Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR SUNBEAM FOOD PROCESSOR.
•Always use extreme care when handling processing blades and cutting discs. These are extremely sharp and may cause injury if handled incorrectly. Always store processing blades and cutting discs in their respective covers or processing containers.
•Unplug from power outlet before cleaning.
•Switch off the appliance and disconnect from supply before changing accessories or approaching parts that move in use.
•Always fit the safety cover before using the food processor.
•Do not put hot liquids into the food processor
bowl or blender. Cool to room temperature before blending or processing.
•Avoid contacting moving parts at all times.
•Place the processor bowl onto the base of the processor before fitting any attachments.
•All blades and attachments should be removed with care before cleaning.
•Do not over fill the processor.
•Always remove the blade before emptying the processor bowl of its contents.
•When mixing a heavy load, ie. a ‘1.5kg dough’ do not operate food processor for more than 45 seconds at a time. This does not apply for any of the recipes detailed in this booklet.

Positioning the processing bowl and cover
The following steps are for both models LC6250 and LC6950.
1.Place the motor base facing you on a dry, level surface.
2.Position the processing bowl over the drive shaft. The handle of the bowl needs to be facing you (marked “Locate handle”) and the bowl should now be resting on the base of the food processor, see Figure 2.

Important: If the processing bowl and cover are not correctly assembled, the MultiProcessor will not function.
Using your MultiProcessor
1.Plug the power cord into a 230-240V AC power outlet and turn the power ‘ON’.
2.Using the control dial, select the desired processing speed.
The Pulse function remains on as long as the Pulse button is pressed down.
The variable speed settings will provide continuous processing until the control dial is returned to the ‘0’ position.
Further ingredients can also be added whilst processing by pouring through the feed tube once the food pusher has been removed.
3.After you have completed processing, turn the control dial to the ‘0’ position.
Note: For maximum control when using your food processor, load the feed tube before turning on your food processor. Always use the food pusher for more evenly processed foods and never use your fingers.
Important: When mixing a heavy load, ie. ‘1.5kg Dough’ do not operate food processor for more than 1 minute at a time.
