ENGLISH

• This product has no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to examine or repair this product yourself. Please review the Warranty Policy on Page 9.
• Do not put any stress on the power cord where it connects to the product, as the power cord could fray and break.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:

• Avoid contact with moving parts. Keep hair, hands, fingers, or any other body part from coming into contact with moving parts while the appliance is operating.
• Keep utensils away from the Stainless-Steel Blades to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the food chopper. Only use a scraper when the food chopper is unplugged.
• Be certain the Lid is securely locked in place before operating appliance. Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.
• Always assemble the product completely before plugging it into an electrical outlet.
• Always ensure the product is unplugged from the electrical outlet and all the parts stopped before assembling, disassembling, relocating or cleaning it.
• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord is not recommended for use with this product, but if one must be used:

— The marked electrical rating must be at least as great as that of the product.
- If the product is of a 3-prong grounding type, the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
- Arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over or pulled.
- If this product is equipped with a polarized plug one blade will be wider than the other blade; this is a safety feature. The plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug into the electrical outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use the plug with an extension cord unless you can fully insert the plug into the extension cord. Do not alter the plug. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

ii. Disassemble: Remove the side blade by turning it clockwise from main blade.

NOTE:

1) There are 2 anti-slip lines on main/side blade pieces. For safe and correct installation the 2 lines must align.
2) If the lines aren't aligned, the side blade may be loose and touch the bowl or lid making it unsafe to use, resulting in possible injury.
3) There is a safety lock on the main unit. During operation, please lay the appliance on a flat surface and press either "I" or "II" buttons firmly to start the operation.

Using Your Food Processor:

Attention: First use may cause a slight odor or small smoking upon heating, it is normal.

This is a result of the heating element chemical reaction. It quickly goes away.

WARNING: Always unplug the product from the electrical outlet when it is not in use or will be left unattended. Avoid contact with moving parts. Do not overfill the work bowl

or operate when it is empty. Stainless Steel Blades should be handled with extreme care when removing, assembling, cleaning, or storing.

1. Make sure the blade is positioned correctly on the center shaft, handling with care.
2. Place food in the work bowl without overfilling the appliance. We recommend pre-chopping any large foods to make processing easier.
3. Secure the lid on the work bowl by turning it counterclockwise to lock.
4. Plug the appliance into an electrical outlet. Press the LOW 'I' or HIGH 'II' pulse button to process. To turn off, release the button. Do not continuously run the appliance for more than 30 seconds.
5. Remove Motor Unit by lifting it off the secured lid. Unlock the lid from work bowl from the base by turning clockwise. Do not remove the lid until the blades have completely stopped moving.
6. When all desired food has been processed, disconnect appliance from the electrical outlet.
7. Carefully remove blade assembly and transfer your processed food using the included spatula.
8. If your processed food sticks to the chopper bowl, please remove pressure from the button and unplug from power. Use a spatula to scrape off the sides of the chopper bowl and start the processing again.
9. This item cannot be used for grinding beans, rice, or frozen meat or anything that is too hard or has too much liquid as this could damage the chopper.
10. If the food processor is shaking, it is because the food is not evenly placed. Unplug from wall and re-position the food evenly and begin the process again.

Processing Tips:

• Cut vegetables into 1-inch chunks before processing for uniform consistency
• Puree cooked vegetables or fruits for baby food or as bases for soups and sauces.
• Tear bread into pieces then process to make breadcrumbs. Break crackers or cookies into pieces and process into crumbs for pie crusts.
• Chop nuts; mince parsley, basil, chives, and garlic.
