USING ThE FOOD ChOppER
The food chopper is ideal for chopping a wide range of vegetables, dried fruits, nuts, etc.
• Insert chopping blade into the chopping bowl.
• For best results, cut large ingredients into pieces of approximately 12.7 mm (1/2-inch)
cubed before chopping.
NOTE: Do not chop large ice cubes or extremely hard foods.
• Secure the chopping bowl cover by setting on the bowl, press down, and turn to the
right until firmly locked into place. The upper shaft of the chopping blade will fit into the
receiving hole in the underside of the cover.
• Attach the motor housing into the top of the food chopping bowl cover and turn to the
right until the motor housing is firmly locked into place. Plug cord into convenient outlet.
• Press and hold the on button to switch the unit on. Release the button to switch the unit
off.
• If the ingredients stick to the sides of the chopping bowl, loosen them by adding a
small amount of liquid or by using a spatula to scrape the food back into the inner part
of the bowl.
• Release the on button and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before
removing the bowl cover by turning cover to the left. Take care when removing the
blade and hold only by the shaft handle as the metal blade is sharp.
NOTE: Do not clean blades with fingers, use a spoon or spatula to scrape food into
bowl after blade is removed.
CAUTION: Unplug the appliance before attaching the food chopper attachment. Put
the food ingredients in the chopping bowl, secure the bowl cover to the
chopping bowl and attach the motor housing to it.
IMpORTANT: When using the food chopper, please make sure to place it on a level
surface as illustrated below (see figure). NEVER use it while holding it up
in the air, since the bowl might detach from the motor compartment
and fall.
