Text of the manual
Move over electric food processor! The Extra Chef is an extra hand in the kitchen saving you time and space.
You can chop, dice puree, blend and whip with the simple pull of the cord. Its larger size makes it perfect for
daily use. The pull cord mechanism spins the triple blades or paddle whisk attachments. The blades chop and
puree fruit, vegetables, herbs, nuts, garlic, and more; while the whisk blends up batters, sauces, marinades, dips
and dressings. Use the funnel attachment for precise adding of liquids and the measurements etched into the
1.35L base to monitor your contents.

Features
Benefits
versatile and quick
and easy to use
•
The Extra Chef has curved sharp blades for fast chopping of vegetables, herbs and
fruits, a paddle whisk for mixing and whisking and a funnel for adding liquids while
mixing.
Pull Cord
•
It is highly efficient, operates quietly and complements the TurboChef ® and Smooth
ChopperTM by using the same pull cord cover
Large capacity
•
The container has a total capacity of 1.35L with graduations up to 1.2L; and is
transparent to make it easy to check the preparation at each step. The measurements
on the container are in ml and oz graduations, making it easy to measure the
ingredients during preparation.
The combination of the 3 curved blades and the speed given by the pull cord cover
ensures that you can cut fruits and vegetables quickly into very small pieces and that
the food doesn’t get stuck or blocked in between the blade and the base. It can cut up
to 288 cuts in 15 seconds
Stable
•
The shape of the container together with the pull cord cover provides good stability
while operating and the anti-skid rim on the container base helps to hold the
container securely in place while operating.
Ergonomic Grip
•
The pull cord cover is connected to the adaptor ring by bayonet closure, and likewise
a bayonet closure secures the adaptor ring to the base. The pull cord cover with
ergonomic grip ensures a comfortable, firm grip of the Extra Chef while using the
product.
Built in Funnel
•
The adaptor ring has a small opening with a soft cap. A funnel with a maximum
capacity of 50ml is supplied, which fits into the opening in the adaptor ring and
provides for the addition of liquid components during processing. It offers an easy
dosing system for adding liquid thanks to the measuring lines at every 15, 30 and
50ml. The funnel has a position closed for measuring, and a position open for pouring
while mixing.
Detachable blade &
whisk
•
You can replace the blades with a paddle whisk attachment. The paddle whisk has the
perfect shape to prepare mayonnaise, vinaigrette and sauces. Create smooth and
creamy recipes easily, as the paddle whisk shape incorporates air in the ingredients
while rotating, creating light, airy preparations.
Compact storage
•
For storage, all parts fit inside the Extra Chef: blades axle with its protector placed on
the pin, whisk upside down and funnel on the side and adaptor ring and cover locked
on top of them.
To Use
To assemble:
•
Make sure the anti-skid rim is assembled on the outside bottom of the Extra Chef container.
•
Place the container on the countertop. Remove the blade protector from the blade axle, carefully as blades are
sharp. Position the blade axle or the paddle whisk in the centre of the container over the pin.
•
Place ingredients in the container. To ensure best performance, fill to a maximum of 250g solid food.
•
Place the adaptor ring on the Extra Chef container by screwing the bayonet clockwise until you feel the adaptor
ring is locked on the container.
•
Before placing the pull cord cover, make sure the blades axle or paddle whisk are well centred in the container.
•
Place the pull cord cover on the adaptor ring by screwing the bayonet clockwise until you feel the cover is
locked on the adaptor ring.
•
Place the Extra Chef on the countertop. Hold the Extra Chef firmly by placing one hand on the cover and with
the other hand pull the cord horizontally in fast movements. The first pull should be a strong pull in order to
avoid any blocking. If blocking occurs, shake the product. This should be done for all types of food (soft or hard).
As the Extra Chef has an anti-slip rim under its container, it will not slide around while you are pulling the cord
(make sure countertop is clean and dry). After 2 or 3 pulls, take the Extra Chef in both hands and shake it to
regroup ingredients, place it back on the countertop and continue pulling until you have reached the desired
result.
•
To use the funnel, open the soft cap in the adaptor ring and turn it on the side. Place the funnel in the recess
opening. The funnel has a position closed for measuring, and a position open for pouring while mixing. This is
indicated by the symbol on the funnel. The funnel has a capacity of 50ml and measurements as indicated inside
the funnel (15ml, 30ml and 50ml). To ensure that you can easily continue pulling the pull cord while having the
funnel in place, position the pull cord cover in the adaptor ring with the pull cord at an angle of 90° or 180° with
the funnel. Then screw the bayonet clockwise to fix the pull cord cover in the adaptor ring.
To disassemble:
•
Take the cover off by removing the complete top cover (adaptor ring and pull cord cover) and remove the
blades or the paddle whisk carefully before scraping out the food.
WARNING!! Avoid touching the blades as they are extremely sharp.
Tips for Use:

•
By removing the complete top cover (adaptor ring and pull cord cover) and replacing by the Speedy Chef cover
(not part of the set) you can use the Extra Chef also for whipping cream and egg whites. This way a complete
whipping and whisking solution is offered to the consumer. It beats, whips and whisks cream, egg whites,
pancakes, batter and omelets faster – much quicker and quieter than an electrical beater.
Care:
•
The Extra Chef is not recommended for the exclusive use of abrasive ingredient preparations (dried biscuits,
corn flakes) as this will damage the inside surface with fine scratches: the outlook of the product on the bottom
and sidewalls becomes hazy. It is also recommended to add salt only at the end of the recipe after blending or
chopping.
•
The Extra Chef blades should not be used for crushing and chopping very hard items such as ice, as this will
damage the product and could cause injury.
•
Always start off with pulling in fast movements so that the mechanism does not get blocked.
•
Do not over pull the cord to the very end as this is not necessary to obtain a fine result.
Make sure to place the handle back in the pull cord cover correctly. If the handle is turned upside down, do not
force it into the cover: turn it back 180° and it will place itself smoothly in the cover.
•
Before putting the cover on the container, always make sure the rim of the container is perfectly clean to
prevent food from sticking together the container and the cover.
•
The mechanism in the top cover should not be screwed or unscrewed as this will damage it.
•
Do not overflow with oil and always take care to wait a few seconds before removing and putting the cover
upside down so that oil doesn’t get into the cover.
•
Do not use metallic utensils, which can damage the material of the container. Do not use the Silicone Spatulas
on the blades as this will damage the Spatulas. To scrape the food off the blades, use the reverse side of a knife.
•
Blades are not suitable for chopping ice
•
Tupperware recommends hand washing and towel drying with a soft cloth to retain the products appearance
•
Blades are very sharp – keep out of reach of children
•
Do not blend hot liquids.
•
Never carry the Extra Chef by the handle of the cord.
•
Smaller parts do result in easier cutting and faster results, especially for the (semi) hard food. Make sure the
product is properly closed and locked before starting to pull.
•
When making a mixture of food ingredients with cold liquids, always prepare solid food first, adding the liquid
only at the end of the preparation.
