Before using the liquidiser for the first time, 

carefully wash and rinse the pusher (A), the 

lid (C), the filter (F), the filter support (G) and 

the pulp container (J). To do this, take the 

liquidiser apart as follows:

1.

The appliance must be unplugged from 

the mains and the switch turned to 0.

2.  

Remove the pusher (A) from the lid.

3.  

Take hold of the bottom part of the 

safety closures (D) and pull them 

sideways until you see that they have 

come out of the clips on the lid (C) (Fig 

1). Lift up the lid (C) and take out the 

filter (F) and the filter support (G), pulling 

them upwards (Fig 2). To remove the 

pulp container (J), pull it to one side.

To assemble the liquidiser again, proceed in 

reverse order.

Assembling the lid: 

To assemble the lid, firstly insert the tabs on 

the safety closures (D) in the lid, then push 

the safety closures (D) towards the liquidiser 

until you hear a click 

(Fig 3)

. 

IMPORTANT:

Make user both safety closures (D) have 

closed properly.

Important:

 The appliance has a safety 

device to block the functioning of the 

appliance if the lid is not properly closed. 

Do not use this device as an On/Off 

switch.
