Before First Use

Wash the Bowl, Lid, and Knife Blade in warm, sudsy water or a dishwasher (top rack only) and dry thoroughly. Wipe the Base with a damp cloth; do not immerse the Base in water.

Note: For your protection this unit has a Lid interlock system. The unit will not operate unless the Extended Tab is correctly locked into the Base Slot. Do not attempt to operate the unit without the Lid being correctly placed.

How To Use – English

1.Place the Base on a counter or flat work surface. Put the Bowl on the Base and line up the Locking Tabs of the Bowl to the Base. Turn clockwise until the Bowl locks into place. (A)

2.Slide the Knife Blade down over the shaft. Be careful not to touch the Blade as it is extremely sharp.

3.Place food in the Bowl. You can process about 1/2 cup of dry food at a time (See Chopping Guide). Larger amounts should be processed in small batches.

4.Place the Lid on the Bowl, with the Extended Tab on the same side as the Base Slot. Turn the Lid clockwise into the Base Slot as far as it will go so that the two dots line up. (B)

5.Press the Pulse/On Button for a few seconds. Be careful not to overprocess. Most foods process in less than 5-25 seconds. For coarsely chopped foods, use repeated short pulses.

6.Be sure the Blade has stopped turning completely before removing the Lid or placing a spatula in the unit. Lift the Knife Blade straight up and move it away from you before emptying the contents of the Bowl. Use a spatula to remove the processed food from the unit.

If the Chopper does not operate, be sure the Locking Tabs on the Bowl and the Extended Tab on the Lid are properly positioned.
