IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
WHEN USING ANY ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
- Read all instructions carefully before using the appliance.
- This appliance is intended for household use only. It is not suitable for commercial use such as staff kitchen areas and other working environments.
- Ensure that the appliance is always placed on a firm and flat surface, away from the edge of the worktop. Do not place the appliance onto a metal tray or metal surface whilst in use. Do not place the appliance on, or near, a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven. Do not operate the appliance with wet hands or bare feet.
- Keep the appliance and mains cable away from the edges of worktops and out of reach of children. Route the mains cable so it does not overhang, and cannot be tripped over or caught.
- Do not let the mains cable run across an open space, such as between a low power socket and a table, or across any hot area, such as a cooker. Heat may damage the mains cable.
- The connections on both sides of the mains cable (the appliance and power socket) should never be strained. If the mains cable is damaged it must be replaced by a qualified person or service to avoid any hazards.
- Do not use the appliance in a bathroom, near water, or outdoors. Do not immerse any of the parts (appliance, mains cable, plug) in water or other liquids to protect against fire, electric shock and personal injury.

- The connector (on the bottom of the blending jug (4) or grinding mill base (11) ), and transmitter (on top of the motor unit (6) ) should always be kept dry.
- Before washing and drying, disconnect the power supply; ensure that the connector and transmitter are completely dry before you reconnect the appliance to power supply.
- Ensure the lid (2) or the grinding mill cover are securely in place and the blending jug (4) or the assembled grinding mill are correctly locked onto the motor unit (6) before operating the appliance.
- Do not switch on the appliance when it is empty. Ensure there is the at least a minimum amount of liquid or solid ingredients in the blending (4) jug or grinding mill.
- Always ensure the lid (2) is closed, or have the grinding mill securely placed and locked onto the motor unit (6) before you switch the appliance on. Do not open the lid (2) or attempt to open the grinding mill whilst the appliance is running.
- Keep hands and utensils out of the blending jug (4) while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. A scraper may be used but only when the blender is not running.

ASSEMBLY OF THE BLENDER
ASSEMBLY OF THE GRINDING MILL
USING THE BLENDER OR GRINDING MILL
Ensure that the rotary switch is turned to 0 and mains cable unplugged from the power socket.
BLENDER
- Assemble the blender and remove the lid .
- Place the ingredients into the blending jug and attach the lid .
- Remove the lid cap to pour the liquids through the opening then place it back before you start blending.
- Plug the mains cable into the power socket and turn the rotary switch to desired speed to switch the appliance on.
- If blending warm liquids or ingredients always ensure that they are cooled down before blending. Do not fill the glass jug over 1000ml mark.
- Always stabilise the blender or grinding mill by placing your hand on top of the lid when operating the appliance.
- For stirring solids or very thick liquid ingredients we recommend that you use the blender in PULSE mode to prevent the blades from becoming stuck.
GRINDING MILL
- Assemble the grinding mill and mount it onto the motor unit (6) .
- Place one hand on top of the grinding mill (7) to stabilise it and turn the rotary switch to desired speed.
- Grind until the desired consistency has been reached. Do not exceed 1 minute of grinding at one time.
- Once the grinding process is finished, detach the grinding mill from the motor unit (6) . Hold it upside down, carefully detach the grinding mill base (11) and scoop the ground ingredients out.
USEFUL TIPS
- To achieve the best results when pureeing solid ingredients, cut them into small pieces first (23cm). Place small portions into the blending jug then add one by one. DO NOT OVERLOAD.
- When mixing solid ingredients, start off with a small amount of liquid. Gradually add more of the liquid through the opening in the lid .
- Grind in intervals of 30 seconds with a 1 minute pause in between. Repeat the grinding process until you are happy with the grind consistency.
- Experimenting with the length of grinding will enable you to get your preferred grind.
- To yield the best flavour and aroma always grind fresh ingredients. To prolong the freshness store the coffee beans and the ground coffee in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
- Freshly ground spices have more flavour and are best when ground just before use. Only grind spice seeds that do not contain moisture or oil such as peppercorn, coriander seeds, mustard seeds and similar.
- Grinding extremely hard, oily, moist or sticky ingredients may damage the appliance. Grains such as corn, wheat, rye and similar may cause damage to the grinding mill cover .
- Nuts contain a lot of oil which will release during the grinding process and clog the grinding mill blades .
- NEVER Add OILS OR LIQUIDS WHILE GRINDING.
SPEED SETTINGS
- LOW SPEED- for light blending of liquid ingredients.
- HIGH SPEED – for heavy blending with solid ingredients and thicker liquids.
P – PULSE(SHORT BURSTS Of VERY HIGH Speed) – for rough
blending of solid ingredients and thick liquids, grinding and short, powerful pulse movements (the dial does not permanently engage in the PULSE setting. You have to hold the rotary switch (7) or turn it repeatedly to the PULSE setting). After using the blender or the grinding mill, always turn the switch to the 0 setting and unplug the appliance from the mains socket.
CLEANING
MOTOR UNIT
NEVER IMMERSE THE MOTOR UNIT IN WATER.
Wipe the motor unit (6) clean with a damp cloth and dry immediately with
a soft cloth to avoid scratches and water marks on the surface.
LIGHT CLEANING
BLENDER – empty the blending jug (4) and fill it half (4) way with tepid soapy water. Place the blending jug on the motor unit (6) and turn the rotary switch (7) to PULSE setting several times, each time holding for a few seconds. Empty the blending jug and rinse until clean. Dry with a soft, lint free cloth.
GRINDING MILL – wipe the grinding mill base (11) with a damp cloth or sponge, using tepid soapy water, if necessary. Remove any stuck food remnants with a small dish-washing brush.

THOROUGH CLEANING
BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN HANDLING THE BLENDING BLADE INSIDE THE BLENDING JUG. THE
BLADES ARE VERY SHARP.
Ensure that the blending jug (4) , grinding mill base (11) and
grinding mill cover (9) are completely empty before cleaning. Use a small
dish-washing brush to remove the stuck food around the blades and wash with
tepid soapy water.
