SAFEGUARDS

At Breville we are very safety conscious. We
design and manufacture consumer products
with the safety of you, our valued customer,
foremost in mind. In addition we ask that
you exercise a degree of care when using
any electrical appliance and adhere to the
following precautions.

BREVILLE
RECOMMENDS
SAFETY FIRST

• Carefully read all instructions
before operating the food
processor for the first time
and save for future reference.

• Remove any packaging material
and promotional labels before
using the food processor for the
first time.

• Do not place the food processor
near the edge of a bench or
table during operation. Ensure
the surface is level, clean and
free of water, flour, etc. Vibration
during operation may cause the
appliance to move.

• Handle the food processor
and attachments with care ­remember the blades and discs
are razor-sharp and should be
kept out of reach of children.

• Care shall be taken when
handling the sharp cutting
blades, emptying the bowl and
during cleaning.

• Always make sure the food
processor is completely
assembled before operating.
The appliance will not operate
unless properly assembled.

• Ensure the OFF button has been
pressed, and the food processor
is switched off at the power
outlet and unplugged before
attaching the quad blade, dough
blade, disc or processing lid.

• Always secure the processing
bowl onto the motor base before
attaching the quad blade, dough
blade or discs.

• Always operate the food
processor with the processing
lid securely in position.

2

• Do not push food into the feed

chute with your fingers or other
utensils. Always use the food
pusher provided.

• Keep hands, knives and other
utensils away from moving quad
blade, dough blade or discs.

• Do not place hands or fingers in
the bowl of the food processor
unless the motor, quad blade,
dough blade or discs have come
to a complete stop.

• Ensure the OFF button has been
pressed to switch the motor off
and the appliance is switched
off at the power outlet and
unplugged before removing the
lid from the bowl.

• Do not use attachments other
than those provided with the
food processor.

• Do not attempt to operate the
food processor by any method
other than those described in
this booklet.

• Ensure the motor, blades or
discs have completely stopped
before disassembling. Ensure
the OFF button has been
pressed and the appliance is
switched off at the power outlet
and unplugged when not in use,
if left unattended and before
disassembling, cleaning or
storing.

• Care should be taken when
removing the food from the
processing bowl by ensuring
the motor, quad blade, dough
blade or disc, have completely
stopped before disassembling.
Ensure the OFF button has been
pressed to switch the motor off;
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 quad
blade, dough blade or discs
carefully removed before
attempting to remove the
processed food.

• Please do not crush ICE in the
large or small processing bowls.
This will cause damage to the
blades (quad or mini blade).
We recommend that you use a
blender for ice crushing.

• Some stiff mixtures, such
as dough may cause the
processing blade to rotate
more slowly than normal. If this
happens, do not process for
longer than 1 minute.

• Do not process hot or boiling
liquids - allow liquids to
cool before placing into the
processing bowl.

3

• Do not use the food processor

on slippery, unstable or uneven
surfaces such as a sink drain
board.

• To protect against electric shock
do not immerse power cord,
plug or motor base in water or
any other liquid.

• 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 microwave
oven.

• Do not fill bowl above marked
liquid levels or 11 cup dry level
(shredding). Always add drier
or thicker ingredients to the
processing bowl prior to adding
fluids.

• Never remove the lid while the
processor is operating. Always
use the POWER/OFF button
to stop the machine before
removing the lid.

• Keep the appliance clean.
Follow the cleaning instructions
provided in this book.

Assembly

BEFORE FIRST USE

• Before using your food processor for the first
time, remove any packaging material and
promotional labels. Ensure the POWER button
is OFF and the food processor is unplugged.

• Be careful when handling the blades and discs
as they are extremely sharp.

• Wash the processing bowl, processing lid
and all attachments in warm soapy water with
a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The
attachments may be washed in the dishwasher.

• When first using your food processor, you may
notice an odour coming from the motor. This is
normal and will dissipate with use.

• Always use the food processor on a dry, level
work surface.

ASSEMBLY

1. Position the processing bowl onto the motor

base with the handle in line with the ALIGN
HANDLE graphic on the motor base.

2. Turn the bowl clockwise until the handle
locks to the front. The processing bowl
should now be securely locked into position.
The food processor will not operate unless
the bowl is locked into position correctly.

3. The spindle is required when using ALL
discs and blades EXCEPT the mini bowl
and mini blade. Failing to use the spindle
will damage the parts, and incorrect use this
way may cause the parts to fuse together.

4. Before placing the lid onto the processing
bowl, position the spindle over the coupling
in the center of the processing bowl. Then
position your chosen blade or disc over it.
The blades drop down lower than the discs.

9

5. Place lid onto the processing bowl so that
the ALIGN | LOCK graphics on the lid
and handle align. To LOCK the lid, hold
the chute and turn clockwise so that the
handle parts align. Locking the lid correctly
will engage the interlocking safety catch
on the handle, and allow the motor to run.

MINI PROCESSING BOWL

• The mini processing bowl fits inside the

main bowl.

• The mini processing blades give you

maximum control for small quantities.

• Do not use the spindle, or the processing discs.

• The mini blades cannot be used in the main

processing bowl.

Functions

OPERATION

• The food processor will only operate when
the processing bowl, lid and large pusher are
correctly assembled. This engages the safety
interlock, and allows the motor to run.

• The POWER | OFF button illuminates red
when the machine is connected to power and
is ready to run.

• The START | PAUSE button allows the motor
to run continuously until pressed again. If the
lid, bowl or large pusher are removed while
the motor is running, the button will flash. The
motor will resume running when the bowl, lid
and large pusher are assembled and the safety
interlock is engaged, the button light will be
solid (no longer flashing).

• The momentary PULSE button is ideal for
processing foods that need sudden bursts of
power. It also encourages ingredients to move
around the bowl. PULSE is also best when
processing foods that only require processing
for a short period of time.

• Use a combination of the START | PAUSE
and PULSE buttons for control when
processing food.

• The chute has a MAX CHUTE FILL graphic to
indicate the maximum volume of food that can
be placed in the chute for the pusher to activate
the safety locking catch.

• After processing, wait until the blades/discs
have stopped moving before unlocking the
lid. To ensure safe handling, turn off at the
POWER button and unplug at the power outlet
before handling the blades.

• When removing blades/discs, lift by carefully
grip the plastic hub in the centre.
