Smooth: heat + mix
The smooth-function is perfect for a soup with a smooth consistency.
The program lasts for approximately 20 minutes. The program ensures the
ingredients are blended to the right consistency and gently cooked at the
right temperature.
At first the appliance will start heating, en the vegetables will be cooked.
After 11 minutes the soup maker mixes the ingredients briefly. After this the
soup will boil. After 15 minutes the appliance will mix the soup briefly for a
second time. After 18 minutes the soup will by mixed to a smooth consistency.
When the program is ended all the lights will blink and you can hear an end
signal.
Chunky: heat
The chunky-function is perfect for soups requiring a chunkier consistency. For
chunky soup there is no blending process, just heating. It is therefore
recommended that you cut the vegetables into the desired size. The program
lasts for approximately 30 minutes. The program ensures the ingredients are
heated for longer to ensure the ingredients are fully cooked. When the program
is ended all the lights will blink en you can hear an end signal. If you are
not satisfied with the consistency of your soup; you can use the blend-
function afterwards.
Blend: mix
You can also use the appliance as a blender. Select the program “Blend” and
confirm
with the start button. Keep pressing the start button until you are satisfied
with the consistency. The appliance will only blend, it will not heat. We
recommend to use the blend-function for no longer than 20 sec.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I make cold soups like Gazpacho in my soup maker?
Yes. First cook the soup using the chunky or smooth setting. Then simply let
the soup
cool or refrigerate.
The soup maker stops working
The appliance has a safety thermostat. When the appliance is overheated it
stops wor-king. This can happen when you use the soup maker multiple times in
a row. If this problem occurs, remove the food and allow the appliance to cool
for half an hour. It should now work correctly.
If the blend function is used continuously for more than 20 sec., the safety
will turn off the appliance. When this happens wait for 10 seconds before
reusing the blend function.
What if food burns on the base of the appliance?
Always make sure you add water or broth to the ingredients. When the food is
not in direct contact with the heating on the base it will not burn.
Does the appliance work when I remove the lid?
No. Removing the lid cuts the power to the unit for maximum safety. The
appliance will only work when you have placed the lid securely in place. If
you remove the lid during a program, you will need to restart the program. The
program will restart from the beginning.
Can I use the appliance to make anything other than soup?
Yes. The soup maker can also be used to make delicious smoothies, compote,
sauces, and milkshakes.
Can I add meat in the soup maker?
Yes. Only use the Chunky-function. The meat will be cooked together with the
vegetables. Mince the meat in small pieces, max. 2 by 2 cm.
What is the capacity of the soup maker?
The maximum capacity you can make in one cycle is 1,6 l. The min. and max.
capacity are indicated on the inside of the jug. Do not fill the soup maker
above the max. line. Otherwise the overfill sensor will go into safety and cut
the power.
Can I change the times on the settings smooth and chunky?
No. These times are preset and should give the best results.
