LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS
1. Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance.
2.
To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4.
Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are
found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord replaced.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress
on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE, OR IF
APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
IMPORTANT
During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/or a slight odor.
This is normal and should quickly disappear. It will not recur after appliance has been
used a few more times.
USING YOUR MINI CHOPPER
BEFORE USING:
Wash container, lid and blade in the dishwasher or by hand with
warm, soapy water and let them dry completely. Do not immerse base in water or any
other liquid; use a damp sponge or cloth to wipe clean.
TO ASSEMBLE:
Be sure unit is unplugged before assembling.
1.
Place unit on a flat surface. Rubber feet will prevent the unit from slipping during
operation. Place the container onto the base, aligning the plastic tabs on the bottom
inner rim of the container with the locking slots on the base. Grasp top of container
and apply slight pressure and turn container until tabs lock into place.
2. Slide blade hub over the container shaft. CAUTION: Be careful when installing
blade hub, as blade is very sharp.
3. Place lid on the container; press down gently, slide extended tab on lid onto groove
in base slot and turn lid until raised dot marker on lid aligns with dot marker on base.
The lid will snap and lock into place.
Note:
For safety, this unit has an interlock system that will prevent unit operation if lid is
removed. This unit will not operate unless the extended tab on the container is correctly
located within the base slot. Do not attempt to start the unit without the lid correctly
positioned and locked.
TO USE:
Remove lid and place up to 1 ½ cups of dry food into container. Depending
on the type of food, amounts may vary. Divide large amounts of food into small portions
for processing. Secure lid, so that it is locked into place. Press and hold the Off/Pulse
button for the desired time. When you release the button, the mini-chopper will stop.
Watch carefully to avoid over processing, as most food-chopping takes less than 6
seconds. If the mini-chopper fails to operate, check to ensure that the container and
lid are properly locked into place. Wait for the blade to stop before removing the lid.
Unplug the unit and remove the lid. Lift the blade out before emptying the contents of
the container.
