- Attach Motor Unit: Place the motor unit securely onto the chopping bowl, ensuring it clicks into place. The unit is designed for safe operation only when properly assembled.
Operating Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Cut larger ingredients into smaller, manageable pieces (approximately 1-2 cm) before placing them into the chopping bowl. Do not overfill the bowl; ensure ingredients are below the maximum fill line.
- Secure Assembly: Ensure the blades are correctly positioned and the motor unit is firmly attached to the chopping bowl.
- Start Chopping: Press and hold the power button located on top of the motor unit to begin chopping. Release the button to stop. For best results, use short pulses rather than continuous operation, especially for finer chopping.

- Check Consistency: Open the lid and check the consistency of your chopped ingredients. Repeat pulsing if a finer chop is desired.
- Remove Ingredients: Once chopping is complete, carefully remove the motor unit, then the blades assembly, and finally empty the chopped ingredients from the bowl.
Safety Precautions:
- Always ensure the motor unit is securely attached before operation.
- Do not immerse the motor unit in water or any other liquid. Clean with a damp cloth only.
- Keep hands and utensils away from the blades during operation.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Do not attempt to chop extremely hard ingredients like coffee beans or ice cubes, as this may damage the blades or motor.
