ASSEMBLING AND DISASSEMBLING THE APPLIANCE
■
Before you start assembling or disassembling the appliance,
check that the motor unit
A2
is turned off and disconnected
from the power socket and that the rotating parts have come to
a complete stop.
■
Place the anti-slip ring
A6
on to a dry, even and stable surface
and put the bowl
A5
into it.
■
Now assemble the blade assembly
A4
. It consists of two parts,
the top and bottom chopping blades. Hold the top chopping
blades by the middle part and seat them on to the bottom
chopping blades from above, and then turn them in one
direction or the other so that both parts fit into each other. For
a firm connection of both parts, hold the bottom chopping
blades with one hand and use the other hand to hold the top
chopping blades and turn them anticlockwise until they lock
into place.
Attention:
When handling the chopping blades, be very
careful not to injure yourself on their sharp cutting
edges. Only touch the plastic central part of the
chopping blades.
■
Put the assembled blade assembly
A4
on to the central pin at
the bottom of the bowl
A5
, and put the lid
A3
on to the bowl
A5
. The shape of the lid enables it to be seated in only one
direction. Push the lid
A3
down so that it adheres to the edge of
the bowl
A5
along its entire perimeter.
Attention:
When handling the the blade assembly
A4
, be very
careful not to injure yourself on its sharp edges.
Always hold the blade assembly by its central part.
■
Put the motor unit
A2
on to the lid
A3
so that it fits in properly.
Now the appliance is assembled.
■
To disassemble, proceed in reverse sequence.
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
■
Assemble the chopper according to the instructions in the
chapter Assembling and disassembling the appliance. Put the
ingredients into it after seating the blade assembly
A4
on the
central pin at the bottom of the bowl
A5
. Do not fill the bowl
A5
above the maximum mark (1 l).
■
Connect the power cord to a power socket and press the pulse
button
A1
to start the chopper. Hold down button
A1
for a few
moments and then release it. When the button
A1
is released,
the chopper will stop. If the food inside is not sufficiently
chopped up, run the chopper again for a short time. Short pulse
switching will limit excessive pulverisation of the food. Hold the
bowl
A5
with one hand during operation.
Attention:
The maximum continuous operating time of the
appliance is 20 seconds. Then allow it to cool down
for 2 minutes.
■
If food is sticks to the inside of the bowl
A5
, turn off the chopper
and disconnect it from the power socket. Make sure that the
blade assembly
A4
has stopped rotating. Remove the motor
unit
A2
and the lid
A3
. Clean the inside of the bowl
A5
using
a spatula. Assemble the chopper, plug the power cord into
a power socket and continue processing food.
■
When you finish using it, disconnect the power cord from
the power socket. Make sure that the blade assembly
A4
has
stopped rotating. Remove the motor unit
A2
and the lid
A3
.
First, carefully take the blade assembly
A4
out of the bowl
A5
and only then empty out its contents.
■
Then clean all used parts according to the instructions in
chapter Cleaning and maintenance.
QUICK GUIDE TO PROCESSING INGREDIENTS

2 × 2 cm and only then process with the chopper. With
vegetables like onion, it is sufficient to cut them into quarters.
