Setting the speed
When activating switch , the processing speed
corresponds to the setting of variable speed regulator
. The higher the setting, the faster the chopping
results.
However, maximum processing speed can only be
achieved by pressing the turbo switch
. You may
also use the turbo switch for instant powerful pulses
without having to manipulate the speed regulator.
Depending on the application, we recommend the
following speed settings:
Handblender 1...turbo
Chopper 1...turbo
Whisk 3...9
How to operate your handblender
The handblender is perfectly suited for preparing
dips, sauces, soups, mayonnaise and baby food as
well as for mixing drinks and milkshakes.
1. Insert the motor part into the blender shaft
until it locks.
2. Introduce the handblender in the vessel, then
press the on/off switch or the on/off turbo
switch .
3. To release the blender shaft after use, press
buttons and pull it off.
You can operate the handblender in the measuring
beaker
, and just as well in any other vessel. When
blending directly in the saucepan while cooking, take
the pan from the stove first to protect your hand-
blender from overheating.
How to operate your whisk
Use the whisk only for whipping cream, beating egg
whites and mixing sponges and ready-mix desserts.
1. Insert the whisk into the whisk gear box , then
insert the motor part into the gear box until it
locks.
2. Place the whisk in a vessel and only then, press
switch to operate it.
3. To release, press buttons and pull off the gear
box. Then pull the whisk out of the gear box.
For best results:
• Do not use the beaker
, but a wider bowl.

inclined.

(min. 30 % fat content, 4–8 °C).
