The handblender attachment can be used
in the practical mixing/measuring beaker,
but you can operate the Braun hand-
blender attachment just as well in any
bowl, pan or other container too.
Should you want to blend directly in the
saucepan while cooking, take the pan
from the stove first and allow to cool to
protect your handblender attachment
from overheating. Never use your hand-
blender attachment in very hot or boiling
ingredients. To avoid splashing, insert the
handblender attachment into the vessel
first, and then switch the appliance on.
Keep the switch pressed down as long as
you operate your handblender attach-
ment. Turn appliance off first by releasing
the switch when you are finished.
Important: The mixing/measuring beaker
may be used only with the handblender
attachment for processing smaller quan-
tities. It should not be used with a whisk.
Do not place the mixing/measuring beaker
into a microwave oven.

hard food, such as nutmeg, chocolate
and coffee beans.
• When chopping meat, ensure that all
bones, tendons and gristles are re-
moved.

can also be used, e.g. for cheese,
onions, parsley, dried fruits, tomatoes,
carrots, apples etc.
