade.
2. Place the blade on the centre pin of the bowl, push it down and give it a turn so that it locks.
3. Fill the chopper bowl with food and put on the lid.
4. Click the motor part onto the lid.
5. Press button (2) or (3) to operate the chopper. During processing, hold the motor part with one hand and the bowl with the other.
6. After use, unplug and press the release buttons (5) to detach the motor part.
7. Remove the lid.
8. Carefully take out the blade before removing the processed food. To remove the blade, slightly turn and pull off.

Recipe example: Vanilla-Honey-Prunes (as a pancake stuffing or spread):

• Fill the «hc» chopper bowl with 50 g prunes and 70 g creamy honey.
• Chop 4 seconds at maximum speed
• Add 10 ml water (vanilla-flavoured).
• Resume chopping for another 1.5 seconds.

Care and Cleaning (E)

• Clean the motor part (4) and the whisk gear box (7a) with a damp cloth only. The lid (10a) can be cleaned under running water, but do not immerse in water, nor clean it in a dishwasher. All other parts can be cleaned in a dishwasher.
