Safety features

Thermal safety cut-out

This appliance is equipped with a thermal safety cut-out that automatically cuts off the power supply to the appliance in case of overheating. If the appliance stops running:

1 Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
2 Let the appliance cool down for 1 hour.
3 Put the mains plug back into the wall socket.

Please contact your Philips dealer or an authorised Philips service centre if the thermal safety cut-out is activated too often.

Built-in safety lock

This feature ensures that you can only switch on the appliance if you have assembled the bowl correctly on the motor unit and the lid correctly on the bowl. If the bowl and the lid are assembled correctly (see chapter 'Using the appliance'), the built-in safety lock will be unlocked.

Before first use

For hygiene reasons, clean the bowl and all detachable parts properly by hand with lukewarm water and some washing-up liquid.

Using the appliance

General

- The appliance is equipped with a built-in safety lock that prevents it from functioning if the bowl and lid are not assembled properly.

Food processor

1 Put the bowl on the motor unit (1) and turn it clockwise to fix it (2) (Fig. 2).
2 Place the tool holder on the drive unit on the bottom of the bowl, if you want to use one of the discs or the balloon beater.
If you want to use the blade unit or the kneading tool, you can place them directly on the drive unit in the middle of the bowl without placing the tool holder.
3 When you use the blade unit, the kneading accessory or the balloon beater, first put the tool in the bowl and then the ingredients to be processed.
4 Put the lid on the bowl (1). Turn the lid clockwise (2) to fix it ('click'). The projection of the lid completes the shape of the handgrip. (Fig. 3)

ENGLISH8

5 When you use one of the discs, add the ingredients through the feeding tube and push them down with the pusher.
6 Press the speed button that corresponds to the accessory in the bowl. Press speed 1 for the balloon beater, discs and kneading accessory and press the blade unit button for the blade unit.
7 When you have finished processing, press button 0.

Feeding tube and pusher

• Use the feeding tube to add liquid and/or solid ingredients (Fig. 4).
• Use the pusher to push solid ingredients down the feeding tube. (Fig. 5)

You can also use the pusher to close the feeding tube. This prevents ingredients from escaping through the feeding tube.

Blade unit

You can use the blade unit to chop, mix, blend or puree ingredients.

1 Put the blade unit on the drive unit on the bottom of the bowl (Fig. 6).

The cutting edges are very sharp. Do not touch them.

2 Put the ingredients in the bowl. Pre-cut large pieces of food into pieces of approx. 3 x 3 x 3cm (Fig. 7).
3 Put the lid on the bowl (1) and turn it clockwise to close it (2). Insert the pusher in the feeding tube to prevent spillage (Fig. 8).
4 Press the blade unit button (Fig. 9).

Tips

• When you chop onions, press the pulse button a few times to prevent the onions from becoming too finely chopped.
• Do not let the appliance run too long when you chop (hard) cheese or chocolate. Otherwise these ingredients become too hot, start to melt and turn lumpy.
• Do not use the blade unit to chop very hard ingredients like coffee beans, turmeric, nutmeg and ice cubes, as this may cause the blade to get blunt.

- The standard processing time for all chopping jobs is 30-60 seconds. - If food sticks to the blade or to the wall of the bowl, switch off the appliance and unplug it. Then use a spatula to remove the food from the blade or from the wall of the bowl.

Discs

Never process hard ingredients like ice cubes with the discs.

The cutting edges of the discs are very sharp. Do not touch them.

1 Put the tool holder on the drive unit on the bottom of the bowl (Fig. 10).
2 Place the desired disc on top of the tool holder (Fig. 11).

Note: Place the Julienne/French fries disc on top of the tool holder in such a way that the longer plastic part in the centre of the disc points upwards.

3 Put the lid on the bowl (1) and turn it clockwise to close it (2) (Fig. 12).
4 Put the ingredients in the feeding tube. (Fig. 13)

• Pre-cut large ingredients into chunks that fit in the feeding tube.
• Fill the feeding tube evenly for the best results.
• When you have to process a large amount of ingredients, process small batches and empty the bowl between batches.

5 Press speed button 1.
6 Press the pusher lightly onto the ingredients in the feeding tube.
7 When you have finished processing, press button 0.

Tip

- Do not use the discs to process chocolate. Only use the blade unit for this purpose.

Kneading accessory

You can use the kneading accessory to knead yeast dough for bread and pizzas.

ENGLISH 9

1 Put the kneading accessory on the drive unit on the bottom of the bowl (Fig. 14).
2 Put the ingredients in the bowl (Fig. 15).
3 Put the lid onto the bowl (1) and turn it clockwise to close it (2). Insert the pusher in the feeding tube to prevent spillage (Fig. 16).
4 Press speed button 1.

Never leave the appliance unattended when it is kneading.

5 When you have finished processing, press button 0.

Double balloon beater

You can use the double balloon beater to whip cream and to whisk eggs, egg whites, instant pudding, mayonnaise, sponge cake mixture and other soft ingredients.

Tips

• Do not use the balloon beater to prepare cake mixtures with butter or margarine or to knead dough. Use the kneading accessory for these jobs.
• Make sure the bowl and the balloon beater are dry and free from grease when you whisk egg whites. To get the best results the egg whites should be at room temperature.
  1 Put the tool holder on the drive unit on the bottom of the bowl (Fig. 10).
  2 Put the balloon beater on top of the tool holder (Fig. 17).
  3 Put the ingredients in the bowl (Fig. 18).
  4 Put the lid on the bowl (1) and turn it clockwise to close it (2). Insert the pusher in the feeding tube to prevent spillage (Fig. 19).
  5 Press speed button 1.
  6 When you have finished processing, press button 0.
  7 Always clean the balloon beater after use.

See chapter 'Cleaning' for instructions on how to clean the balloon beater.

Cleaning

1 Make sure the appliance is switched off and unplugged.
2 Clean the motor unit with a moist cloth.

Never immerse the motor unit in water nor rinse it under the tap.
3 Clean the parts that have come into contact with food in hot water with some washing-up liquid immediately after use.

Clean the blade unit and the discs very carefully. The cutting edges are very sharp.

Note: All parts, except the motor unit can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.

- Make sure that the cutting edges of the blade and the discs do not come into contact with hard objects. This could cause them to become blunt.

Balloon beater

Always clean the balloon beater immediately after use.

You can disassemble the balloon beater for thorough cleaning.

1 Pull the beaters out of the bracket (Fig. 20).
2 Clean all parts in hot water with some washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher.
3 Reinsert the beaters in the bracket after cleaning them.

Storage

1 Store the mains cord in the cord storage groove by winding it round the base of the motor unit (Fig. 21).

Environment

- Do not throw away the appliance with the normal household waste at the end of its life, but hand it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve the environment (Fig. 22).

Troubleshooting

This chapter summarises the most common problems you could encounter with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country.

Problem Solution

When I push a process button or the pulse button, the appliance does not start to operate.	Make sure the bowl and lid are fixed properly ('click'). The appliance starts to operate when you press a speed button.
The appliance suddenly stops running.	The thermal safety cut-out has probably cut off the power supply to the appliance because the appliance has overheated. 1) Press the stop button 0. Unplug the appliance. 2) Let the appliance cool down for 1 hour. 3) Put the mains plug in the socket. 4) Switch on the appliance again.
The kneading accessory or the blade unit does not turn	Make sure the kneading accessory or the blade unit is assembled properly onto the drive unit. Also make sure the food processor bowl and the lid are assembled properly ('click').
The appliance makes a lot of noise when I use the Julienne/French fries disc and the disc scratches the lid of the bowl.	You have assembled the Julienne/French fries disc upside down. Switch off the appliance immediately and assemble the Julienne/French fries disc in such a way that the longer plastic part in the centre of the disc points upwards.
After using the appliance, I cannot remove the tool holder, blade unit or kneading accessory from the bowl.	Empty the bowl. Fill it with 500ml of water. Wait one minute and then remove the tool holder, blade unit or kneading accessory.

Question Answer

How can I prepare whipped cream without turning it into butter?	Use cream directly from the fridge (5-8°C) and do not exceed the time mentioned in the quantities and processing times table in this user manual.
Why does the appliance become unstable when I knead dough?	When the dough has turned into a ball, the appliance becomes unbalanced because of the ball that turns around in the bowl. This does not damage the appliance, but do take care that the appliance does not fall off the table or worktop. Always use speed 1 for kneading.
Can I prepare shortbread dough with this appliance?	Yes, you can if you do not use butter and eggs directly from the fridge.
Why do the balloon beaters not turn?	Perhaps ingredients from a previous job stuck in the attachment points of the balloon beaters to the bracket. Remove the beaters and clean the attachment points.
How do I have to assemble the Julienne/French fries disc?	Assemble the Julienne/French fries disc in such a way that the longer plastic part in the centre of the disc points upwards.
Why does the appliance start running so slowly?	The appliance is equipped with a soft start mechanism. This reduces splashing of the ingredients.
