How to use
■
Confirm that the Mini Chopper is switched OFF and not connected during assembly.
Follow the steps below.
■
Food to be chopped should be precut into pieces of approximately
12mm / ½”. To achieve an even chop, these pieces should be similar in size.
1.
Place the Bowl on a clean, level dry work surface.
2.
Position the Chopping Blade directly onto the Spindle ensure it rotates when
pushed down to the bottom of the Bowl .
3.
Add the food to be chopped to the Bowl . Ensure not to exceed
0.5 L/16 fl. oz.
4.
Place the Lid onto the Bowl ensuring a good seal.
5.
Place the Power Unit into the Lid , this will inturn engage with the Cutting Blade
.
6.
Insert the mains plug into a mains socket and switch on at the socket.
7.
A firm hold should be taken of the Bowl and Lid whilst the Power Button is
pressed.
Even chopping
■
Press and release the Power Button two or three times, allowing the food pieces to
drop to the bottom of the Bowl between bursts.
■
Using this technique an even chop will be achieved without over-processing the food -
inspect the food by looking through the Bowl as you go.
For a coarse chop, pulse just a few times.
Fine chopping
■
For fine chopping, or making purées, press and hold the Power Button to run
the machine continuously for up to 20 seconds. Do not operate empty or allow to
“labour”.
■
Continue to repeat this until the required consistency is achieved.
■
If any pieces of food should stick to the inside of the Bowl and not be chopped
effectively it may be necessary to remove the Lid and scrape down the sides with a
plastic spatula.
■
An safety interlock switch is incorporated into the Power Unit . Nevertheless, Do not
lift off the Power Unit from the Lid whilst the Power Button is being pressed.
