Cuisinart CSB-55 - Manual (Page 6)

Use Speeds 1 and 2 for whipping with the whipping disc.
The Whipping attachment is specially designed to add air and volume to
mixtures. Perfect for aerating egg whites and cream, this attachment adds
air that makes mixtures light, frothy and thick.
When using this attachment, make sure there is extra room in the mixing
container for the recipe to grow! For most recipes such as mayonnaise,
beaten egg whites and whipped cream, hold the end of the SmartStick™
Hand Blender in the bottom of the container and turn it on for about
15 seconds. Then continue to process, gently lifting the Hand Blender
almost to the top of the liquid until the mixture is thick.
STORAGE STAND / WALL BRACKETS
The SmartStick™ Extendable Shaft Hand Blender includes a two part
storage stand that can be assembled into a single piece for countertop use.
You can also separate the stand into two pieces, and mount one of the pieces
on your wall to use as a wall storage bracket.
Storage stand kit consists of six (6) pieces: two anchor bolts, two plastic wall
anchors, and two storage pieces that can fit together for countertop use or
separate for wall mount.
Countertop Option.
The two storage pieces fit together. (See diagram below).
Align the two pieces back to back on a flat surface, with the ring shaped
reservoirs facing right and left. The raised walls should be in the middle. Lift
up the right piece, align the two tabs in the back with the two slots of the left
piece. Gently slide the tabs into the slots until both pieces are resting flat on
the countertop.
To store SmartStick™ Hand Blender, detach the shaft and place the bottom
part (blade guard) into one of the reservoirs. Place the motor body (right side
up) into the other reservoir. You should be able to read the SmartStick™
logo, when the motor body is in the stand.

ATTACHMENTS:
(A) BLENDING / MIXING / CHOPPING / MINCING BLADE
Always use Speeds 3 and 4 when blending, mixing, chopping and puréeing
with the metal blade.
Blending & Mixing.
The specially designed blade is for mixing and stirring all kinds of foods,
including salad dressings, powdered drink products, and sauces. It is ideal for
combining dry ingredients, and can be used to emulsify mayonnaise too.
This blade mixes and stirs while adding only a minimum of air to your mixture.
A gentle up-and-down motion is all you need to make the most flavorful, full-
bodied liquid recipes. Be careful never to remove the Cuisinart
® SmartStick™
Extendable Shaft Hand Blender from the liquid while in operation.
Chopping & Mixing.
This blade also chops and purées cooked fruits, vegetables, baby foods, and
cooked meats/poultry. To chop or mince, always cut food into uniform pieces
of 1/2" to ensure perfect results. Keep the Cuisinart
® SmartStick™
Extendable Shaft Hand Blender directly over the food being processed, while
placing a free hand on the mixing container for support. You may wish to
place your free hand over the top of the container to prevent chopped ingre-
dients from escaping. Use a forceful up-and-down motion when chopping
and blending. This allows the blade to process the food more efficiently.
NOTE: If a piece of food becomes lodged in the guard surrounding the
blade, follow the safety instructions below:
1. Release the power button and unplug the electrical cord from the
wall socket.
2. After the power source is disconnected, use a spatula to carefully remove
the food lodged in the guard. Avoid injury. Do not use your fingers to
remove lodged objects.
3. After the lodged food has been removed you may plug the electrical cord
into the wall socket and continue blending.
NOTE: The maximum rating is based on the Blending Blade attachment
that draw the greatest load (power or current) and that other recommended
attachments may draw significantly less power or current.
