Waring WSB40 Instruction Manual - Page 3

BEFORE YOU BEGIN NOTE: Always unplug the Waring® Quik Stik Plus® Immersion Blender before cleaning the metal blade. Before using the Quik Stik Plus™, Waring suggests that you wipe the unit with a clean, damp cloth to remove any dirt or dust. Place the metal blade end of the hand blender under running water to rinse it. Dry thoroughly with a soft absorbent cloth. Read all instructions completely for detailed operating procedures. INTENDED USE The Waring® Quik Stik Plus® Immersion Blender is intended for use in restaurants, large kitchens and small companies when mixing and liquefying. You can operate directly in the pot to mix everything from soups, stews, creams and salad dressings to pancake mixes, pastes, sauces, mayonnaise and much, much more. For nurseries or for special diets use the Quik Stik Plus® to prepare purées of vegetables, porridge, fruit creams, etc. OPERATION: 1. Plug unit into outlet. 2. Plunge the Immersion Blender into the pot. DO NOT SUBMERGE MORE THAN 3/4 OF THE SHAFT LENGTH. 3. The Immersion Blender has 2 switches. The safety switch is located on the top of the handle and the power trigger switch is located on the inner handle. To start unit, press the safety switch and the power trigger switch simultaneously. The safety switch will need to be pressed only once to start the unit. You do not need to hold down the safety switch for the unit to continue running; the unit will remain on as long as the power trigger switch is depressed. 4. Select the desired speed, Hi or Low, by using the switch on the top handle. 5. Angle the Immersion Blender slightly and start to stir only when the blade is immersed. Keep the blade off the bottom of the pot so that ingredients will not be sucked up by the vortex action. 6. Remove the Immersion Blender from the pot only after blender has come to a complete stop. NOTE: Always unplug Immersion Blender after each use. Keep the appliance out of reach of children. • To prevent splattering, be careful never to remove the Immersion Blender from liquid while in operation. • When a recipe calls for ice, use crushed ice (not whole cubes) for best results. 4 NOTE: If a piece of food becomes lodged in the Protective Guard surrounding the metal blade, follow the safety instructions noted below: 1. Release the power button and unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. 2. Once the power source has been disconnected, use a spatula to carefully remove the food lodged in the blade guard. Avoid injury. The blade is sharp. Do not use your fingers to remove lodged objects. 3. After the lodged food has been removed, plug the unit back into its power supply and continue processing.
