k
or
o
is very sharp!
Always hold by the upper plastic part.
Place the chopper bowl on the anti-slip duble
function base/lid
m
or
q
.
Important: Never work without the anti-slip
double function base/lid.
Place the blade insert on the centre pin of
the chopper bowl, push it down and turn
approximately 90° until it cannot be lifted of (e).
Finally, place the food into the chopper bowl.
Set the upper part on the chopper bowl (f).
Safety lock: The chopper will not work if the
upper part is not fitted properly.
Place the motor part onto the upper part of the
chopper until it locks (d).
During processing, hold the motor part with one
hand and the chopper with the other (g).
When you have finished you can remove the
motor part by pressing the two buttons and
pulling off the motor part from the upper part of
the chopper. Then remove the upper part from
the chopper bowl.
Before removing the processed food, first take
out the blade insert from the chopper bowl. You
may have to turn the blade insert slightly,
because for safety reasons, the blade insert
cannot be removed from the chopper bowl in
every position.
Food preparation and chopping
Do not chop ice cubes or extremely hard food,
such as nutmeg, coffee beans, chocolate and
grains.
When chopping meat ensure that all bones,
tendons and gristle are removed.
Besides meat, the chopper can also be used,
e. g. for cheese (without rind), onions, parsley,
dried fruits, tomatoes, carrots, apples, nuts etc.
When chopping cooked food allow it to cool off
for a few minutes before putting it into the
chopper bowl.
The double function base/lid also serves as an
air-tight cover for the chopper bowl.
