REVERSIBLE BLADE

The Cuisinart® Smart Stick® Variable Speed Hand Blender chopper/grinder attachment is equipped with a reversible blade. This blade is sharp on one side and blunt on the other. The blade is attached to a plastic ring that slides over the plastic blade sheath, so it can be easily turned over to select the appropriate blade. To reverse the blade, see detailed instructions on page 10. Also see Frequent Uses for Chopper/Grinder (page 16).

Assemble the parts:

Cuisinart-CSB-179-Smart-Stick-Hand-Blender-fig- (10)

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

MOTOR BODY AND BLENDING SHAFT

  • Unplug the Smart Stick® before cleaning. Clean the motor body and blending shaft thoroughly after using. Remove the blending shaft from the motor body. Clean the motor body only with a sponge or damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface. To clean the blending shaft, wash by hand in hot water, using mild detergent. Be mindful of the fixed, razor-sharp edges.
  • Do not put the motor body or blending shaft in the dishwasher.

CHOPPER/GRINDER ATTACHMENT

  • To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, blade and cover immediately after use so that food won’t dry on them. Do not submerge the work bowl cover in water or put in the dishwasher. Wash chopping blade and work bowl in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Wipe the underside of the cover with a sponge or damp cloth to remove any food. Wash the blade carefully. Avoid leaving it in soapy water where it may disappear from sight.
  • You can wash the work bowl and chopping blade on the top shelf of your dishwasher. Unload the dishwasher carefully to avoid contact with the sharp blade. Wipe the motor body and top of the cover with a damp sponge or cloth. Dry it immediately. Never submerge the motor body or the cover in water or other liquids. The  chopper/grinder attachment is intended for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

WHISK ATTACHMENT

  • To clean your whisk attachment, simply release the attachment from the motor body housing. Once the whisk is removed, detach the metal whisk from the gearbox by pulling the pieces apart. To clean the gearbox, simply wipe with a damp cloth. To clean the metal whisk, wash with warm, soapy water or put in the top shelf of the dishwasher.
  • Do not submerge the gearbox in water or any other liquids.
  • Any service, other than cleaning and normal user maintenance, should be performed by an authorized Cuisinart Service Representative.

TIPS AND HINTS FOR HAND BLENDER

  • When blending in the mixing cup, pour liquid ingredients in first, unless recipe instructs otherwise.
  • When blending into mixing cup, for example, when making a fruit smoothie, cut most solid foods into ½-inch pieces for easy blending.
  • Be sure that blending blade guard is fully submerged before blending ingredients.
  • Do not attempt to blend fruit pits, bones or other hard materials, as these are liable to damage the blades.
  • Do not fill mixing containers too full. The level of mixture will rise when blending and can overflow.
  • Liquid should not come closer than 1 inch of where the shaft attaches to the motor housing.
  • Using a gentle up-and-down motion is the best way to blend and incorporate ingredients uniformly.
  • To whip air into a mixture, always hold the blade just under the surface.
  • When using a nonstick cooking surface, be careful not to scratch the coating with the hand blender.
  • To purée a soup, use the hand blender to blend the soup ingredients to the desired consistency using a gentle up-and-down motion right in the saucepan or pot.
  • When blending ingredients right in a pot or pan, tilt the pan away from you to create a deeper area for blending to prevent splatter.
  • Do not let hand blender stand in a hot pot on stove while not in use.
  • Use the hand blender to make smooth gravies and pan sauces.
  • The hand blender is perfect for frothing milk for cappuccino or lattes. Just warm milk in a small saucepan, and then pulse the hand blender gently, being sure to keep the blending blade guard fully submerged.
  • Do not immerse motor body housing in water or any other liquids.

FOR WHISK ATTACHMENT

  • Do not immerse whisk attachment gearbox in water or any other liquids.
  • Use the whisk attachment for beating heavy cream or egg whites.
  • When beating egg whites, use a very clean metal or glass bowl, never plastic. Plastic can contain hidden oils and fats that can ruin the delicate egg-white foam. To help stabilize the egg whites, add 1/8 teaspoon of cream of tartar per egg white prior to beating them. (If using a copper bowl, omit the cream of tartar.) Beat the egg whites until desired peaks form.
  • When adding sugar to beaten egg whites, add it slowly when soft peaks just begin to form, and then continue beating to form desired peaks.
  • Beating the egg whites too long causes them to dry out and become less stable.
  • When beating heavy cream, if possible and time allows, use a chilled bowl and chill the whisk attachment. The best shaped bowl for whipping cream is one that is deep with a rounded bottom to minimize any splatter.
  • The cream should come out of the refrigerator just before whipping. Whipped cream may be used at either soft or firm peaks, depending on preference. It may be flavored as desired. For best results, whip cream just before using.
  • It may also be used for any task that you would normally whisk by hand, like crêpe batters or eggs for omelets.

FOR FOOD CHOPPER/GRINDER ATTACHMENT

  • Do not overload work bowl. For best results, most foods should not reach more than 2∕3 of the way up the work bowl.
  • Liquids in work bowl should not exceed 1½ cups. Use quantities given in the recipe section as a guide.
  • For raw ingredients: Peel, core and/or remove seeds and pits. Food should be between ½ and 1 inch, depending on hardness of the food.
  • The size of pieces you put in bowl should be about the same size to achieve even results.
  • Do not attempt to chop fruit pits, bones or other hard materials, as these are liable to damage the blades.
  • Pulse food in 1-second increments to chop. For the finest chop, process continuously. Watch ingredients closely to achieve desired consistency and scrape the work bowl as necessary.
  • Do not operate chopper/grinder attachment for more than 30 seconds continuously.
  • When making compound butters, remove the butter from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before blending the ingredients.
  • Some spices may scratch the work bowl.
  • Do not immerse food processor cover in water or any other liquids.
