15. Do not charge batteries with handle charger plugged into an
outdoor outlet.
1. READ ALL INST RUCT IONS.
16. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or
after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or
damaged in any way, or is not operating properly. Return the
appliance to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center for examination,
repair, or mechanical or electrical adjustment.
2. To protect against electrical shock, do not put the charger handle
or motor body of this hand blender in water or other liquid. The
drive shaft of this appliance, where blades are interchanged, has
been designed for submersion in water or other liquids. Never
submerge any other portion of this unit. If hand blender falls
into liquid, remove immediately. Carefully remove, clean and dry
unit thoroughly before continuing.
17. The use of attachments or accessories not recommended by
Cuisinart may cause fire, electrical shock or risk of injury.

23. Do not mount the storage bracket/unit over or near any portion
of a heating or cooking appliance, or a sink or wash basin.
24. Unplug the charger handle from the outlet before attempting any
routine cleaning of the charger handle.
25. Do not operate a damaged charger. Have damaged charger
replaced immediately.
26. Do not incinerate the hand blender, even if it is severely
damaged. The batteries can explode in a fire.
As with all Cuisinart products, the Cordless Rechargeable Hand
Blender is designed to be easy to use. Prongs slide out of the charger
handle and into any wall outlet to recharge the batteries. The charger
handle can be left in the outlet whenever the blender is not in use to
guarantee up to 15 minutes of run time whenever you need it. The
Cordless Rechargeable Hand Blender is engineered to let the batteries
remain on continuous charge and to draw very little power while
connected.
27. This product contains nickel cadmium batteries which must
be recycled at the end of the life of the hand blender and
disposed of properly. (See Disposal / Recycling of Batteries.)
Do not incinerate or compost batteries, as they will explode at
high temperatures.
28. Leaks from battery cells can occur under extreme conditions. If the
liquid, which is a 20-35% solution of potassium hydroxide, gets on
the skin, (1) wash quickly with soap and water or (2) neutralize
with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. If the liquid gets
into eyes, flush them immediately with clean water for a minimum
of 10 minutes. Seek medical attention.
Cuisinart is famous for easy cleanups, too, and this hand blender is no
exception. The detachable shaft is dishwasher safe, and the handle
wipes clean in seconds.
Enjoy the perfect blend with Cuisinart, wherever life takes you!

Continuous Charging
CH ARGING & BAT T ERY LIFE
Your Cuisinart Cordless Rechargeable Hand Blender is equipped with
nickel cadmium batteries. We have selected these batteries to give you
maximum life and long running times, as well as rapid recharging times.
The unit is designed so that the batteries may remain on continuous
charge. It is recommended that the Cuisinart Cordless Rechargeable
Hand Blender charger be kept plugged into a wall socket to charge, so
that it will always be ready to use. Leaving the unit on continuous charge
is very inexpensive in terms of the amount of electricity
being used.
®
®
If you run your batteries down completely, it will take between 12 and
24 hours to completely recharge them. They will be over 50% charged
after only 3 hours. Normally, you will not run them down completely.
The normal running time with a full charge varies depending on what
you are blending, but you can expect up to 15 minutes. The maximum
time for most mixing tasks is up to 2 minutes.
Holding the Charge
The batteries will keep their charge even when not plugged in. The
batteries will lose approximately 1% of their total charge per month,
if they are not plugged in and charging.

(B) WHIPPING DISC ATTACHMENT
AT TACH MENT S:
(A) BLENDING / MIXING / CHOPPING / MINCING BLADE
The Whipping Attachment is specially designed to add air and
volume to mixtures. Perfect for aerating egg whites, cream and
mayonnaise, this attachment 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
hand blender in the bottom of the container and turn it on for about
15 seconds. Then continue to process, lifting the hand blender almost to
the top of the liquid until mixture is thick.
Blending & Mixing
This specially designed blade is for mixing and stirring all kinds of
foods, including salad dressings, powdered drink products, soups and
sauces. It is also ideal for combining dry ingredients.
The blade mixes and stirs while adding 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 Cordless Rechargeable 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 to
your wall to use as a wall storage bracket.
Chopping & Mixing
This blade also chops and blends cooked fruits, vegetables and baby
foods. To chop or mince, always cut food into uniform pieces of
®
about 1/2" to ensure perfect results. Keep the Cuisinart Cordless
Rechargeable 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 ingredients from escaping. Use a forceful up-and-
down motion when chopping and blending. This allows the blade to
process the food more efficiently.
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, or be separated for wall
mount.
Countertop Option
The two storage pieces fit together. (See diagram below.)
NOT E: If a piece of food becomes lodged in the guard surrounding
the blade, follow the safety instructions below:
1. Release the power button and detach the charger handle from the
motor body.
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 T O REMOVE LODGED OBJECT S.
3. After the lodged food has been removed, reattach the charger
handle to the motor body and continue processing.
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 a drill, make a 3/16" starter hole for each screw. Place the plastic

The charger handle can be attached to the motor body when you store
the unit. This is especially helpful when you want the hand blender
close at hand during a heavy use period. Probably you will want to
plug the charger handle into the electrical socket to keep the battery
charged during other times. The counter storage unit can also be
placed in a cupboard or on a shelf.
Position the two mounting holes of the wall bracket over the screw
heads, and slide wall bracket down the wall until the bracket is resting
against the screw head, and will not slide any further. If the wall bracket
feels too loose against the wall, remove bracket, put screws further into
wall, and replace bracket.
Place the assembled hand blender into the wall bracket. The unit will
hang from the bracket, held in place by the motor body width.
Wall Mount Option
The charger handle can be attached to the motor body when you store
the unit. This is especially helpful when you want the hand blender
close at hand during a heavy use period. At other times, you probably
will want to keep the charger handle plugged into the electrical
socket to assure the battery is always 100% charged.
Separate the two plastic storage stand pieces. You will need only one
for wall mount. (See diagram below.)
When selecting a mounting location, be sure to leave enough room
®
above the storage stand for your hand to remove the Cuisinart
Cordless Rechargeable Hand Blender. Also be sure to leave enough
room below the stand to allow the appliance to hang freely.
You will need to drill two holes 2-2/3" apart from each other, measured
from the center of each hole. To assist in proper location of holes for
the mounting screws, remove the wall mount template from this
instruction book. Place the template over the back of the wall unit,
aligning the outline of the template with the wall bracket. When you
have done this, place the template and wall bracket against the wall in
the desired location. Remove the wall bracket, leaving the template in

In a Cuisinart 2-3/4 quart Saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium
heat. Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, and basil. Cover loosely
and cook until the vegetables are softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the
roasted red pepper, wine, tomato paste, and tomatoes. Bring to a
boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, loosely
covered. Uncover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes longer to thicken.
Remove pan from heat and let stand 5 minutes. Insert the hand
blender fitted with the metal blending blade, and using a gentle
up-and-down motion, process the sauce until well blended, about
60 to 90 seconds. Process for shorter time if a more textured sauce
is preferred. Remove the charger handle from the hand blender.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Place cloves of garlic in the center of a
12-inch square of foil, drizzle with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and
toss to coat. Wrap the foil around the garlic and fold or crimp to
seal. Roast until garlic is tender, about 1 hour. Cool slightly before
using. (Garlic may be done ahead, and will keep in a resealable
container for 5 days in the refrigerator.)
While the garlic is roasting, heat remaining olive oil with butter in
®
a Cuisinart 3-3/4 quart Saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion,
carrot, and celery. Reduce heat to low, cover loosely and cook until
vegetables are tender but not browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the
stock, water, potatoes, herbs de Provence, and roasted garlic. Raise
heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer,
loosely covered, until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Turn
off heat and let sit for 2 to 3 minutes.
