IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
❍ Read all instructions.
❍ To protect against risk of electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs
or appliance in water or other liquid.
❍ Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
❍ Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off
parts and before cleaning.
❍ Avoid contacting moving parts.
❍ Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after
the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped damaged in any manner.
Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for
examination, repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call
the appropriate toll-free number on the cover of this manual.
❍ The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended by
the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
❍ Do not use outdoors.
❍ Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
❍ Keep hands and utensils away from moving blades or discs while
processing food to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or
damage to the food processor. A scraper may be used, but must be
used only when the food processor is not running.
❍ Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
❍ To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade or discs on
base without first putting bowl properly in place.
❍ Be certain cover is securely locked in place before operating
appliance.
❍ Never feed food by hand. Always use food pusher.
❍ Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.
POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the
plug in any way.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to
prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric
shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no userserviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service
personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be
provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available
and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or
extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance,
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be
a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over
the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over.
Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified
personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.

bottom of the food to make it flat.
• Place the food cut side down in feed chute.
• Remove seeds and pits before processing.
• Select foods that are firm and not overripe.
• Remove the core from hard vegetable such as cabbage.
• When slicing thinner vegetables, cut them just short of the length of the feed
chute and stand them vertically in feed chute so they are solidly packed and
cannot turn or tilt.
• Shred hard cheeses at room temperature.
• Chill soft and semi-hard cheeses before shredding.
• After food has been processed, remove the cover and invert on countertop.

Care and Cleaning
This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified
service personnel.
Note: Do not attempt to sharpen the cutting edges of the chopping blade or
slicing and shredding disc. They are permanently sharpened at the factory
and will be ruined if sharpened.
CLEANING
Note: Before cleaning, be sure unit is turned off and cord is unplugged.
• Completely disassemble processor parts before washing.
• Rinse parts immediately after processing for easy cleanup.
Caution: The slicing and shredding disc is very sharp. Use caution when
handling and storing.
• Wipe base 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 base in liquid.
• All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher. Hand
washing of plastic parts will help to maintain the food processor’s
appearance.
• If washing by hand, fill workbowl with hot soapy water and rapidly raise
and lower the chopping blade or slicing and shredding disc up and down on
the center shaft.
Caution: The slicing and shredding disc is very sharp. Use caution when
handling and storing.
• If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on top rack only—not in
or near utensil basket.
• Some staining of parts may occur. If so, make a paste of 2 tablespoons
of baking soda and 1 tablespoon of water. Apply to stains and let stand
overnight. Rinse and dry.
• Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts
to clean.
• Do not allow chopping blade or slicing and shredding disc to soak in water
for long periods of time.
• Remember to clean the internal shaft of the chopping blade; use a baby
bottle brush to remove any clogged food particles.
• If you are having trouble closing the cover over the workbowl, apply a small
amount of vegetable oil to the rim of the cover and workbowl. This should
make the pieces work smoother when attaching the cover to the workbowl.
