General Chopping/Slicing:

1. Prepare your fruit or vegetable by cutting it into pieces that fit comfortably within the chosen blade's area.
2. Place the ingredient flat on the blade surface. For smaller items, use the food holder to prevent slipping and protect your hands.
3. With a swift, firm motion, press down the lid using both hands. The blades will cut the ingredient directly into the collection container.

Using Specific Blades:

• Dicing Blades (Small/Large): Ideal for creating uniform cubes of onions, tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and more for salsas, salads, or stews.
• Slicing Blades (Slicer/Fine Slicer/Wavy/Julienne): Use for thin slices of cucumbers, carrots, or potatoes. The wavy blade creates decorative cuts.
• Grating Blades (Grater/Coarse/Fine): Perfect for grating cheese, carrots, or other firm vegetables.
• Spiralizer Blades: Attach the spiralizer unit and use the various blades to create colorful veggie pasta, shapely salads, and garnishes from zucchini, carrots, or other suitable vegetables.
