IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)
This appliance has a polarized plug—one blade is wider than the other. As a
safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse it and try again. If it still does not fit,
contact an electrician Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of
the bottom cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to
remove the bottom cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Repair
should be done only by authorized service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
The cord of this appliance was selected to reduce the possibility of tangling in
or tripping over a longer cord. If more length is needed, use an Underwriters
Laboratories (UL)-Listed, NOM, or appropriate agency-approved extension cord
rated no less than 15-amperes and 120 volts or 6 amperes 220 volts. When using
an extension cord, do not let it drape over the working area or dangle where
someone could accidentally trip over it. Handle cord carefully for longer life;
avoid jerking or straining it at outlet and appliance connections.

NOTE ABOUT USAGE: Do not attempt to chop ice in this food processor; it will
damage the Bowl and dull the Chopping Blade. This unit will not whip cream,
beat egg whites to a desirable volume, grind coffee beans or spices with a high
oil content, or slice or shred hard-cooked eggs, marshmallows, or soft cheeses.
IMPORTANT: For your protection, this unit has an Interlock System so the
processor won't operate unless the Bowl is locked onto the Base and the Cover
is correctly locked onto the Bowl
. Be sure the Bowl Handle is turned fully onto
the Base so that the Handle lines up over the Signal Light. Do not attempt to
operate the unit without the Cover being correctly in place. Be sure the Base and
the Base is on a flat, dry, clean surface before you begin processing.
How to Slice or Shred
1. Place the Bowl over the Center Post in the
Base with the Handle at the left. Turn the
Bowl towards the right until it drops down
into place. Snap the Bowl in so that the
Handle lines up straight over the Signal
Light; be sure it locks into place (A).
2. Slide the Disc Stem onto the Center Post in
the Bowl, then carefully grasp the
Slice/Shred Disc (it’s sharp!!!) with the
desired side (Slice or Shred) up and push it
down onto the Disc Stem.
3. Place the Cover onto the Bowl so that the
Food Chute is just to the right of the Bowl
Handle. Twist the Food Chute/Cover
toward LOCK until you hear it click into
place (B).
4. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. Use
the Food Guide to help you prepare food
for slice/shred processing. Fill the Food
Chute with food and position the Pusher
over the food. If you load rounder foods
(such as carrots or cucumbers) vertically,
the Food Fingers will help keep them from
tilting for even slicing.

How To Use – English
5. Press down lightly but firmly on the Food Pusher while pressing the Pulse (or
press ON for continuous processing). NOTE: Let the Processor do the work.
Heavy pressure will not speed operation. Do not use the Processor
continuously for more than 3 minutes at a time.
6. After processing food, release the Pulse, or if you were using continuous ON,
press Pulse/OFF. Allow the Disc to stop rotating. Twist the Food Chute/Cover
toward UNLOCK to remove the Cover.
7. Grasp the Disc and lift out. Carefully pull out the Disc Stem, unlock the Bowl by
turning the Handle to the left, and lift the Bowl off.
How To Chop
The Chopping Blade speeds up many everyday tasks and is designed to chop,
crumb, grind, mince and mix quickly.
1. Place the Bowl over the Center Post in the Base with the Handle at the left.
Turn the Bowl towards the right until it drops down into place. Snap the Bowl
in so that the Handle lines up straight over the Signal Light; be sure it locks into
place (A).
2. Grasp the Chopping Blade by its center shaft and slide it
down onto the Center Post. (C)
3. Place the Cover onto the Bowl so that the Food Chute is
just to the right of the Bowl Handle. Twist the Food
Chute/Cover toward LOCK until you hear it click into place
(B).
4. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. Use the Food Guide
to help you prepare food for chopping/mincing/mixing and
crumbing.
5. Press Pulse (or ON for continuous operation). When
pulsing, hold the Pulse
position for about 2-3 seconds:
check results; repeat for desired consistency. It is better to
use several short operations rather than a single long one unless mixing
ingredients that require longer processing times.
6. After processing food, release the Pulse, or if you were using continuous ON,
press Pulse/OFF. Allow the Disc to stop rotating. Twist the Food Chute/Cover
toward UNLOCK to remove the Cover.
7. Grasp the Chopping Blade by its shaft and remove. Unlock the Bowl by turning
the Handle to the left, and lift the Bowl off. Empty the processed food.
How to Use the Dough Blade
IMPORTANT: Follow the instructions under "How to Chop" to install and remove
the Dough Blade.
1. The Dough Blade can be used to make yeast breads, pizza dough, or yeast
rolls. Use the 2 dough recipes in this manual as a guide when making bread or
pizza dough. Be sure to add liquid ingredients slowly as the dough will not
form properly if liquid is added too fast.
2. You may have to stop the unit at times to scrape down the sides of the
processing Bowl.

Before First Use
• When unpacking the product and removing packing material, handle the
Chopping Blade, and Slice/Shred Disc carefully; they are very sharp.
• Wash all parts except the Base. Be sure to read this Use & Care Book, paying
special attention to the sections on "How to Use" and "Care and Cleaning" to
learn the correct methods for taking the unit apart and cleaning.

Care & Cleaning
NOTE: Do not attempt to sharpen the cutting edges of the Chopping Blade or the
Reversible Disc. They are permanently sharpened at the factory and will be
ruined by attempted sharpening.
1. Before cleaning, be sure the unit is Off and the cord is unplugged.
2. Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy
cleanup.
3. Wipe the Base, Control area, and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Stubborn spots can be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild, nonabrasive cleaner. Do not immerse the Base in liquid.
4. All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher, top rack.
• If washing by hand, wash in hot, sudsy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
If necessary, use a small nylon bristle brush to thoroughly clean the Bowl
and Food Chute/Cover; this type of brush will also help prevent cutting
yourself on the Chopping Blade and Slice/Shred Disc.
• If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on the top rack only – not
in or near the utensil basket.
5. Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.
6. Do not fill the Bowl with boiling water or place any of the parts in boiling
water. Some foods, such as carrots, may temporarily stain the Bowl. To
remove stains, make a paste of 1 tablespoon baking soda and two
tablespoons warm water. Apply the paste to the stains and rub with a cloth.
Rinse in sudsy water and dry.
3. Do NOT use the Dough Blade to make pie crust. Use the Chopping Blade for
pie dough (see recipes).
Bread Making Tips for the Dough Blade
1. For best results, use ingredients at room temperature and be sure the butter
is soft.
2. Check the date on the yeast package to be sure it hasn’t expired. Measure
flour accurately by spooning it into a measuring cup designed for dry
ingredients. Level it off with the straight side of a knife or metal spatula. Do not
pack flour by tapping the cup when measuring.
3. Use the amount of liquid and flour in the bread recipe provided as a guide. You
can experiment with other favorite yeast bread recipes.
4. You may use bread flour, if you’d prefer. Breads will be taller.

• Hot liquids (not boiling) and hot foods can be processed in the Bowl.
• Be sure to process small amounts of liquids - 2 cups or less at a time. Larger
amounts may leak from the Bowl.
