IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read and save all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not immerse base,
motor, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
4. This appliance should not be used by children.
5. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning.
6. Avoid contacting moving parts.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug
or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged
in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number
for information on examination, repair, or electrical or
mechanical adjustment.
8. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the
appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
9. Do not use your food processor if any part is broken.
10. Do not use appliance outdoors.
11. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
12. Keep hands and utensils away from moving blade and disc while
processing food to reduce the risk of severe personal injury and/
or damage to the food processor. A rubber scraper may be used
but ONLY when the food processor is not running.
13. The blade and disc are sharp. Handle carefully. Store out of reach
of children.
14. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade or disc
on base without first putting bowl properly in place.
15. Be certain lid is securely locked in place before operating
appliance.
16. Never feed food into food chute by hand. Always use the food
pushers.
17. Do not attempt to defeat the lid interlock mechanism.
18. Make sure the blade or disc has come to a full stop before
removing lid.
19. To reduce the risk of injury, be sure to insert or remove blade
and disc using hubs provided for this purpose. Use caution when
removing blade and disc from the bowl, when emptying the
bowl, and when cleaning.
20. Check that the control is OFF (O) before plugging cord into wall
outlet. To disconnect, turn the control to OFF (O); then remove
plug from wall outlet.
21. Be sure to turn switch to OFF (O) position after each use. Always
use the pushers to clear the food chute. When this method is not
possible, unplug cord from outlet and disassemble unit to
remove the remaining food.
22. The appliance is not intended for commercial, professional, or
industrial use. It is designed and built exclusively for household
use only.
23. Never use appliance for a longer period or with a larger amount
of ingredients other than that recommended by appliance
manufacturer.
24. The maximum rating of this unit is based on using the chopping/
mixing blade. Using the slicing/shredding disc may draw
significantly less power.
25. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated
oven.
26. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Other Consumer Safety Information
This product is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug
(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug
fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using
an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another highwattage appliance on the same circuit with your food processor.

Tips and Techniques
Processing Charts
• Add the bowl scraper to bowl
before processing ingredients
that will stick to the sides of
the bowl.
•
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 must 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.
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.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
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.
Motor seems weak.
It is difficult to remove
bowl from base.
Cheese is not shredding
well.
Vegetables are not
shredding or slicing.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Is the unit plugged in? Does the outlet work?
• Are the bowl and lid locked in place? See “How to Use” sections.
• 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.
• Are the bowl and lid locked in place? They may have moved slightly during processing. See “How to
Use” sections.
• 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 to get the
name of your nearest Authorized Service Center.
• There may be a residue left on the motor from the manufacturing process, causing a slight odor
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.
• Are you using the recommended food size and quantity to be processed? Refer to the Food Processing
Charts for recommended food sizes and speeds.
• Rub a small amount of vegetable oil on the snaps, located on the base. Do not lock bowl and lid during
storage.
• Cheese should be processed immediately after being removed from the refrigerator. Soft cheese like
mozzarella must 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.
