IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS SAVE AND READ THESE

INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION: THE CUTTING BLADES

HAVE VERY SHARP EDGES. Basic safety precautions should always be taken, including the following:

1 . READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS, including these important safeguards.

2 . Close supervision is necessary when this vegetable chopper is used by or near children or individuals with certain disabilities .

3 . Keep hands and utensils away from blades while chopping to prevent the risk of severe injury to persons or the chopper .

4 . Blades are extremely sharp . Handle carefully when removing or cleaning .

5 . Before using, check collection container for presence of foreign objects .

FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

4

TIPS AND HINTS Use the food pusher when slicing .

For perfect small dice, use the slicing blade to first slice ingredients, then dice using the small dicing grid .

For perfect large dice, cut vegetables like carrots and potatoes into -inch planks before using the large dicing grid .

Peel harder vegetables like carrots and potatoes before dicing for best results .

When dicing a lot of ingredients, shake the collection container between uses to disperse the diced ingredients . Keep the area below the grid clear so the newly diced ingredients have somewhere to fall . This will help prevent clogging and maximize the amount of ingredients you can dice without emptying the collection container into a larger bowl .

For best results, especially when dicing soft ingredients, use the cleaning tool to clean the teeth and the dicing blade between each use .

When using the small dicing blade, foods should be ripe but not soft soft foods may not dice properly .

RECOMMENDED INGREDIENTS Hard and semi-soft cheeses .

All pitted fruits and veggies . Harder veggies like carrots, butternut squash and sweet potatoes should be cut into -inch planks before dicing or slicing .

Softer fruits like mango should not be too ripe .

USE AND CARE Top rack dishwasher safe .

Hand-wash for best results . Use caution when washing blades .

5

TO DICE 1 . Select small or large dicing blade,

raise the chopper lid, and press the frame of the blade firmly into the opening . CAUTION: Always handle the dicing blade by the frame; dicing grid is sharp .

2 . Trim ingredients to fit on the dicing grid; position food in the center of the grid .

3 . Push the lid downward, applying pressure until the item is fully diced . Harder items like sweet potatoes will need a little extra push . Press directly above the cutting area to process .

4 . Use cleaning tool to remove any food caught in the lids food guides or in the blade . For best results, especially when dicing soft ingredients, use the tool to clean between each use .

6

TO SLICE 1 . Raise the chopper lid and press the

frame of the slicing blade firmly into the opening . CAUTION: Always handle the slicing blade by the frame, cutting edge is sharp .
