7.1 Processing foodstuff
Place the bowl (6) with the drive shaft (5) inserted onto the motor block (9) so that the arrow marking (▼) on the bowl (6) points towards the opened padlock 6 on the motor block (9).
Now rotate the bowl (6) as far as it will go in the direction of the closed padlock symbol ☐ so that the arrow marking (▼) points towards the closed padlock ☐ on the motor block (9). Ensure that the bowl (6) audibly and perceptibly clicks into place and the drive shaft (5) lies flat on the base. If this is not the case, turn the drive shaft (5) clockwise until it rests on the base.
◆ Position the blade insert (4) on the drive shaft (5). Ensure the correct assembly positioning.
Prepare the food to be chopped. Remove hard shells or skins, e.g. from nuts, take meat of the bone and remove any stringy pieces. Cut large pieces into smaller ones so that they do not become stuck in the bowl (6). The edge length should not exceed 2 to 3 cm.
◆ Place the prepared food in the bowl (6).
Place the lid (2) onto the bowl (6) so that the arrow marking (▼) on the lid (2) points towards the opened padlock on the bowl (6).
Now turn the lid (2) anti-clockwise as far as it will go.

7.2 Whipping cream
You can also use the mini chopper to whip cream (min. 100 ml, max. 200 ml). For this purpose, you need the whisk attachment (3) provided.
Proceed as described in the previous section; however, instead of the blade insert (4), use the whisk attachment (3) for whipping cream.
- Pour the desired amount of cream in (maximum of 200 ml).
| Foodstuffs Capacity | Speed Processing | time | |
| Cream * 200 ml | Level II | Approx. 30 seconds |
*: with the whisk attachment (3)

- To whip cream optimally, it should be sufficiently cooled (fridge temperature).
- The whipping time varies based on the quantity of whipping cream. Make sure to adjust the whipping time accordingly. The times may vary greatly however depending on the temperature of the cream, the outdoor temperature or the fat content of the cream. Keep an eye on the cream whilst whipping it and adjust the processing time to the conditions and your requirements.
