THE WHOLE ARM CAN THEN BE LIFTED OFF. CLEANING Use a soft sponge with hot water and washing-up liquid to clean the attachments. If using a dishwasher, select a short, low temperature programme. To clean the bases of the stainless steel blade and the egg whisk, use the short side of the spatula. The whole egg whisk comes apart for easy cleaning. The blade, spindle and top should then be re-assembled and stored together in the storage box. To clean the disc, carefully twist off the disc support, keeping a firm hold of the disc. Clean the citrus press immediately after use with hot water and washingup liquid to prevent drying pulp sticking to it. WARNING Always handle the highly sharpened stainless steel blade and discs with care. 9 HOW TO WORK THE MAGIMIX WARNING · The machine is fitted with a double safety mechanism. If the bowl and lid are not correctly locked into position the machine will not start. · If you cannot twist the lid to close it it means that the bowl is not in the correct position. Remove the lid and, making sure the bowl is fitted correctly onto the base, turn it anti-clockwise as far as it will go. · Never remove the lid without having first pressed the " off " switch. · A temperature control circuit breaker is included in the machine and motor will automatically stop if it has been running for too long or if the bowl is too full. · If this happens press the " stop " switch and leave for 15-30 minutes. As soon as the motor has cooled to a safe temperature it will operate normally. WHEN NOT IN USE ALWAYS LEAVE THE LID IN THE UNLOCKED POSITION, SWITCH OFF THE POWER AT THE MAINS, AND UNPLUG. OFF : When the machine is " on " press this switch to stop the motor running. ON : Press this switch for continuous action. Use when mincing, cutting and thoroughly mixing. [. . . ] Simply position the Mini-Bowl above the vegetables in the main bowl. (NB: Mini Plus only) 12 FUNDAMENTAL RULES Hold the blade when tipping out the contents of the bowl. Use the spatula to scrape out the bottom and the sides of the bowl. WARNING · The "smooth" edge of the mini-bowl blade may become blunt if it frequently comes into contact with certain herbs and hard foodstuffs such as hazelnuts. · If this happens, simply sharpen this edge with a stone. · Never sharpen the serrated edge of the large blade. IMPORTANT To wash the bowl, the lid and the Mini-Bowl, we recommend that you use a soft sponge with hot water and washing-up liquid, as the detergents used in dishwashers are highly corrosive.
