experience and knowledge, unless they are closely supervised
and instructed concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
3. This appliance shall not be used by children. Keep the appliance
and its cord out of reach of children.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near

motor, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
6. Turn the appliance OFF( ), then unplug from outlet when not in
use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
To unplug, grasp the plug and pull from the outlet. Never pull
from the power cord.
7. Avoid contacting moving parts.
8. 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. Supply cord replacement and
repairs must be conducted by the manufacturer, its service
agent, or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Call the provided customer service number for information on
examination, repair, or adjustment.
9. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the
appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
10. Do not use your food processor if any part is broken.
11. Do not use appliance outdoors.
12. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
13. 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.
14. The blade and disc are sharp. Handle carefully. Store out of
reach of children.
15. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade or disc on

(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.
Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug
28. CAUTION! In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent
resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be
supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer,
or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by
the utility.
29. Be careful if hot liquid is poured into the food processor bowl as
it can be ejected out of the appliance due to a sudden steaming.
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 this appliance.

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.
• 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,
Monterey Jack, or Swiss that
has been chilled for at least 30
minutes.
•
The reversible slicing/shredding
disc and reversible fine-shred/
crinkle-cut disc have a slicing
blade on one side and shredding
teeth on the other and can only
be used with the large bowl. The
name engraved on the blade,
facing up, is the function
selected. For slicing, the word
“SLICE” should face up; for
shredding, the word “SHRED”
should face up. Place on motor
shaft with desired cutting edge
facing up.
• To julienne vegetables, slice,
remove from bowl, and 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.

Wipe base, control panel, and
cord with a damp cloth or
sponge. If necessary, use a mild
nonabrasive cleanser.
DISHWASHER-SAFE (TOP RACK ONLY)
DO NOT use the “SANI” setting when washing in the dishwasher.
“SANI” cycle temperatures could damage your product. Removable
parts may also be washed by hand in hot, soapy water. Use care
when hand-washing sharp edges.
Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
Unit does not operate
on any speed or Pulse.
Food is not chopped,
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 lid
from bowl(s) or bowl(s) from
base.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Is the unit plugged in? Does the outlet work?
•
Are the bowl(s) and lid locked in place and large food pusher in food chute? 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.
• Recommended speed for slicing and shredding disc should be LO for cheeses and LO or HI for
vegetables or fruit.
• Refer to the food processing charts for recommended sizes, speeds, and quantities.
• Are the bowl(s) and lid locked in place and large food pusher in food chute? They may have moved
slighty 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 ( ), 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.
• After washing in the dishwasher, allow parts to return to room temperature prior to placing on base.
A small amount of vegetable oil may be placed on snaps for easy removal.
