3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

4. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not immerse base, motor, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.

5. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

6. Avoid contacting moving parts.

Do not operate any appliance with a damaged supply cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.

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.

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, 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.

•

When using the bowl scraper, do not fill above the scraper.

• 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 coffee beans or spices, slicing frozen meats, 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.

Troubleshooting

Unit does not operate on any speed or Pulse.

• The unit is not plugged in or outlet does not work.

• The bowl and lid are not locked in place. See “How to Use”

sections.

• The locking arm is not locked in place over bowl and lid.

Food is not sliced or shredded uniformly.

• Packing too much food in the food chute or pushing too hard on

the food pusher may cause processed food to be irregularly sliced or shredded. Refer to Processing Charts for recommended sizes and quantities.

Unit stops and will not come back on.

• The bowl and lid are not locked in place. They may have moved

slightly during processing. See “How to Use” sections.

• The outlet is not 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.

• This machine is equipped with motor overload protection. If the

motor stops during operation due to overheating, unplug and allow it to cool down for 15 minutes before resuming process.

Unit has a burning smell.

• There may be a residue left on 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.

Motor seems weak.

• The recommended food size and quantity to be processed have not

been used. Refer to Processing Charts for recommended food sizes and speeds.

Cheese is not shredding well.

• 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.

Vegetables are not shredding or slicing.

• Store vegetables with high water content in refrigerator prior to

processing. Room-temperature vegetables are less firm and do not perform as well.
