General Operation
- Ensure the appliance is correctly assembled and locked.

Using the Feed Chutes
The Kitchen Wizz Pro features multiple feed chute options for versatility:

- Mini Feed Chute: Use for smaller, thinner ingredients like carrots or cucumbers to ensure they remain upright and are sliced evenly.
