Features of your Zumbo Limited Edition
Food Processor
Processing cover
The processing cover or lid of bowl provides a
safety feature to the appliance. The appliance
will not operate unless the bowl, cover and large
feed pusher are correctly positioned and locked
into place.
1400 watt induction motor
The die-cast base houses a powerful 1400
watt motor. This motor is ideal for high load
applications during processing, and provides a
greater starting strength whilst maintaining speed
throughout. The Zumbo Limited Edition Food
Processor motor is reliable, quiet, will provide a
long life and is backed by a 10 year guarantee.
START/STOP button
For easy use the START/STOP button starts
and stops the operation of the food processor.
Auto Pulse

Food Pushers
The food pushers assist in guiding the food
through the chute to ensure ingredients hit
the blade vertically for best processing results.
Three food pushers are included, depending on
the size of the chute being used and the size
of foods. For thinner foods, use the smaller
internal pusher for consistent even slicing.
This pusher also doubles as a measuring cup.
Wide Chute
At 14cm’s wide, the extra wide chute
eliminates the need to cut most ingredients,
to fit into the chute. Guide ingredients through
the chute into the selected blades. Additional
ingredients can be added during other
processing tasks.
Chute Safety Feature
The wide chute pusher provides a safety
interlock feature to the appliance. The motor
will not operate unless the bowl and lid are
correctly locked in position, and the large feed
pusher is inserted.
Spindle
Drives all the food processing attachments.
The spindle must be in place to operate the
food processor.
Processing bowl with handle
Large 2 litre capacity processing bowl.
The handle of the processing bowl includes a
patent-pending robust stainless steel interlock
that prevents food catching and building up,
ensuring easy cleaning.
Second processing bowl
The smaller processing bowl is ideal for small
amounts of ingredients. At 400ml in volume,
this bowl is perfect for chopping nuts, creating
pesto or chopping herbs.
Cord storage facility
For added convenience the unused cord length
can easily be pushed into the base of the
processor for storage.

Handy hints for Processing
Chopping
For the best, most consistent results, you
should try to process pieces of food that are
approximately equal in size. When you break,
cut or tear food into uniform pieces before
you begin processing, the finished results will
be more uniform.
More consistent processing results are
achieved if the container is not overloaded.
Mincing
Pre-cut meat into cubes approximately 2cm
square.
Vegetables
When processing vegetables such as onions,
peel and quarter or cut large vegetables into
eighths.
Mixing
The quantities that can be processed within
the Processing bowl will vary with the density
of the mixture.
For best results with cheese
Softer cheeses such as Cheddar or Swiss
should be well chilled before processing.
For best results with harder cheeses such as
Parmesan or Romano, use the shaving disc,
with the cheese at room temperature.
Note: When grating parmesan cheese do not
apply a lot of pressure to the food pusher.
Soups
When preparing soups, always allow
ingredients to cool to room temperature,
before processing.
Adding Ingredients
When various recipes require dry ingredients
such as flour, add them directly into the
processing bowl before processing. There
is no need to sift ingredients when using
your food processor. Liquid ingredients may
be added while the processor is operating
by pouring through the feed tube in the
processor cover.
Note: When processing sauces or semi-liquid
ingredients, stop the food processor and
scrape down the container sides with the
spatula provided.
Using the Feed Tube
The most important factor for successful
slicing and shredding is the way in which the
food is packed into the feed tube.
When slicing, shredding, shaving or grating
Cut all ingredients to a size that fits
comfortably into the feed tube. Pack the
feed tube and, while holding food steady
and upright with the food pusher, press
down evenly until all ingredients are sliced
or shredded. The more firmly you push,
the thicker the slices or shreds. Do not use
excessive force or you may damage the food
processor.
Note: Never use fingers to push food down
the feed tube. Always use the food pusher.
For best results when slicing
The feed tube should always be packed firmly
to allow each piece of food to support the
others. There will always be a small portion
of food left unprocessed between the food
pusher and the blade.
12
Care and cleaning
When you have finished processing, unplug
the Cafè Series® Food Processor from the
power outlet.
All accessories and processor tools can be
washed in hot soapy water except for the
processor body. Clean the processor body
by wiping with a damp cloth.
Warning: Care must be taken when handling
the metal blades as these items are extremely
sharp.
Note: Always unplug the Cafè Series® Food
Processor before cleaning.
Dishwasher Use
All plastic components deteriorate through
the prolonged use of a dishwasher for
cleaning.
We do not recommend to place any parts of
the food processor in the dishwasher.
If using the dishwasher, place parts only
on the top rack of your dishwasher. Do not
place any parts in the bottom racks. This
may cause plastic parts to distort due to the
heating element in the dishwasher.
