10 Turn the lid clockwise (1) and remove it from the bowl (2). (Fig. 19)
Cube cutter
The cube cutter is intended for cutting raw and cooked vegetables and fruit into small cubes.
Do not process hard ingredients like fruit with stones, meat with bones or frozen ingredients.
They could block and damage the cube cutter.
Tip: If you want to process different ingredients without cleaning the cube cutter in between, always start
with the softest ingredients. For instance, for a fruit salad, start with banana, continue with mango and
end with apples.
1 Place the cube cutter on the bowl (1) and turn it anticlockwise to fix it (2). (Fig. 20)
2 Attach the cube cutter blade with the logo pointing upwards onto the cube cutter (Fig. 21).
The cutting edges of the cube cutter blade and grid are very sharp, so handle them with care!
3 Put the lid on the bowl (1). Turn the lid anticlockwise (2) to fix it. (Fig. 22)
4 Fasten the motor unit onto the lid of the bowl ('click') (Fig. 23).
Note: If it does not click into position, check if you have assembled the cube cutter blade in the right
position and if you have fixed the cube cutter properly.
5 Put the ingredients in the feeding tube.
See the table below for the recommended quantities.
- Pre-cut large ingredients into chunks that fit loosely in the feeding tube.
- When you have to process a large amount of ingredients, process small batches (max. 250g)
and shake the bowl slightly to distribute the cut ingredients in the bowl. Empty the bowl after
processing 500g.
