General safety instructions
Risk of electric shock!
If the power cable (4) of this appliance is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer, its customer
service or a similarly qualified person, in order to avoid
any possible danger.
Never open the housing of the Mini Chopper. This does
not contain any replaceable parts. Opening the housing
can expose you to the risk of electric shock.
If you notice any smoke, unusual noises or strange
smells, switch off the appliance immediately and remove
the plug from the mains socket. If this occurs, do not
continue to use the appliance and have it checked out by
an expert. Never inhale smoke from a possible
appliance fire. If you do inadvertently inhale smoke, seek
SilverCrest SMZG500 A1
8 - English
medical attention. Smoke inhalation can be damaging to
your health.
Make sure that the power cable (4) cannot be damaged
by sharp edges or hot spots.
Make sure that the power cable (4) cannot get crushed
or squashed.
The appliance must always be disconnected from the
mains when left unsupervised and before assembly,
disassembly or cleaning.
When disconnecting the power cable (4) from the mains
socket, always pull on the mains plug and never on the
power cable (4) itself.
If you notice visible damage to the Mini Chopper or the
power cable (4), switch off the device, remove the mains
plug from the mains socket, and contact customer service
(see "Warranty information" on page 17).
Only connect the Mini Chopper to a properly installed,
easily accessible mains socket with the same mains
voltage as detailed on the name plate. After connecting
the appliance, the mains socket must still be easily
accessible so that you can remove the mains plug quickly
in the event of an emergency.
Never immerse the motor unit (2), the power cable (4) or
the mains plug in water or other liquids. If liquid does
penetrate the motor unit (2), disconnect the mains plug
SilverCrest SMZG500 A1
English - 9
from the mains socket immediately and contact customer
service (see "Warranty information" on page 17).
Never operate the Mini Chopper with wet hands.
Warning about property damage
Do not leave the Mini Chopper unattended while running
so you can react quickly in the case of hazards.
If the cutting blades (5) or the emulsifying disc (6) only
turn slowly or not at all, switch the Mini Chopper off
immediately, disconnect the power cable (4) from the
mains socket and check whether the cutting blades (5) or
the emulsifying disc (6) are blocked or the food is too
tough. Also check that you have assembled the Mini
Chopper correctly.
Please note the maximum fill level of 500 ml - see the fill
level indicator (10).
The Mini Chopper has a plastic non-slip ring (9). If
necessary, place something underneath the device, as
work-surfaces are sometimes treated with detergents
which could attack or even dissolve the plastic non-slip
ring (9).
Risk of overheating and fire
Only ever operate the Mini Chopper with the glass bowl
(7) filled and never empty.
SilverCrest SMZG500 A1
10 - English
If you wish to whip cream, fill the glass bowl (7) with
cream to at least the 200 ml level.
Note the SO times (short operating times). See the
technical specifications on page 5.
Do not use the appliance in direct sunlight or near
heating appliances (heaters, stoves, ovens etc.).
Do not place hot or boiling foods in the glass bowl (7).
Otherwise the motor unit (2) could overheat or the glass in
the bowl (7) could crack. Always allow hot or boiling
foods to cool down first before adding them to the glass
bowl (7) and processing them with the Mini Chopper.
Risk of injury
Before changing accessories or fittings which move when
the unit is running, switch it off and disconnect it from the
mains socket.
Never open the lid (3) or remove the motor unit (2) while
the Mini Chopper is running. Otherwise, rotating bits of
food may be thrown out with great force.
The cutting blades (5) are extremely sharp. Be very
careful when washing and handling the cutting
blades (5).
The cutting blades (5) continue to turn immediately after
being switched off. Wait for the cutting blades (5) to
come to a complete standstill before removing the motor
unit (2), opening the lid (3) or taking other steps.

For meat, remove tendons, bones and skin.
For herbs, remove the stalks.
Cut solid food (e.g. meat, fish, vegetables) into chunks of around 2 to 3 cm square.
Remove the outer shell of nuts.
Cream should be kept as cool as possible so it whips better.
Setting up and filling the Mini Chopper

down with a scraper, for example, and continue chopping.
Removing the chopped food / whipped cream
1. Unplug the mains plug (4) from the mains socket.
2. Remove the motor unit (2) and the lid (3).
3. Remove the cutting blades (5) or the emulsifying disc (6) from the glass bowl (7).
Risk of injury
The cutting blades (5) are extremely sharp. Be very careful when handling the cutting
blades (5).
4. Remove the food. You can use a scraper, for example.
5. Clean the lid (3), cutting blades (5), emulsifying disc (6) and glass bowl (7). For more on this, please
refer to the "Maintenance / cleaning" section on page 14.
After use
After use, clean the Mini Chopper as described in the "Maintenance / cleaning" section below. Then store
the Mini Chopper in a safe place away from dust.
Maintenance / cleaning
It is recommended that you clean the Mini Chopper before first use and immediately after each use so
that no remnants of food can set in the glass bowl (7) and on the cutting blades (5) or the emulsifying
disc (6).
SilverCrest SMZG500 A1
English - 15
Risk of electric shock!
Always remove the mains plug from the socket before cleaning. Failure to do so could
cause an electric shock.
Do not pour or spray any liquids onto the motor unit (2) and do not immerse it in water
or other liquids. This could cause short circuits which could cause electric shocks or burns.
Warning about property damage
Do not use abrasive or astringent detergents or tools which could scratch the surface of the
motor unit (2). This could cause damage to the motor unit (2) housing.
Clean the motor unit (2), the plastic non-slip ring (9) and the power cable (4) with a dry or damp cloth.
You can wash up the lid (3), the glass bowl (7), the cutting blades (5) and the emulsifying disc (6)
normally or put them in the dishwasher.
Risk of injury
The cutting blades (5) are extremely sharp. Be very careful when washing and handling the
cutting blades (5).
Storing the Mini Chopper
Store the Mini Chopper in a safe place away from dust. It is best to keep it assembled and leave the
cutting blades (5) and emulsifying disc (6) in the glass bowl (7). This keeps all the individual parts to hand
so they do not get lost and keeps the cutting blade (5) safely stored away so that nobody can
accidentally cut themselves.
