Please read these instructions carefully before first use and retain them for future reference.

2. Configuration et assemblage

Before first use, wash all components in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry. The Turbo Chef consists of three main parts:

1. The container (base)
2. The triple-blade cutting assembly
3. The lid with the pull-cord mechanism

Étapes d'assemblage :

1. Carefully remove the protective cover from the triple-blade cutting assembly. Caution: Blades are very sharp. Handle with extreme care.
2. Place the triple-blade cutting assembly onto the central pin inside the container. Ensure it sits securely.
3. Add your ingredients to the container. Do not overfill. Ensure ingredients are cut into manageable pieces (e.g., onion quarters) before placing them in the chopper.
4. Place the lid onto the container, aligning the tabs on the lid with the grooves on the container. Twist gently to lock the lid in place.

3. Mode d'emploi

Once assembled with ingredients, the Turbo Chef is ready for use.

1. Place the assembled chopper on a stable, flat surface.
2. Hold the lid firmly with one hand.
3. With your other hand, pull the cord horizontally and quickly. The blades will rotate, chopping the ingredients.
4. Relâchez le cordon pour le laisser se rétracter complètement.
5. Repeat the pulling motion until your desired consistency is achieved. A few pulls will result in coarsely chopped ingredients, while more pulls will create a finer chop.
6. Once chopping is complete, carefully unlock and remove the lid.
7. Carefully remove the blade assembly by holding the plastic top part, avoiding direct contact with the blades.
8. Empty the chopped ingredients from the container.

Conseils pour de meilleurs résultats :

• For harder ingredients like carrots, cut them into smaller pieces before placing them in the chopper.
• Do not overload the container. This can prevent the blades from rotating effectively and may damage the mechanism.
• Ensure the lid is securely locked before pulling the cord.

4. Entretien et maintenance

Proper care ensures the longevity and performance of your Turbo Chef.

Nettoyage:

• Démontage: Always disassemble the chopper completely before cleaning.
• Lames : Wash the triple-blade cutting assembly immediately after use to prevent food from drying on the blades. Use a brush to clean the blades carefully under running water. Always handle blades with extreme caution. Reattach the protective cover after cleaning and drying.
• Récipient et couvercle : The container and lid are dishwasher safe. Alternatively, wash them by hand with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Rinse thoroughly.
• Séchage: Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling or storing to prevent odors or bacterial growth.

Stockage:

Store the Turbo Chef in a clean, dry place. Always store the blade assembly with its protective cover in place to prevent accidental injury.
