Operation
Before first use, thoroughly wash all components with detergent.

As the practice of the owners of this model shows, the plastic components are quite thin. Therefore, when falling on a hard surface, as a rule, it immediately cracks. And if the glass for mixing cocktails is easy to replace with any other suitable vessel, then the chopper will have to be ordered only through a service center.
