USING THE FEED CHUTE AND PUSHERS
Note: Before operating the food processor, be sure the processor bowl, blades and processor
bowl lid are properly assembled on the food processor motor unit.
CAUTION: Never use your fingers to direct food through the chute.
• Insert the large food pusher into the wide mouth feed chute. Insert the medium pusher
inside the large pusher and the small food pusher inside the medium pusher. The food
pushers are used to guide ingredients through the feed chute. The small and medium food
pushers can be removed to add liquid or additional foods (D).
Note: The large pusher must remain in the feed chute in order for the processor to operate. The
unit will continue to operate if the medium or small pushers are removed from the large pusher.
• Place food to be processed in the opening of the large pusher. Use the medium pusher to
guide food through the large pusher and feed chute.
• Use the small food pusher to guide food through the medium pusher.
• Use the small food pusher as a measuring cup.
USING THE SPEED CONTROLS
Note: If the food processor does not run, make sure the processor bowl and lid are properly
locked on the motor unit and the large food pusher is fully in place. There is an automatic safety
lock that causes the food processor to stop working if the large food pusher pops out and/or the
lid and workbowl are not properly locked in place.

IMPORTANT: You must remove dicing blade from the dicing disc before using the dicing
disc cleanout tool. Do not use the cleanout tool if the dicing disc is not in the processor
bowl.
• Prior to removing the dicing disc from the processor bowl, place the dicing disc cleanout
tool in the holes on the dicing disc, aligning the outer posts with the outer notches (J). The
curved edge of the cleanout tool aligns with the curved edge of the disc. Push cleanout tool
down into the dicing grid. This will push remaining food out of the grid, enabling you to wash
the dicing disc more efciently.
NOTE: Hard foods like carrots may require more force to remove with the dicing cleanout tool. It
is normal for some foods to remain in the grid until grid is washed.

HELPFUL TIPS WHEN USING THE DICING DISC
• Operate the dicing disc on LOW (speed 1).
• It is recommended to stop dicing when workbowl is 60% full.
• Blade must be removed from the top of the disc before using the dicing disc cleanout tool.
• Cut off the ends of food to be diced for most uniform dice.
• For small and soft foods, such as strawberries, use the smallest feed chute for best results.
• When dicing multiple ingredients, dice softer foods rst and end with hardest food.
• When dicing soft cheese, chill or freeze cheese prior to dicing.
• Not recommended for dicing corned beef, raw meat, or chicken.
• When dicing tomatoes, it is recommended to seed and peel them rst.
• Firm, seedless cucumbers work best.
USING THE SLICING DISC (GREEN)
IMPORTANT: The slicing disc can only be used with the large processor bowl. Only run the
processor on MEDIUM (speed 2) or LOW (speed 1) when using the slicing disc. DO NOT use
the slicing disc with mini processor bowl.
CAUTION: The disc attachments are very sharp. Use caution when handling and storing.
• Lock the large processor bowl into position on the motor unit.
Note: Position slicing disc blade just to the right of the feed chute. This allows the blade a full
rotation before contacting the food.
• Carefully place the slicing disc onto the centre post in the processor bowl. You may need to
rotate the disc slightly until it ts onto the post.
Note: Ensure that the adjustable slicing lever is set to thin/minimum before assembling the lid.
CAUTION: Never use your fingers to direct food through chute.
• Place lid on processor bowl and lock into place by rotating counterclockwise. Place the
food pushers into the feed chute. Put ingredients in the feed chute and guide food down
towards blade with the food pusher.
• To adjust the slicing thickness, move the lever at the motor unit of feed chute forward and
backwards to desired thickness setting (1-5mm). Turn the lever counterclockwise towards
the front of the food processor for thicker slices and clockwise towards the back of the food
processor for thinner slices. You are able to adjust thickness while the processor is running
(L).
