Caution
• For easier cleaning, liquids or ingredients should
not overlap the green line of the ActiveBlade
shaft.
• If using the appliance to purée hot food in a
saucepan or pot, remove the saucepan or pot
from the heat source and ensure the liquid is not
boiling. Allow hot food to cool slightly to avoid
risk of scalding.
• Do not let the hand blender sit in a hot pan on the
cooktop when not in use.
• Do not scratch the ActiveBlade Shaft over the
bottom of pans and pots.
Recipe Example: Mayonnaise
1.25 cups / 250 g oil (e.g. sunflower oil),
1 egg and 1 extra egg yolk,
1–2 tbsp. vinegar,
Salt and pepper to taste
• Place all ingredients (at room temperature) into
the beaker in the order as above.
• Place the hand blender at the bottom of the
beaker. Blend at maximum speed until the oil
starts emulsifying.
• With the hand blender still running, slowly raise
the shaft to the top of the mixture and back down
to incorporate the rest of the oil.
NOTE: Processing time: approx. 1 minute for
salads and up to 2 minutes for a thicker
mayonnaise (e.g. for dip).
Whisk Accessory (B)
Use the whisk only for whipping cream, beating egg
whites, making sponge cakes and ready-mix
desserts.
Assembly and Operation
• Attach the whisk (8b) to the gearbox (8a).
• Align the motor part with the assembled whisk
attachment and push the pieces together until
they click.
• After use, unplug and press the release buttons
to detach the motor part. Then pull the whisk out
of the gearbox.
Tips for Best Results
• Move the whisk clockwise while holding it at a
slight incline.
• To prevent splattering, start slowly and use the
whisk attachment in deep containers or pans.
• Place the whisk in a bowl and only then switch
the appliance on.
• Always ensure the whisk and mixing bowl are
completely clean and free of fat before whisking
egg whites. Only whip up to 4 egg whites.
Recipe Example: Whipped Cream
1.8 cups / 400 ml chilled cream (min. 30% fat
content, 4 - 8 °C) / 39,2 - 46,4 F)
• Start with low speed (light pressure on the
switch) and increase the speed (more pressure
on switch) while whipping.
• Always use fresh chilled cream to achieve greater
and more stable volume when whisking.

Puree Accessory (C)
The puree accessory can be used to mash cooked
vegetables and fruits such as potatoes, sweet
potatoes, tomatoes, plums and apples.
Before Use
• Do not mash hard or uncooked food, as this may
damage the unit.
• Peel and remove any stones or hard parts; cook
and drain then mash the fruit/vegetable.
Assembly and Operation
• Fit the gearbox (9a) to the shaft (9b) by turning in
a clockwise direction until it locks into place.
• Turn the puree accessory upside down and fit the
paddle (9c) over the central hub and turn
counter- clockwise to locate. (If the gearbox is
not fitted properly, then the paddle will not
secure in place).
• Align the assembled puree accessory with the
motor body part and click the two parts together.
Plug in.
• Dip the puree accessory into the ingredients and
switch on the appliance.
• Using a gentle up and down motion, move the
puree accessory through the ingredients until the
desired texture is achieved.
• Release the Smart Speed switch and ensure the
puree accessory has completely stopped turning
before removing it from the food.
• After use, unplug the appliance. Remove the
paddle (9c) by turning clockwise.
• Press the release buttons to detach the puree
accessory from the motor part. Separate the
gearbox from the shaft by turning counter-
clockwise.
Caution
• Never use the puree accessory in a saucepan
over direct heat.
• Always remove the saucepan from the heat and
allow to cool slightly.
• Sit the saucepan or bowl on a stable, flat surface,
and support it with your free hand.
• Do not tap the puree accessory on the side of the
cooking vessel during or after use. Use a spatula
to scrape excess food away.
• For best results when mashing never fill a
saucepan or bowl more than half full with food.
• Do not process more than one batch without
interruption.
• Let the appliance cool down for 4 minutes before
you continue processing.
Recipe Example: Mashed Potatoes
2.2 lbs / 1 kg cooked potatoes
7 fl. oz. / 200 ml warm milk
• Place the potatoes in a bowl and mash for 30
seconds (3/4 way on the Smart Speed switch)
• Add the milk. Resume mashing for another 30
seconds.
