Tips and Techniques
Processing Charts
• For a more uniform consistency,
start with pieces of food that
are similar in size. Cut food
into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces
before processing with
chopping/mixing blade and
leave room in bowl for the
food to be tossed around.
• This food processor is
excellent to chop, mix, slice,
or shred most foods. However,
to maintain peak performance,
do not use your food
processor for the following:
grinding grain, coffee beans,
or spices; slicing frozen meats;
kneading dough; or crushing
ice.
• When chopping foods, pulsing
on and off will produce the
best results.
• Operating time will depend
on quantity of food being
processed. Most foods
can be sliced, chopped, or
shredded in seconds. If unit is
operated continuously for an
extended period of time, let the
processor rest about 4 minutes
before continuing.
• Do not puree or mash starchy
vegetables like potatoes as
they are easily overprocessed
and will become gummy.
• To slice or shred cheese, use
only firm cheese like Cheddar
or Swiss that has been chilled
for at least 30 minutes.
Cheese should be processed
immediately after being
removed from the refrigerator.
Soft cheese like mozzarella
should be placed in the
freezer for 30 minutes prior to
processing to ensure it is firm
enough for shredding.
• The reversible slicing/shredding
disc has a slicing blade on one
side and shredding teeth on
the other. The name stamped
on the blade, facing up, is the
function selected. Place on
motor shaft with desired
cutting edge facing up.
• To julienne vegetables, slice
and then remove from bowl.
Restack the vegetables. Pack
into food chute with slices
vertical. Slice again to make
matchstick-cut vegetables.
Disc attachments are reversible and labeled. The label should face
up for the desired function. When using disc attachments, do not
process past the MAX LEVEL on the bowl.
ATTACHMENT FOODS

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSE
Unit does not operate
on any speed or Pulse.
Food is not sliced or
shredded uniformly.
Unit stops and will
not come back on.
Unit has a burning smell. • There may be a residue left on the motor from the manufacturing process, causing a slight odor
Motor seems weak. • Are you using the recommended food size and quantity to be processed? Refer to the Food Processing
Cheese is not shredding well. • Cheese should be processed immediately after being removed from the refrigerator. Soft cheese like
Vegetables are not
shredding or slicing.
Food particles stuck in the
back of the food chute above
the handle.
• Is the unit plugged in? Does the outlet work?
• Is the lid latched in place? See “How to Use” sections. Place lid on bowl, making sure to align the pour
spout on the lid with the pour spout on the bowl.
• Is the large food pusher in the chute? The large food pusher must be in place to operate.
• Is the food chute overfilled? Do not add food above the MAX fill line. The large food pusher must be in the
food chute to operate.
• Packing too much food in the food chute or pushing too hard on the food pusher may cause the
processed food to be irregulary sliced or shredded. Refer to the Food Processing Charts for recommended
sizes and quantities.
• Is the lid latched in place? See “How to Use” sections. Place lid on bowl, making sure to align the pour
spout on the lid with the pour spout on the bowl.
• Is the outlet still working? Check it by plugging in a working lamp or other appliance. You may have
overloaded the circuit and blown a fuse or tripped the circuit breaker.
• Turn unit OFF (O), allow to stand for 3 to 4 minutes, and then turn back on.
• If none of these suggestions correct the problem, DO NOT attempt to repair the unit. Call the Customer
Service number.
during initial use. This will go away. If a strong odor or any visible smoke appears, unplug unit
IMMEDIATELY and call the Customer Service number.
Charts for recommended food sizes and speeds.
mozzarella should be placed in the freezer for 30 minutes prior to processing to ensure it is firm enough
for shredding.
• Store vegetables with high water content in the refrigerator prior to processing. Room-temperature
vegetables are less firm and do not perform as well.
• Place back of the food chute under running water to rinse out the food before placing in the dishwasher.
