Tips: � Liquid ingredients (for example oil for making mayonnaise) can be poured into the blender jar through the hole in the stopper which has been put in the lid upside down (fig. 36). � The opening in the lid can be used to add ingredients while the appliance is running. To do so, unscrew the stopper and remove it from the lid (fig. 37-38). � The longer you let the appliance run, the finer the blending result will usually be. � It may be necessary to switch off the appliance from time to time to remove pieces of food sticking to the inside of the blender jar. - Switch off the appliance and unplug it; - Remove the stopper and the lid; - Remove pieces sticking to the inside of the blender jar with a soft spatula. Keep the spatula at a safe distance from the knives (approximately 2 cm). Cleaning � Always unplug the appliance before you start cleaning the motor unit. � You can clean the motor unit with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the motor unit in water and do not rinse it either. � Always clean the parts that have come into contact with food in hot water with washing-up liquid immediately after use. � Clean the blade, the knife unit of the blender and the slicing disc very carefully. The cutting edges are very sharp! � Make sure that the cutting edges of the blade and the slicing disc do not come into contact with hard objects: this could cause them to become blunt.

� Certain ingredients may cause discolorations on the surface of the accessories. This does not have a negative effect; the discolorations usually disappear after some time. � Wrap the (excess) mains cord around the reel on the back of the appliance (fig. 39).
