•Use the slow speed where possible especially if you want to chop the food into bigger pieces. The high speed can be used for chopping the food to small pieces or for pureed foods.
•You can adjust the speed of the unit with the speed control when using slow speed or high speed function. (Model 2612)
•Set the speed control dial to the desired speed and depress the slow or high speed button as desired. (Model 2609)
•If the ingredients stick to the chopper bowl sides, 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 speed control 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 but use a spoon or spatula to scrape food into bowl after blade is removed.
CAUTION: Unplug the appliance before attaching the chopper attachment. Put the food ingredients in the chopper bowl, secure the bowl cover to the chopping bowl and attach the motor housing to it. Use the slow speed, especially if you are chopping lumps in the ingredients. The high speed can be used as a finishing touch.
