How to Use
A. Blender
1. Place the foodstuff you wish to process into the glass jar, put the lid and close securely.
2. Place the measuring cap into the hole of the lid and turn clockwise to lock and start blending.

SPEED SETTING

1. Low : for light usage of liquids
2. High : for more solid consistency – for mixing liquids and solid foodstuffs
3. M (Pulse setting): for ice crushing & short, powerful impulse movements (The switch does not permanently engage in
the 'M' setting. You have to hold the switch or turn it repeatedly.)
B. Grinder
1. Place the dry foodstuff (e.g. coffee bean, almonds etc.) into the grinder base.
2. Put the cover, close it securely and start milling.

USEFUL TIPS:

1. All parts of the blender must be thoroughly cleaned before using.
2. To achieve the best results, place small portions (2-3cm) into the glass jar one by one instead of placing a large
quantity at once.
3. When mixing solid ingredients start with a small amount of liquid. Gradually add more through the opening in the lid,
hold the top when operating this device.
4. For stirring solid or thick liquid ingredients we recommend that you use the blender in pulse mode to prevent the
blades from becoming stuck.
