Troubleshooting

Chopper does not start.

Ensure the motor unit is correctly and securely placed on the lid, and the lid is properly sealed on the bowl. Check that the power cord is plugged into a working outlet.

Uneven chopping results.

Do not overfill the bowl. Cut larger ingredients into smaller, uniform pieces before chopping. Use the 1-2-3 operation system in short bursts, checking consistency as you go. Ensure the blade is correctly seated.

Motor stops during operation.

The motor may have overheated. Allow it to cool down for several minutes before attempting to use it again. Ensure the ingredients are not too hard or dense for the machine's capacity.

Difficulty cleaning the blade.

Handle the blade with extreme care. While dishwasher-safe, for immediate cleaning, rinse under running water. Use a soft brush if needed, avoiding direct contact with the sharp edges. Ensure it is completely dry before reassembling or storing.
