How to…
…assemble and use your mini chopper
Before use, remove all packaging and wash all items apart from the base in warm
soapy water. Dry thoroughly before use.
IMPORTANT: Various spices such as cloves, dill or cumin seeds can have an adverse
effect on the bowl and should not be chopped. Before chopping nuts or bread crumbs
etc., ensure that both the food and the blade, bowl and lid are thoroughly dry. Best
results are obtained from chopping small quantities at a time into small pieces. If you
are preparing baby food always check that all the ingredients are thoroughly chopped
before feeding. Beware of over processing some ingredients. Stop and check the
consistency frequently. To ensure even processing, stop and scrape down any food
from the sides of the bowl with a plastic spatula.
1. Slot the bowl onto the base section and
align the tabs on the bottom of the bowl
with the bowl locking slots on the base (1).
Turn the bowl clockwise to lock onto the
base (2).
2. Slot the blade over the drive shaft. You may
need to rotate the blade to get it to t correctly.
Then place the ingredients you wish to chop into
the bowl.
CAUTION: The blade is very sharp, handle with care.
