Recommendations When Using Your Soup Maker
- Do not use the appliance for anything other than its intended purpose.
- Do not run the appliance when the jug is empty.
- Do not use the appliance without the lid being securely clipped in place.
- Do not use the soup maker to blend very hard or large food, you could damage the blades.
- The heating element surface is subject to residual heat after use.
- Always disconnect the appliance before adding food and liquids.
- The soup maker is not suitable for use with packet, carton, canned or other prepared soups and must not be used to reheat any previously prepared soups. This soup maker is for the creation of fresh soups to be served upon completion of the preprogrammed cycles.
- Do not connect your soup maker to the main supply until you have added your chosen ingredients.
- Cut up food to 2cm squares before putting into the soup maker.
- We also recommend that you do a ratio of 2 parts food to 3 parts of water. This will help the soup maker mix and stir everything easier and will retain the life of your machine. Therefore, 640ml of food maximum is recommended per mixing session.
- Always make sure that the total volume of ingredients (food + liquid) is at least 1.3L (Min Level) but no more than 1.6L (Max Level). The soup maker will not work if those levels are not observed. If you exceed the maximum level, remove some vegetables or liquid. If you are below the minimum level, add some vegetables or liquid. If you do not proceed this way, the appliance will make a “beep” sound, indicating that MIN and MAX levels have not been observed.
- The chunky Setting only cooks the ingredients, it will not chop them. If after cooking, the soup is a little chunky for your taste, you can use the Blend Setting to help break down some of the chunks.
Preparing for First Time Use
- Remove all packaging materials on, around, or inside your appliance, including stickers, labels, and plastics, etc.
- Clean the inside of the jug using hot water and mild soap. Dry thoroughly.

Getting to Know Your Soup Maker
This appliance has 2 main functions: Heating & BlendingThis appliance has 4 different modes: Smooth, Chunky, Juice & Blend
Smooth• 30 Minutes• BlendsThe smooth soup program is perfect for delicious soup recipes requiring a smooth consistency. This program ensures the ingredients are blended to the right consistency, and gently cooked at the right temperature. This program lasts for 30 minutes before the soup is ready to serve. You can also use the smooth function to make hot soymilk.
Chunky• 28 Minutes• Does Not BlendThe chunky soup program is perfect for rustic soup recipes requiring a chunkier consistency. This program ensures the ingredients are heated for longer to ensure the chunky ingredients are fully cooked. This program lasts for 28 minutes before the soup is ready to serve. For chunky soup, there is no blending process, just heating. It is therefore recommended that you cut any vegetables into small dice-sized pieces.
Juice• 2 Minutes• Does Not Get HotThe juicing program is ideal for making smoothies or milkshakes from fresh ingredients. This program lasts for 2 minutes before your drink is ready to serve. The juice setting does not heat the ingredients, so it’s perfect for ice-cold drinks. Warning: Do not place ice cubes in the Soup &Smoothie Maker.
Blend / Self Clean• Must Press for Continuous Operation• Does Not Get HotThe blended program allows you to further blend the soup to your desired consistency if required. This function works without additional heating of the soup. To use this function after cooking, you will need to unplug your Soup Maker before re-plugging into the mains. This resets the Soup Maker, allowing you to select the Blend Setting with the Mode Button. When highlighted, press and hold the mode button to blend the contents of the jug.
Warning:
- This function is not suitable for raw meat.
- Do not blend dry ingredients, you must add some liquid before you blend the ingredients.
- Do not use the blending mode for more than 20 seconds without letting the appliance cool down sufficiently afterward.
LED ScreenThis Soup Maker utilizes 3 different processes to create fresh soups and drinks: heating, resting and blending. Each of these processes is highlighted during the process with a small animation on the LED Screen.
ReadyWhen the Soup Maker is first switched on, the Soup Maker will display this setting.
HeatingThe heating animation will appear in motion when the Soup Maker is heating the contents of the Jug.
BlendingThe blending animation will be displayed when the Mixing Blade is in use. When switching from heating to blending the Soup Maker will make a single audible beep.
RestingDuring this part of the process, the Soup Maker will occasionally “rest” at which point no animation will be shown. This is normal.
CompletedOnce the process is completed, the Soup Maker will beep, and the screen will display the “completed” iron.

- Clean the surface of the soup maker (jug) and lid (motor unit) with a soft, damp cloth.
- To clean the inside of the jug and inside of the lid, rinse in clean water to remove any remaining soup. Wipe away any remaining food with a soft cloth and a mild detergent before rinsing again.
- The blades under the lid are not removable and are very sharp; extreme caution should be taken when cleaning the inside of the lid.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the heating function work when I remove the lid?No. Removing the lid cuts the power to the unit for maximum safety. The heating function only activates when you have placed it on the lid and selected a program.
Can I remove the lid mid-cycle?Yes, but the power will be immediately cut to the blending blade for your safety. Power will also be cut to the control panel, so you will need to start the program again from the beginning, after replacing the lid.
Can I use uncooked meat in soup recipes made in my Soup Maker?You should cook the meat separately before transferring it into your Soup.
Can I change the times on the smooth and chunky soup settings?No. The times for these settings are preset.
What if my Soup Maker stops working?Your Soup Maker is fitted with a safety thermostat, which cuts the power and stops the product from working to prevent overheating if it is used continuously on 3 or more cycles. If this happens, allow the Soup Maker to cool for 30 minutes and you can continue making your soup. Additionally, If the blend function is used continuously for more than 20 seconds a safety cut-out will cut the power to prevent overheating. When this happens wait for 10 seconds before reusing the blend function.
Can I make cold soups like Gazpacho in my Soup Maker?Yes, but you will first need to cook the soup using either the chunky or smooth soup setting. Then simplyallow to cool or refrigerate before enjoying.
What if food burns on the base of my Soup Maker?Due to the starch and sugars present in some foods, a slight burning may occur if they are placed in direct contact with the inside base of the jug. To prevent this, add half a cup of water or stock to the Soup Maker before placing in any solid ingredients. Then top up with the remaining liquid specified in your recipe.
Troubleshooting
| Problem |
Solution |
| The soup maker is not working and is beeping. | The liquid level is too high. Check and clean the overfill sensor. Take off some food/liquid and put the lid back on. |
| The soup maker has stopped working mid-program. | The lid is loose. The liquid level is too high, or the soup maker is overfilled. |
| Ingredient pieces are still too large after the Smooth Soup program has ended. | Pieces may have been too big initially. Add some water and select the “Manual blending function” after the initial cooking program has finished. |
| The ingredients are hard after the cooking cycle has ended. | Chop the ingredients into small pieces before adding to the soup maker. The wrong soup cycle has been used for the volume added. |
| The unit is not switching on or an audible sound is heard. | Check and clean the overfill sensor |
| The unit is showing an El error. | The min and max ingredient requirements have not been followed. Remove or add some liquids / Ingredients. |
