Ensure the immersion blender shaft is assembled to the motor base as detailed in
the INSTALLING THE ATTACHMENTS section.
1. Place food to be processed in a mixing bowl or the provided measuring jar. The
container should only be ½ full or less when blending liquids or when making a puree
of fruit and/or vegetables to prevent food from overflowing.
Important: Always ensure motor base and immersion blender shaft are properly
assembled and that the power cord is not damaged before use.
2. Plug in and start processing at low speed and increasing to high by turning the
speed control dial at the top of the motor base.
Note: If selecting a higher speed, it is recommended that you start on low speed
and then increase to high speed to avoid splattering and over processing.
3. Immerse the blender as deeply as possible into the jar or bowl and press the ON|OFF
button to turn the immersion blender on.
4. Blend the ingredients by moving the appliance up and down and in a circular motion.
5. After you have completed blending, release the ON|OFF button to stop the motor
and unplug the appliance.
Important: The continuous operating time must be less than 30 seconds. Never
blend hot oil, fat or meat.
6. Ensure the motor has completely stopped before lifting the immersion blender out
of the jar. If the blades get blocked, first stop and unplug before clearing.
7. After processing, unplug and disassemble the immersion blender from the motor
base by turning the motor base counterclockwise and clean the attachment.

• The immersion blender blends foods and liquids rapidly, therefore it is easy to
over process. Stop the motor and check food throughout the operation to avoid
over processing.
• When pureeing and blending, cut food into uniform sizes. This will ensure
smooth and consistent results.
• Allow hot food to cool slightly before blending.
• Ensure the body of the appliance and power cord are kept away from any
heat source.
