Pulse Paddle
The Pulse control is a paddle that allows the machine
to run only while it is being pressed. This capability
provides more accurate control of the duration and
frequency of processing. Unless otherwise specified, a
pulse should be about one second.
With the machine properly assembled and engaged,
and ingredients in the work bowl, press the Pulse
paddle repeatedly as needed. The white LED light will
illuminate upon activation.
MACHINE FUNCTIONS
Using the Chopping/Mixing/Dough Blade
Chopping
• For raw ingredients: Peel, core and/or remove
seeds and pits. Food should be cut into even,
½- to 1-inch pieces. Foods cut into same size
pieces produce the most even results.
• Pulse food in 1-second increments to chop. For the
finest chop, either hold the Pulse paddle down or
press High or Low to run the machine continuously.
Watch ingredients closely to achieve desired
consistency and scrape the work bowl as necessary. Low speed is recommended for making
doughs and batters. High speed is recommended
for most other chopping, processing and slicing/
shredding tasks.
Puréeing
• To purée fresh fruits or cooked fruits/vegetables:
Ingredients should be cut into 1-inch pieces; a
smooth purée is best achieved when all the pieces
are equal in size. Pulse to initially chop and then
process on High or Low until food is puréed; scrape
the work bowl as necessary. NOTE: Do not use
this method to purée cooked white potatoes.
• To purée solids for a soup or sauce: Strain the
solids from the liquid and process the solids alone.
Add cooking liquid and process as needed.
5
Dough
• Always use Low speed when kneading. Be sure
that the medium pusher lock is in the locked position when kneading dough to avoid it from moving
around — some vibration is still normal. Always
start the food processor before adding liquid. First
process the dry ingredients (flour, salt, etc.) and
then add the liquid in a slow, steady stream, or
through the drizzle hole in the pusher, allowing the
dry ingredients to absorb it. If liquid is added too
quickly, wait until ingredients in the work bowl have
mixed, then add remaining liquid slowly (do not turn
off the machine). Never use more than 2½ cups
of white/all-purpose flour when preparing a
yeasted dough.
Using the Reversible Slicing and Shredding Discs
• The slicing side of the discs makes whole slices.
It slices fruits and vegetables, cooked meat and
semi-frozen raw meat. The shredding side of
the discs shreds most firm and hard cheeses.
It also shreds vegetables like potatoes, carrots
and zucchini.
• Always pack food in the feed tube evenly for slicing
and shredding. The food will dictate the amount of
pressure: Use light pressure for soft foods, medium
pressure for medium foods and firm pressure for
harder foods. Always process with even pressure.
RECOMMENDED MAXIMUM
WORK BOWL CAPACITY
• For round fruits or vegetables: Remove a thick
slice on the bottom of the food so that it sits
upright in the feed tube. If food does not fit in the
feed tube, cut in half or quarters to fit. Process with
even pressure.
• For small ingredients like mushrooms, radishes or
strawberries: Trim the ends so the food sits upright
in the feed tube.
• When slicing or shredding cheese, be sure that the
cheese is well chilled.
• To shred leafy vegetables like lettuce or spinach:
Roll leaves together and stand them up in feed
tube. Process with even pressure.
NOTE: Always use the pusher when slicing or
shredding. Never put your hands in the feed
tube while unit is running.

CLEANING, STORAGE
AND MAINTENANCE
• Keep your Cuisinart® Core Custom™ 10-Cup
Food Processor ready to use on the kitchen
counter. When not in use, leave it unplugged.
Store accessories in the provided storage hub,
inside the work bowl.
• Keep the blade and discs out of the reach
of children.
• All parts except the housing base are dishwasher
safe but on the top rack only. Due to intense
water heat, washing the work bowl, cover and
accessories on the bottom rack may cause damage
over time. Insert the cover with the feed tube facing
up to ensure proper cleaning. Insert the work bowl
and pushers upside down for drainage. Remember
to unload the dishwasher carefully when removing
sharp blade and discs.
• To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, cover,
pushers and blade or disc immediately after use
so food won’t dry on them. Be sure to position the
pushers and work bowl upside down for drainage.
If food lodges in the pusher, remove it by running
water through it, or use a bottle brush.
• If you wash the blade and discs by hand, do it
carefully. When handling, use the plastic hubs.
Avoid leaving them in soapy water where they may
disappear from sight. If necessary, use a brush.
• The work bowl is made of Tritan
metal components. It should not be placed in a
microwave oven.
• The housing base may be wiped clean with a
soapy, nonabrasive cloth or sponge. Be sure to dry
it thoroughly.
• If the feet leave spots on the counter, spray them
with a spot remover and wipe with a damp sponge.
• If any trace of the spot remains, repeat the procedure and wipe the area with a damp sponge and
nonabrasive cleaning powder.
IMPORTANT: Always use the provided storage
hub. Never store any blade or disc on the stem
adapter. No blade or disc should be placed on
the shaft except when the processor is about to
be used.
MAINTENANCE: Any other servicing should be
performed by an authorized service representative.

FOR YOUR SAFETY
• Like all powerful electrical appliances, a food
processor should be handled with care. Follow
these guidelines to protect yourself and your family
from misuse that could cause injury.
• Handle and store metal blade and discs carefully
utilizing the provided storage hub. Their cutting
edges are very sharp.
• Never put stem adapter, (blade or discs on the stem
adapter) until the work bowl is locked in place.
• Always be sure that the blade or disc is down on
the stem adapter as far as it will go.
• Always insert the stem adapter with metal blade in
the work bowl before putting ingredients in bowl.
• When slicing or shredding food, always use
the pusher. Never put your fingers or spatula into
feed tube.
• Always wait for the blade or disc to stop spinning
before you remove the pusher assembly or cover
from the work bowl.
• Always unplug the unit before removing food,
cleaning or putting on or taking off parts.
• Always remove work bowl from base of machine
before you remove the chopping/mixing/dough
blade or slicing/shredding disc.
• Be careful to prevent the chopping blade or slicing/
shredding disc from falling out of the work bowl
when emptying the bowl. Remove the stem adapter
with blade before tilting the work bowl.
TECHNICAL DATA
The motor in your food processor operates on a
standard line operating current. The appropriate voltage
and frequency for your machine are shown on a label
on the bottom of the base.
An automatic temperature-controlled circuit breaker in
the motor ensures complete protection against motor
burnout. If the processor runs for an exceptionally long
time when chopping, mixing or kneading a thick or
heavy mixture in successive batches, the motor may
overheat. If this happens, the processor will stop. Turn
it off and wait for the motor to cool before proceeding.
It will usually cool within 10 minutes. In extreme cases,
it could take an hour.
Safety switches prevent the machine from operating
when the work bowl or the cover is not locked into
position. The motor stops within seconds when the
motor is turned off; and when the pusher assembly is
removed, a fast-stop circuit also enables the motor to
stop within seconds.
Cuisinart offers a Limited Three-Year Warranty on the
entire machine.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Food Processing
1. Problem: The food is unevenly processed.
Solution:
• The ingredients should be cut evenly into ½- to
1-inch pieces before processing.
• Process in batches to avoid overloading.
2. Problem: Slices are uneven or slanted.
Solution:
• Place evenly cut food, cut side down, into the
feed tube.
• Apply even pressure on the pusher.
3. Problem: Food falls over in feed tube.
Solution:
• Feed tube should be packed full for best results.
4. Problem: Some food remains on top of the disc.
Solution:
• It is normal for small pieces to remain; cut
remaining bits by hand and add to processed
ingredients.
5. Problem: Metal chopping/mixing/dough blade
cannot be removed from the stem adapter.
Solution:
• Place the blade / stem adapter assembly in a
bowl filled with warm tap water. This should help
loosen trapped food particles between the blade
and stem adapter. To see if food has loosened,
remove assembly from water by lifting from the
stem. Holding the stem, place the blade assembly
on counter top and press down on stem. This
should free the blade from the stem. If blade still
cannot removed, return to warm water and repeat
above steps.
Dough Kneading
1. Problem: Motor slows down.
Solution:
• Amount of dough may exceed maximum capacity
of your food processor. Remove half and process
in two batches.
• Dough may be too wet (see number 8). If motor
speeds up, continue processing. If not, add more
flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the motor
speeds up. Process until dough cleans the sides
of the work bowl.
2. Problem: Blade doesn’t incorporate ingredients.
Solution:
• Always start the food processor before adding
liquid. Add liquid in a slow, steady stream, or
through the drizzle hole in the pusher, allowing
the dry ingredients to absorb it. If too much liquid
is added, wait until ingredients in the work bowl
have mixed, then add remaining liquid slowly (do
not turn off the machine). Pour liquid onto dough
as it passes under feed tube opening; do not pour
liquid directly onto bottom of the work bowl.
3. Problem: Blade rises in work bowl.
Solution:
• Excessively sticky dough can cause blade to rise.
Carefully reinsert blade and immediately add 2
tablespoons of flour through the feed tube while
the machine is running.
4. Problem: Dough doesn’t clean inside of the
work bowl.
Solution:
• Amount of dough may exceed maximum capacity
of your food processor. Remove half and process
in two batches.
• Dough may be too dry (see number 7).
• Dough may be too wet (see number 8).
5. Problem: Nub of dough forms on top of blade and
does not become uniformly kneaded.
Solution:
• Stop machine, carefully remove dough, divide it
into 3 pieces and redistribute them evenly in the
work bowl.
6. Problem: Dough feels tough after kneading.
Solution:
• Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces and redistribute
evenly in bowl. Process 10 seconds or until uniformly soft and pliable.
7. Problem: Dough is too dry.
Solution:
• While machine is running, add water, 1
tablespoon at a time, until dough cleans the
inside of the bowl.
8. Problem: Dough is too wet.
Solution:
• While machine is running, add flour, 1
tablespoon at a time, until dough cleans the
inside of the bowl.
Technical
1. Problem: The motor does not start.
Solution:
• There is a safety interlock to prevent the motor
from starting if it is not properly assembled. Make
sure the work bowl and work bowl cover are
securely locked into position.
• If the motor still will not start, check the power
cord and outlet.
9
2. Problem: The food processor shuts off
during operation.
Solution:
• The cover may have become unlocked; check to
make sure it is securely in position.
• A safety protector in the motor prevents the motor
from overheating, which is caused by excessive
strain. Press the Off control button and wait 20 to
30 minutes to allow the food processor to cool off
before resuming.
3. Problem: The motor slows down during operation.
Solution:
• This is normal as some heavier loads (e.g., slicing/
shredding cheese) may require the motor to work
harder. Simply reposition the food in the feed tube
and try again.
• The maximum load capacity may have been
exceeded. Remove some of the ingredients and
continue processing.
4. Problem: The food processor vibrates/moves
around the countertop during processing.
Solution:
• Make sure the rubber feet at the bottom of the
unit are clean and dry. Also make sure that the
maximum load capacity is not being exceeded.
• This is normal as some heavier loads (e.g., slicing/
shredding cheese) may require the motor to
work harder.

Cheddar-Chive Biscuits
These biscuits have a deeply golden and audibly crackly exterior that is reminiscent of biting into
a salty, buttery cheese wafer that dissolves in your mouth. Onion-y chives cut the richness of the
Cheddar, making these utterly addictive.
Yield: 8 biscuits
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces good-quality Cheddar cheese,
preferably extra-sharp
2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour,
plus more for shaping the biscuits
2 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
1½ teaspoons granulated sugar
2½ teaspoons baking powder
1¾ teaspoons kosher salt
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Insert the fine shredding disc into the work bowl of the food processor. Shred the Cheddar on
High. Reserve.
2. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the food processor. Add the flour, cornmeal,
sugar, baking powder, salt, and pepper and process on Low for 10 seconds to sift. Add 10
tablespoons of the cold cubed butter and pulse just until the mixture starts to resemble coarse
crumbs with pea-size bits of butter strewn throughout. Add the reserved shredded Cheddar
and chives and pulse 4 to 5 times to incorporate. Add the buttermilk and pulse a few times
more to form a shaggy dough.
3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. With floured hands, pat the dough into an
8-inch x 4-inch rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds, as you would a letter. Start with a short end
and fold a third of the dough down over the center, then fold the other third up to overlap.
Turn the dough a quarter clockwise and pat into another 8-inch x 4-inch rectangle. Fold in
thirds a second time. (The folding process builds structure for tall biscuits with lots of flaky
layers.) Turn the dough a quarter clockwise again and pat into a final 8-inch x 4-inch rectangle,
about 1 inch thick. Square the sides as best you can with your hands or a bench scraper.
4. Use a sharp knife to cut the rectangle into eight 2-inch squares (a 4 x 2 grid). Space out the
biscuits onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and place in the freezer for 30 minutes to chill.
5. While the dough is chilling, set an oven rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to
425°F. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
6. Brush the tops of the chilled biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with flake sea salt, if
desired. Bake in the preheated oven until the tops are deeply golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet. Serve warm or at room
temperature.
