Place the base of the mini food processor on a flat, dry, stable surface.
•
Place the work bowl on the central stem with the handle turned to the left corner of the appliance
(see Fig.1 in the cover).
•
Turn the bowl in an anticlockwise direction locking it onto the motor base.
•
Holding the blade assembly by its stem, carefully place it over the central spindle in the work bowl
(Fig.2). Push the blade down. A 'click' lets you know that it is locked into place.
•
To remove the blade, pull the assembly firmly upwards.
CAUTION! Always hold the blade assembly by its stem. Never touch the blade, it is extremely
sharp.
CAUTION! Never place the blade directly on the motor shaft before the bowl is locked in place.
CAUTION! Always insert the blade in the work bowl before adding ingredients.
•
Add to the bowl the food that you wish to process.
•
Place the lid on the bowl. The tab of the lid should be positioned to the right of the rear column.
Turn the lid in an anticlockwise direction to lock in place (Fig.3).
N.B.: If the lid is not locked, the motor will not start.
CAUTION! Make sure the motor has stopped completely and the blade has stopped moving
before removing the lid.
