You can use the steamer basket to cook the food you want to keep in pieces.
Place the ultrablade knife in the bowl, add the ingredients you want to blend according to the recipe (carrots, potatoes, onion, ...) but make sure the vegetables at the bottom of the bowl do not obstruct fitting the steamer basket. Add the ingredients you wish to keep in pieces (bacon, chorizo, peas...) in the steamer basket. Add liquid to the bowl (water, stock,...) but without exceeding the maximum level.

You can use a baking paper which covers the bottom and the inner walls of the basket, to make recipes such as omelets, frittata, fish, white meats... with the steam program.

The sharp blade is ideal for chopping vegetables, herbs, meat, fish, etc., and for mixing soups or compotes.
The serrated blade is ideal for kneading heavy or yeast dough and crushing nuts or ice cubes.

The "low steam" setting allows a maximum amount of condensation to be released and it is therefore recommended to prepare dishes and sauces with a better consistency (risotto, creamy puddings, sauces, etc.).


The "high steam" setting allows a maximum amount of heat and steam to build up in the bowl for all types of steam cooking (soups, etc.).
This setting also prevents splashing during mixing.


When the vapour plug is locked onto the lid, the pictogram in front of you represents the currently selected setting.

This is normal. Speed 1 and speed 2 have an auto-pulse feature so the motor operates on and off cycles.

Avoid using the spatula to scrape off dough stuck to the blade.
Use a wooden spoon instead; the spatula should be used to empty the bowl after removing the blade.

You can also use the manual mode by setting the temperature to 120°C (248°F) and the cooking time according to the quantity and type of ingredients used.
Reduce the size of the pieces.

Please refer to the table (§ First Use) in the user manual.
If in doubt about which blade to use, use the one for kneading/crushing.
Never use the whisk with heavy dough (bread dough, etc.).

You can increase the quantities, as long as you stick to the maximum quantities specified in the user manual (see table in the “First Use” section).
Be careful with automatic programs, especially the “Soup” programs: if you exceed the maximum level of 2,5L (85 oz), you risk having hot soup spatter or overflow.

No, there is a risk of splashing or overflows.
NB: Do not try to make jam or milk-based preparations, the temperature between 135 and 150°C is much too high.

In order to reduce discolouration, rub the stained areas with a cloth or a paper towel dipped in cooking oil, then clean as usual.
It is essential to clean immediately after use to avoid any staining.

To remove white traces or "rainbow" coloration from the bottom of the bowl, follow these 3 steps:
• Pour 10 cl of white vinegar into the bowl with the spindle and leave it for 1 hour.
• Empty the bowl and wipe the inside with a sponge.
• Rinse the bowl several times with clean water.

The bowl, the accessories, the steamer basket and all the parts of the lid can be put in the dishwasher. It is not recommended to put the spindle as well as the bowl seal into the dishwasher.

It is advisable to clean the tools immediately after staining appears, you can use lemon juice.
You can also leave the accessory in sunlight for a few hours.

Use a well wrung out sponge, then wipe with a dry cloth.
Warning: do not use the abrasive side of the sponge.

For hygiene reasons, it is advisable to dismantle the lid and clean the separate parts well with hot water and washing up liquid after each use.

To make cleaning easier:
• After emptying the basin, position the whisk in the bowl.
• Pour in 0,7L of water (24 oz) and a few drops of dishwashing liquid.
• Close the lid with the steam regulator stopper.
• Program the appliance as follows: Speed 7 / 100°C (212°F) / 3 mins then press "Start".

When the appliance switches to keep-warm mode (beep sound), turn it off and finish cleaning in the sink.

(This works for the 4 accessories).

1. Let it soak for 1 hour (water + dishwashing liquid).
2. Scrape off the deposit using a wooden spatula or spoon.
3. After emptying the bowl, scrub the bottom using the abrasive side of a sponge.
4. If there are still traces of the stain, scour with steel wool.

Instead of dishwashing liquid, you can also use lemon juice, white vinegar or a dishwashing tablet dissolved in water (leave to work as long as needed).

Yes, we recommend that you dry the bowl before using it in the appliance.

Process some lemons or use the steam program (Steam prog + 1L of water (34 oz) + 30 mins + a few drops of lemon juice).

To facilitate cleaning (pre-cleaning), place the whisk in the empty bowl, pour 0.7l of water, a few drops of dishwashing liquid, lock the lid with the cap, then start the robot on speed 7 at 100°C for 3 minutes. When the appliance is in warm mode (beep sound), stop it and finish cleaning the mixer under the tap. (This applies to all 4 accessories).

For safety reasons, it is recommended to always store the Ultrablade chopping knife in the bowl when not using the robot (sharpened blades). The other accessories can be stored in a drawer or cupboard.
CAUTION: The kneading/crushing knife is also sharp.

To whisk egg whites, you must use the lid without the stopper and use the whisk attachment.
Also, it is important that the bowl is completely clean with no traces of fat or oil.
CAUTION: Do not exceed Speed 7.

You can cool the bowl before making the recipe by crushing 10 ice cubes using "pulse" with the kneading/grinding blade, then empty the bowl, wipe it dry and immediately make the sorbet recipe.

The recipes were tested with ingredients at room temperature (20°C), It is possible that some recipes require 2 to 3 minutes of additional cooking if the ingredients (milk, eggs…) are from the refrigerator.

These are called "witness lines", where plastic material is left over after the molding process. There is no risk of cracks; you can continue to use your lid without worry.

This is a temporary phenomenon that won't affect the lifespan of your appliance.
It will fade or disappear once the detachable spindle has been used and cleaned a few times (please refer to the “Cleaning the Appliance” section).

The heating resistor does not cover the entire bowl bottom surface.
There is a hot zone on the left (when positioned in front of the appliance), and a less hot zone on the right.

Sometimes the ingredients stick slightly to the bottom of the bowl, so we recommend stirring as soon as you add the food and constantly.

Don't worry, like most LCD screens, the one on your appliance is sensitive to static electricity. As a result, traces of light can appear when you wipe your screen with a cloth for example. These luminous traces disappear after a few moments. This is a normal phenomenon that does not affect the operation or service life of your appliance.

You may have positioned and locked the lid on the bowl.
Browning mode must be done without lid, please unlock the lid to continue your preparation.
