To use without the bowl:
If crank handle and/or discs are inserted at this time, please remove before unfolding legs.
Turn the lid over and locate the 3 legs (2 legs on top and 1
leg in handle). The legs are secured into place with a slide
interlock. To unfold the 2 top legs (do 1 at a time), slide the
interlock out slightly to release leg.
FRONT LEGS: extend one leg as far as possible. Push the interlock down until it clicks into place in the slot. Leg should
be secure and locked into place before using.
Repeat process
on leg 2.
NOTE: If interlock is not locked into place the leg
will move on the work surface and could cause injury.
BACK LEG: (Located in the back of the handle). To unfold the
third leg, grasp the two triangular prongs on each side of the
leg and lift up. Extend the leg back as far a possible until it
is secured in the clips. The height of this leg can be adjusted
to accommodate your work space. When not using the bowl,
the height of this leg is not adjusted.
**All legs will sit at an angle and should be secured in place
before using. The extra wide surfaces of the rubber feet ensure the Genius Food Prep System stands very secure.
Now the multifunctional lid is ready for the cutting discs.
SEE SECTION FOR INSERTING CUTTING DISCS AND CRANK HANDLE ON PAGES 5-7.

To use with the bowl:
Unfold the leg (located in the handle) by grasping the two
triangular prongs on each side of the leg and lift up. Extend
the leg back as far a possible until it is secured in the clips.
If crank handle and/or discs are inserted at this time, please remove before unfolding legs.
Now the multifunctional lid is ready for the cutting discs.
SEE SECTION FOR INSERTING CUTTING DISCS AND CRANK HANDLE ON PAGE 5-7.
After cutting disc is inserted, position the multifunctional lid
on top of the bowl with clasps open.
Hook the outside edges of the clasps over the edge of the
bowl and then press fi rmly back and down in the direction
of the center of the lid until you hear them “click” in place.
Multifunctional lid should now be securely fastened to the
bowl.
The height of this leg can be adjusted to accommodate your
work space. When using the 9 cup bowl, the leg must be
extended. To do so, squeeze the two triangular prongs together and slide the extension out until it locks in place.
The multifunctional lid is fi tted with three legs that are folded away on the inside of the lid. When using a
bowl, only the leg in the back of the handle is extended. The other 2 legs (located under top) stay folded
and secured (see section on Closing Legs).

The cutting discs are extremely sharp! Use care when handling!
Attention!
Closing Legs for storage or use with bowl:
T
wo legs under top of lid:
Pull interlock up and out of se-
cured position so leg can move freely. Do the same on other
leg. Fold one leg in (does not matter which leg goes fi rst)
and then the other leg. The last leg folded needs to be secured. To do so, slide the interlock piece back into the grove
so it locks in place.
NOTE: if legs are not folded and secured the blades will not
be able to be inserted for use.
Leg on handle:
Be sure the adjustable piece is in its shortest
position. (Squeeze prongs on each side and push extension
piece down towards handle). Push leg in towards handle so
that it is resting in the handle itself.
Cutting discs and Crank handle
Your Genius Food Prep System comes with 5 cutting discs that can be used for various applications.
See
suggestions for use
chart on page 7 for some great ideas!
Here are some things to identify about each disc before using the Genius Food Prep System:
Each cutting disc has a SHARP side and a DULL side.
Each cutting disc is labeled with “THIS SIDE UP” on SHARP SIDE.
Each cutting disc is a different color.
Each cutting disc has a raised center pin on the SHARP side.
Always pick up the discs by the edges! Do not hold the stainless steel blade between fi ngers/thumbs
unless you are holding the center pin.
Attention: DISCS ARE SHARP!!

Insertion of cutting discs and crank handle:
Whether you are using the Multifunctional Lid with or without the bowl, you insert the discs the same way.
The underside of the multifunctional lid has 3 outside prongs and 1 center prong that the cutting disc fi ts
into. The unit will function properly only if the disc is inserted correctly (sharp side facing in to lid and resting
on these prongs).
Hold the multifunctional lid horizontally in one hand in front
of you (as shown).
Lay a disc of your choice in the other hand, palm up with
thumb on edge, with “THIS SIDE UP” facing you. (DULL SIDE
of disc is touching your hand, center pin is showing facing
up).
Slide your hand with the disc horizontally towards the multifunctional lid. Slide the disc close to the underside of the
lid. Continue all the way in until the disc is stopped by the
prongs. Disc should not move if inserted correctly. Turn over
lid, if necessary, to view.
NOTE: IF DISC SHAKES OR FALLS OUT BE CAREFUL NOT TO
TOUCH SHARP SIDE WHEN REINSERTING!!
Now insert the crank handle.
NOTE: The crank handle can only be inserted and secured if
the discs are inserted properly.
With disc inserted, take the crank handle and insert the
shaft into the round hole on the top of the lid. The shape of
the end of the shaft matches the shape of the center pin so
you may have to spin the crank handle around until it falls
into place. Crank should rest on the lip of the hole.
If you turn the crank handle the disc should turn with ease.
Now the Genius Food Prep System is ready for cutting!!!

Pizza Calzone
10 ½ oz. pizza dough (ready
made)
⅓ c. pizza sauce
4 oz. Gouda or mozzarella
2 slices of cooked ham
5 slices salami
10 slices pepperoni sausage
½ bell pepper
2 pepperonis, medium hot
10 black olives without stones
Pre-heat the oven to 425°F.
Prepare the pizza dough in accordance with the pack
instructions and roll out into a pizza shape.
Cover one half of the pizza with sauce, leaving a ½ inch
gap to the edge. Grate the cheese with the orange disc
and place aside. Put an even layer of ⅓ of the grated
cheese on top of the sauce. Cut the pepper in half,
remove the seeds and wash the fl esh. Then thinly slice
the pepper, pepperoni and olives with the dark green
disc and add them to the pizza half with sauce on it. Also
add the salami, sausage and ham.
Sprinkle another third of the grated cheese on top.
Fold the half of the pizza without sauce over the other
and press the edges together fi rmly. Then spread a little
of the pizza sauce on the top side of the calzone and
cover with the rest of the cheese.
Bake the pizza in the oven for 12–15 minutes.
TIP
If you bake the calzone for longer, the cheese will
be darker in color than on a regular pizza. To prevent
this, cook the pizza for 6–7 minutes, then top with the
rest of the cheese and continue cooking.
