IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Do not place the appliance
on a stovetop or any other
heatable surface.
WARNING: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any
way or force it into the outlet. This could result in injury or electric shock.

supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is
exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply extension cord
is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3. Lower the blade onto the shaft. WARNING: The chopper blade is sharp;
handle with care when assembling and cleaning the chopper. Failure to
do so can result in personal injury.
4. When ready to chop, place the lid on top of the work bowl with the lid
handle over the PULSE button. Slide the lid handle right until the handle
of the lid aligns with the handle of the bowl. The chopper will not run
unless its parts are properly assembled.
HOW TO DISASSEMBLE THE FOOD CHOPPER+

a breeze.
1. To remove the lid, slide the handle to the left, then lift it off.

9 10
5. Plug unit in. The capacitive control buttons (PULSE and START/STOP)
will light up. NOTE: If buttons do not light up, it may mean the chopper
has not been assembled correctly.
6. For continuous processing—good for pureeing soups and sauces—press
the START/STOP button. The Food Chopper+ will chop until the START/
STOP button is pressed again. WARNING: To avoid overheating the
motor, do not use the blender for more than 3 minutes continuously.
Allow the motor to cool between uses.
7. For short bursts of chopping, which can offer more control, press and
release the PULSE button. The chopper will process for as long as the
PULSE button is held down; wait for the blade to stop spinning before
pressing PULSE again.
8. If adding liquid, such as oil, while processing, slowly and carefully pour the
liquid into the drizzle opening on top of the lid.
9. When ingredients are processed to your liking, press START/STOP if
necessary.
10. Unplug the chopper before removing the lid, work bowl, or blade.
WARNING: Never use fingers to scrape food away from the cutting
blade. Serious injury may result.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONSOPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO USE THE FOOD CHOPPER+
Perfectly sized for common cooking tasks, such as chopping onions and
pureeing sauces, soups, and cooked fruits and vegetables, the Food
Chopper+ is simple and intuitive to use.
1. Set the chopper on a flat work surface near an outlet; do not plug in yet.
2. Attach the work bowl to the base so that its handle is aligned between
the two control buttons then lower the blade onto the shaft until locked
in place.
3. Add ingredients to be processed to the work bowl.
For best results:
• Cut the ingredients to be chopped into uniform pieces of 1-inch or less.
• Fill the work bowl no more than two-thirds full. Overfilling can strain
the motor and cause inconsistent results. Overfilling can also cause
spillage that can result in serious burns if contents are hot.
• Do not process hard ingredients like coffee beans, thick squares of
chocolate, or hard spices, which can damage the unit.
• If including liquid, do not fill past the Max line indicated on the blade unit.
4. Secure the lid on the work bowl so that the lid’s handle aligns with the
handle of the work bowl.
11 12
While the Food Chopper+ is easy to use, these handy tips will only enhance
the experience.
• Always insert the blade before adding any ingredients to the work bowl.
• Let hot foods cool down before processing.
• For the smoothest soup, strain solid ingredients and process them
without the liquid, then add the liquid and process to combine.
• For the best texture when grinding meat or cheese, freeze the ingredient
briefly to get it cold but not frozen solid.
• To make breadcrumbs, break bread into pieces and pulse to desired
texture.
• To crumb cookies to use in a crust, break them into pieces then process
until finely ground.
• When making a mayonnaise, or any other sauce that’s emulsified, add the
oil very slowly through the drizzle opening while pulsing or processing.
• Use your Food Chopper+ to combine batters and even to whip cream.
CHOPPING AND PROCESSING TIPS
The Food Chopper+ must be cleaned after every use. Fortunately, that’s very
easy to do.
1. Unplug the unit before disassembling and cleaning.
2. The work bowl, lid, and blade are all top-rack dishwasher safe. Or wash
by hand with hot soapy water, then rinse well and dry. WARNING: Handle
the blade with care as it is extremely sharp. Use caution when attaching,
detaching, cleaning, or storing.
3. Clean the base by wiping it with a damp cloth. The base is not dishwasher
safe. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to clean base or other
parts as it could damage the finish.
4. Store in a cool, dry place.
