For optimum speed and the appropriate switching

Tips:
• Pre-cut large pieces into cubes of about
3 cm (or 1").
• Avoid overprocessing due to excessive
operation. (Also when using the M setting.)
• When chopping (hard) cheese, take care not to
keep the motor running too long. Then the
cheese could get warm and turn lumpy.
• If food should get caught around the metal
blade, or when particles of food should stick to
the inside of the bowl:
- first switch the appliance off,
- take the cover from the bowl
- and remove the food from the metal blade or
from the bowl using a spatula.
• Do not chop very hard ingredients, such as
coffee beans, nutmeg and lumps of ice: these
would blunt the metal blade.
Slicing disc § and grating discs
Take care: the cutting edges of the slicing
disc are very sharp!
Therefore, always hold the disc by its central
plastic holder.
