IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances especially when children are present, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
To protect against electrical shock, do not submerge the mini chopper or allow the AC cord to come in contact with water or other liquids.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from the outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
Avoid contact with moving parts.
Do not operate any electrical appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including the stove.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner.
Keep hands and utensils away from the cutting blade while using to prevent the possibility of severe injury to persons or damage to the unit. A scraper may be used but must be used ONLY when the unit is not running.
Blades are sharp; handle carefully.
Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
To reduce the risk of injury, never place the cutting blade on the base without first putting the bowl properly in place.
Be certain the cover is securely locked in place before operating the appliance.
Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

PRODUCT MAY VARY SLIGHTLY FROM ILLUSTRATIONS

Toastmaster-TM-61MC-Mini-Food-Chopper-features

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. It may be plugged into an AC electrical outlet (ordinary household current). Do not use any other electrical outlet.

CORD PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, reverse the plug and try again. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
- A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord.
- Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:

The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and
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.

LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS

Never pull or yank on a cord or the appliance.
To insert the plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into an outlet.
To disconnect the appliance, grasp the plug and remove it from the outlet.
Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord replaced.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.

DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE, OR IF THE APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.

IMPORTANT

During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/or a slight odor. This is normal and should quickly disappear. It will not recur after the appliance has been used a few more times.

USING YOUR MINI CHOPPER

BEFORE USING: Wash the container, lid, and blade in the dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water and let them dry completely. Do not immerse the base in water or any other liquid; use a damp sponge or cloth to wipe clean.

TO ASSEMBLE: Be sure the unit is unplugged before assembling.

Place the unit on a flat surface. Rubber feet will prevent the unit from slipping during operation. Place the container onto the base, aligning the plastic tabs on the bottom inner rim of the container with the locking slots on the base. Grasp the top of the container apply slight pressure and turn the container until the tabs lock into place.
Slide the blade hub over the container shaft. CAUTION: Be careful when installing the blade hub, as the blade is very sharp.
Place lid on the container; press down gently, slide the extended tab on the lid onto the groove in the base slot, and turn the lid until the raised dot marker on the lid aligns with the dot marker on the base. The lid will snap and lock into place.

Note: For safety, this unit has an interlock system that will prevent unit operation if the lid is removed. This unit will not operate unless the extended tab on the container is correctly located within the base slot. Do not attempt to start the unit without the lid being correctly positioned and locked.

TO USE: Remove lid and place up to 1 ½ cups of dry food into the container. Depending on the type of food, amounts may vary. Divide large amounts of food into small portions for processing. Secure lid, so that it is locked into place. Press and hold the Off/Pulse button for the desired time. When you release the button, the mini-chopper will stop. Watch carefully to avoid over-processing, as most food-chopping takes less than 6 seconds. If the mini-chopper fails to operate, check to ensure that the container and lid are properly locked into place. Wait for the blade to stop before removing the lid. Unplug the unit and remove the lid. Lift the blade out before emptying the contents of the container.
