- The appliance chops very quickly. Use the normal speed button or the turbo speed button. If
you use the turbo speed button, use it briey to prevent the food from becoming too nely
chopped.
- Do not let the appliance run too long when you chop (hard) cheese or chocolate. Otherwise
these ingredients become too hot, start to melt and turn lumpy.
- Do not use the blade unit to chop very hard ingredients like coffee beans, turmeric, nutmeg and
ice cubes, as this may cause the blade to get blunt.
