FAQs
Is the glass bowl freezer safe?
While the borosilicate glass is shock-resistant, it is designed for food preparation and storage in the fridge, not for long-term freezing.
Can I crush ice in this chopper?
The Tefal Choppeo is designed for food ingredients. Using it for hard items like large ice cubes may cause premature wear to the blades.
How do I ensure the bowl is locked correctly?
Rotate the bowl until you feel a firm click and the safety indicator aligns with the markings on the motor base.
Are replacement parts available?
Yes, Tefal offers a 15-year repairability promise, meaning you can source spare parts like blades or bowls through authorized service centers.
Can the blades go in the dishwasher?
Yes, the stainless steel blades and the glass bowl are dishwasher safe for convenience.
Troubleshooting
The device will not start when the button is pressed.
Ensure the glass bowl is correctly locked into the base unit; the double-bowl safety sensor must detect the bowl is seated properly to allow power flow.
The ingredients are unevenly chopped.
Do not overfill the bowl beyond the 1L line. Pulse the motor in short bursts rather than holding it down continuously to allow ingredients to settle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Choppeo involves ensuring the central blade spindle is seated correctly at the base of the glass bowl before adding ingredients. Place the bowl on the motor unit, aligning the safety tabs, and press down until you feel it click into place. The anti-slip pad should always be used underneath the glass bowl during operation to prevent movement on granite or wood surfaces. When it comes to care, the glass bowl and the stainless steel blades are dishwasher safe. However, for the longest lifespan, hand washing the blades with warm soapy water is recommended to maintain their sharpness. Always wipe the motor base unit with a soft, damp cloth and never submerge it in water.
