3. Secure Lid: Place the lid firmly on the jar and ensure it is properly seated. For jars with dome lids, ensure the dome is securely in place.

The mixer grinder features Turbo Vent Technology, which helps keep the motor cool during operation, extending its lifespan and preventing heat transfer to ingredients. The chrome-plated handles are designed for comfortable and secure handling.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

• Before Cleaning: Always unplug the appliance from the power supply.
• Jars and Lids: Wash jars, lids, and blades immediately after use to prevent food from drying on them. They can be washed with warm soapy water or placed in a dishwasher as they are dishwasher safe.
• Motor Unit: Wipe the main motor unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water. The anti-finger mark coating on the steel body helps maintain its appearance and simplifies cleaning.
