BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST

• Care should be taken when removing

the food from the processing bowl by
ensuring the motor and the processing
blade or disc, have completely stopped
before disassembling. Ensure the
Speed Selection Dial is turned to the
Off position, the appliance is switched
off at the power outlet and unplugged,
before removing the lid from the bowl.
The processing bowl should then be
unlocked from the motor body and
the processing blade or disc holder
carefully removed before attempting to
remove the processed food.

• Do not operate the food processor

continuously for periods longer than 3
minutes on any setting or if processing
a heavy load. None of the recipes in
this book should require processing
for longer than 3 minutes and none are
considered a heavy load. If the food
processor is operated continuously for
too long, it should be allowed to rest for
25-30 minutes before recommencing.

• Some stiff mixtures, such as dough, may

cause the dough blade to rotate more
slowly than normal. In this unlikely
event of an excessive load, do not
operate the appliance continuously with
excessive load for more than 1 minute.

• Do not process hot or boiling liquids –

allow liquids to cool before placing into
the processing bowl.

• Do not move the food processor whilst

in operation.

• Do not leave the food processor

unattended when in use.

• Do not place any part of the food

processor in the dishwasher or
microwave oven.

• Do not process thin fluids such as

water, milk, stock, juice, etc. above the
500ml level in the processing bowl as
this could result in overflow. To reduce
the risk of overflow, always add drier or
thicker ingredients to the processing
bowl prior to adding fluids.

• Do not place anything on top of the

food processor when the lid is on, when
in use and when stored.

• Keep the food processor clean. Follow

the cleaning instructions provided in
this book.

Remove and safely discard all packaging
materials and promotional labels from your
Breville Kitchen Wizz™. Wash the food
processor bowl, lid and other attachments
in warm soapy water using a mild detergent.
Rinse and dry thoroughly. (Refer to Care &
Cleaning section of this booklet.)

ATTACHING THE FOOD
PROCESSOR BOWL

The food processor bowl and lid must be
correctly assembled for the food processor
to operate.

1. Place the motor base on a flat, dry surface

such as a bench top. Make sure that the
motor base is turned off at the power
outlet and the power cord is unplugged.

2. Place the processing bowl (with the

lid off) over the drive shaft and onto
the motor base with the handle facing
forward. Turn the processing bowl
counter-clockwise to lock into position.

3. Insert the spindle into the food

processor bowl by placing it over the
shaft in the centre of the bowl and
rotating until it falls into place.

ASSEMBLING THE STAINLESS STEEL
PROCESSING BLADE

1. Carefully remove the protective storage

cover from the processing blade.

2. Carefully Place the processing blade

over the centre of the spindle.

3. Release the processing blade so that it

drops to the bottom of the spindle and
falls into place.

4. Place the food to be processed into the

processing bowl as indicated in the recipe.

used (slicing, shredding or chipping).

2. Slide the blade (sharp side facing up)

into the side grooves of disc holder.
Continue to push the disc into place
until it covers the 2 small black tabs in
the centre of the disc holder.

3. Hold the disc by sliding your thumb and

index fingers into the holes of the disc
holder. Place the assembled disc holder
onto the spindle and release so that it falls
into place.

ASSEMBLING THE DOUGH BLADE

1. Place the dough blade over the centre of

the spindle.

2. Release the dough blade so that it drops

to the bottom of the spindle and falls
into place.

3. Place the food to be processed into the

processing bowl as indicated in the recipe.

ASSEMBLING THE WHISK

1. Place the whisk over the centre of

the spindle.

OVERLOAD PROTECTION SYSTEM

The motor is protected from burning out
by an automatic cut-out switch. If the
Food Processor is overloaded or operated
continuously for too long, the motor may
overheat and stop. To operate the food
processor again, you must switch off, unplug
and allow to cool for approximately 30
minutes. Once the motor has fully cooled, it
is ready for use again.

Some stiff mixtures, such as dough, may
cause the dough blade to rotate more slowly
than normal. In this unlikely event of an
excessive load, do not operate the appliance
continuously with excessive load for more
than 1 minute.

If this occurs again, the processing bowl
may be overloaded, so remove some of the
food and process in smaller batches.

NOTE

The Food Processor is designed so
the motor will not operate without
the processing bowl and lid correctly
locked into position. In the event that
the food processor starts without the
lid correctly locked into position,
immediately disconnect at the power
outlet and return to your local Breville
Service Centre for examination.

NOTE

The food processor will not operate
unless the processing bowl and lid
are positioned correctly and locked
into position.
