When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following.

Read all instructions.
To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put base, cord or plug in water or other liquid.
- Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
Avoid contacting moving parts.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free number listed on the cover of this manual.
The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
- Keep hands and utensils away from moving blades or discs while processing food to prevent the possibility of severe personal injury or damage to the food processor. A scraper may be used, but it must be used only when the food processor is not running.
Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade or discs on base without first putting bowl properly in place.
Be certain cover is securely locked in place before operating appliance.
Never feed food into chute by hand. Always use food pusher.
Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.
Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
- Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. A scraper may be used, but must be used only when the blender is not running.
Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutter-assembly blades on base without jar properly attached.

Always operate blender with cover in place.
- When blending hot liquids, remove center piece of two-piece cover.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

The cord of this appliance was selected to reduce the possibility of tangling in or tripping over a longer cord. If more length is needed, use an extension cord rated no less than 15 amperes. (For 220 volts rated products, use an extension cord rated no less than 6 amperes.) When using an extension cord, do not let it drape over the working area or dangle where someone could accidentally trip over it. Handle cord carefully for longer life; avoid jerking or straining it at outlet and appliance connections. The maximum rating is based on the chopping blade; other attachments may draw significantly less power.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service center.

This product is for household use only.

ASSEMBLING THE FOOD PROCESSOR

How to Insert and Remove the Center Post:

The center posts of both bowls are removable:

1. Turn the bowl upside down.

1. Grasp the clear outer tabs and turn the center post clockwise until the lower tabs are free. Lift the post out (B).
2. To return to its original position, place center post into smaller opening in bottom of workbowl and turn counterclockwise until tabs snap into place.

How to Lock the Workbowl in Position:

1. Attach center post to workbowl. Place the workbowl on the base with handle turned to the right of the locking mechanism (C) over the unlock symbol
2. Hold handle and rotate workbowl clockwise toward the lock symbol until it clicks firmly into place (D). Be sure to lock the workbowl in place before attaching the blades and cover.

How to Lock the Cover:

1. Place cover over workbowl with the small latch to the right of the workbowl's handle (E).
2. Hold feed chute of workbowl cover and rotate cover clockwise until cover locks into place.

Important: For your protection this appliance has an interlock system. The processor will not operate unless the workbowl, cover and wide-mouth feed chute are properly locked in place.
3. Place the wide-mouth feed chute on top of the cover with the small tab to the right of the workbowl's handle. Turn clockwise until it clicks into position over the handle.

1. Insert the food pusher into the central tube of the wide-mouth feed chute. Turn clockwise to lock in place. The pusher is used to guide foods through the feed chute and can be removed when adding liquid or additional foods while the processor is running. To remove, turn counterclockwise.

CONTROLS

The controls are located on the front of the base (F). Press PULSE, HIGH or LOW to select a function (see directions below).

OFF/PULSE:

• Processor should be stored in OFF position and unplugged when not in use.

• Use PULSE for short processing tasks. This lets you control the size and uniformity of foods being chopped.

• The OFF/PULSE button must be pressed and held for the appliance to operate in PULSE mode. When released, the appliance will stop.

• The motor of the processor will run as long as the OFF/PULSE button is held down. Press the button and then release to allow the blades to stop running and the food to fall to the bottom of the workbowl.
• Pulsing gives better control when chopping, mincing, mixing and blending foods. You can control the size of the foods, from coarse to fine.

HIGH and LOW:

When either speed is selected, the processor will run continuously until the OFF/PULSE button is pressed.

HOW TO CHOP IN THE WORKBOWL:

The chopping blade is used to coarsely or finely chop, mince, mix and puree foods to a smooth consistency.

1. Lock workbowl into position (see Illustrations B and C).

1. Hold chopping blade by center shaft and insert onto center post (G).
   Caution: The blade attachments are very sharp. Use caution when handling and storing.
2. Place food in workbowl.

3. Place cover on workbowl and lock into place by rotating clockwise (see Illustration D).

4. Place the wide-mouth feed chute and food pusher in place.

Important: Never use your fingers to direct food through the chute.

1. Select your desired speed (PULSE, LOW or HIGH).

Note: Process foods for no more than a few seconds at a time. Pulsing produces excellent results and offers greater control.

1. Food can be added while processor is running; remove food pusher and insert food through the feed chute. Replace food pusher in chute.

Important: Be sure chopping blade has completely stopped spinning before removing cover from processor.

1. Press the OFF/PULSE button and allow blades to stop revolving before removing cover. Twist cover toward remove.
2. Unlock workbowl by turning it counterclockwise and lift off base.

Note: Remove bowl from appliance before removing blade to prevent food from leaking through the center opening of the bowl.

1. Carefully remove chopping blade.
2. Unplug appliance when not in use.

Helpful Tips for Chopping and Blending:

The processor works very quickly.
- Watch carefully to avoid over-processing foods.
The PULSE button offers the best control and results.
- For best results, process foods that are about the same size.
- Do not overload the bowl.
- Never walk away from the processor while it is on.
Use hot but never boiling liquids.
- Do not process more than 3 cups liquid in the workbowl at one time.
To process meat, use no more than 2 cups of 34 -inch cubes in the workbowl. Process using PULSE in 5 second intervals.
The workbowl has a capacity of 10 cups.
- Insert a funnel into the feed chute when adding ingredients such as, oil, flour and sugar.

USING THE DOUGH BLADE

This blade makes preparing dough efficient and time-saving.

1. This blade does not extend to the outside rim of the workbowl, so it cannot incorporate flour when very small amounts of flour are being processed.
2. Push dough blade down as far as it will go into workbowl.
3. Insert all the dry ingredients into the workbowl.
4. Place cover on workbowl. Add wide-mouth feed chute and food pusher. Process to blend.
5. Add liquids through the small feed chute with machine running.

HELPFUL TIPS WHEN USING THE DOUGH BLADE

For best results do not prepare recipes using more than 31 / 2 cups flour.
- Begin with 1 cup less than the maximum amount of flour and add additional flour once mixture is well blended.
- Pour liquid through food chute gradually.
- Knead dough no longer than 1 minute.
- Do not leave processor unattended during operation.

HOW TO SLICE OR SHRED

1. Lock workbowl into position (see Illustrations B and C).
2. Place disc stem onto center post in workbowl.
3. Carefully place slice/shred disc on stem with appropriate side up (depending on work to be done).

Caution: The blade attachments are very sharp. Use caution when handling and storing.

1. Place cover on workbowl and lock into place by rotating cover clockwise (see Illustration D).
2. Fill feed chute with food. Select regular opening or wide-mouth, depending upon size of food to be processed. Position food pusher over food (H).

1. Select PULSE, LOW or HIGH; press firmly on food pusher to guide food through processor, but do not force it.

Note: Heavy pressure on the pusher does not speed the work; use the pusher only as a guide. Let the processor do the work.

1. When finished, press OFF/PULSE and wait for disc to stop rotating before removing cover. Twist cover toward remove.
2. Carefully remove slice/shred disc. Unlock workbowl by turning it counterclockwise and lifting it off the base.
3. Unplug appliance when not in use.

Helpful Tips When Slicing and Shredding

• Before slicing round fruits and vegetables in the processor, cut a thin slice from the bottom so food will be more stable. Place food cut side down in feed chute.
  Always remove seeds and pits before processing.

• Select foods that are firm and not overripe.

• Remove the core from hard vegetables, such as cabbage.

• When slicing thinner vegetables, cut them just short of the length of the feed chute and stand them vertically in feed chute so they are solidly packed and cannot turn or tilt.
• Shred hard cheeses at room temperature.
• Soft and semi-hard cheeses should be well chilled before shredding.
• After food has been processed, remove the cover and invert on countertop. Remove the slice/shredd disc before removing the workbowl from the processor. Place the disc on top of the inverted workbowl cover.

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR USING THE FOOD PROCESSOR

1. Organize processing tasks to avoid multiple cleanups of the bowl; process dry before wet.
2. Although plastic parts of the processor are dishwasher safe, wash them by hand to retain their clear appearance.
3. To easily clean the workbowl, once empty add a drop of detergent and a little hot water and pulse several times. Rinse before reusing.
4. The processor will be more efficient if filled no more than 12 to 32 full.
5. To take advantage of the speed of the processor, drop foods through the food chute with the processor running.
6. Apply light pressure on the pusher for soft foods (berries and tomatoes) and slightly more pressure for hard foods (onions and potatoes).
7. Do not process foods that are so frozen or so hard that the tip of a knife cannot be inserted into the food.
8. When chopping dried fruits add a little flour to keep the pieces from sticking together.
9. Chill soft cheeses before slicing and shredding to prevent the cheese from rolling into a ball on the disc.
10. When using the slicing / shredding disc do not let the food accumulate too high; stop and empty the workbowl.
11. Do not use the processor to:

Grind bones, grains or hard spices
Liquefy fruits and vegetables
- Slice warm meat and hard cooked eggs; chill them first.

HOW TO USE THE BLENDER

BLENDER JAR ASSEMBLY

1. Turn blender jar upside down and place flat on counter top or work surface.
2. Put the gasket on top of the blade assembly. Place the blade assembly with gasket in bottom opening of the jar with blades down.

1. Place jar base onto jar and rotate clockwise until it is tight (J).
2. Turn assembled jar right side up.
3. Place lid with lid cap in place on blender jar.
4. Place jar on power base with tab on base slightly to the right of the locking mechanism and rotate clockwise until blender locks into place (Ks)
5. Blender is now ready for use.

HOW TO USE

1. Make sure appliance is OFF.
2. Place foods to be blended into jar.
3. Place lid on jar; make sure lid cap is in place.
4. Plug power cord into standard electrical outlet.

Note: When in use do not leave blender unattended. When using hard foods, such as ice, nuts and coffee beans, keep one hand on the lid to keep blender in place.

1. Select the speed that best suits your desired task.

Note: For blending tasks such as grinding coffee beans or nuts, or when blending thick mixtures, use the PULSE button for several seconds; then release. Releasing the PULSE button automatically turns the blender off.

1. Open the Lid Cap to add ingredients while the blender is running, and drop ingredients through the opening (L).

Note: Do not remove the lid while the blender is running.

1. When finished, press the OFF/PULSE button.

2. To remove the jar, using thumb and forefinger, push tab on blender base to the right to release the locking mechanism (M).

3. Grasp the handle of the blender jar and lift up.
4. Remove the lid to pour.
5. Always unplug the appliance when not in use.

BLENDING TIPS AND TECHNIQUES

1. Cut food into pieces no larger than 34 -inch for use in the blender.
2. When ingredients splatter onto the sides of the jar or the mixture is very thick, press the OFF/PULSE button to turn appliance off. Remove the lid and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the jar and to redistribute the food pushing food toward the blades. Replace the lid and continue blending.
3. Blender should always have lid with lid cap in place when in use.
4. Do not place blender jar on base when motor is running.

1. The lid cap holds 14 cup liquid and can be used when adding ingredients such as juices, milk, cream and liquor (N).
2. When making bread crumbs, chopping nuts or grinding coffee beans make sure blender jar is completely dry.

3. When using a PULSE function use short bursts. Allow the blades to stop rotating between pulses.

4. Use the PULSE button when preparing beverages that include ice cubes; this helps to produce a smoother texture.

5. It is helpful to begin the blending process on the lowest speed and then increase to a higher speed, if necessary.

1. When blending hot ingredients always open the lid cap and replace it ajar with the opened side away from you. Cover lid with a cloth to avoid splattering and only use low speed. Do not blend more than 3 to 312 cups at a time (P).

11. DO NOT place any of the following in the blender:

Large pieces of frozen foods
- Tough foods such as raw turnips, sweet potatoes and potatoes

Bones
- Hard salami, pepperoni
- Boiling liquids (cool for 5 minutes before placing in blender jar.)

Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

Note: Do not attempt to sharpen the cutting edges of the blades or disc. They are permanently sharpened at the factory and will be ruined by attempted sharpening.

CARE AND CLEANING

Note: Before cleaning, be sure unit is turned off and cord is unplugged.

• Completely disassemble processor parts before washing.
• Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy cleanup.
• Wipe base and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Stubborn spots can be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild, nonabrasive cleaner. Do not immerse base in liquid.
• All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher. Hand washing of plastic parts will help to maintain the processor's appearance.
• If washing by hand, fill workbowl with hot soapy water and rapidly raise and lower the cutting blade and discs up and down on the center shaft.
  If your sink has a sprayer nozzle, you will find it helpful in rinsing the blades.
• If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on top rack only – not in or near utensil basket.
• Some staining of parts may occur. Make a paste of 2 tablespoons baking soda / 1 tablespoon water. Apply to stains and let stand overnight. Rinse and dry.
• Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.
• Do not allow blades or discs to soak in water for long periods of time.
• Remove the workbowl cover and blade. Invert an empty 35-mm film canister over the hole in the workbowl. Fill with hot, soapy water and allow to soak.
• Remember to clean the internal shaft of the chopping blade; use a baby bottle brush to remove any clogged food particles.
• If you are having trouble closing the cover over the workbowl, apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the rim of the cover and workbowl. This should make the pieces work smoother when attaching the cover to the bowl.

TROUBLESHOOTING FOR FOOD PROCESSOR

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Food is unevenly chopped.	Workbowl is overfilled.You may be running the bowl continuously instead of on PULSE. Food may be cut in random sizes.	Smaller amounts will process more evenly.Use the PULSE button in 5-second or less increments. Allow the blades to stop completely before pressing the PULSE button again. Cut food in same size pieces before placing in processor.
Liquid leaks from the bottom of the workbowl.	Too much liquid in the workbowl.	Process smaller amounts.When processing liquids, do not add more than 3 cups to workbowl. Do not remove the blade before removing workbowl from processor when processing liquids.
Sliced foods are uneven and slanted.	The feed chute has not been well packed or uneven pressure has been applied to the food pusher during processing.	Cut pieces in even lengths, just a little shorter than the length of the feed chute. Pack the chute carefully and maintain even pressure on the food pusher as the food is being processed.
Foods being sliced or shredded fill up on one side of the bowl.	This is normal. Stop processing occasion-ally and either even out the food in the workbowl or move it to another bowl. When food accumulates close to the disc, empty the workbowl before continuing.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Some pieces of food remain on top of the slice/shreddisc.	This is normal. Slice or shredded those pieces by hand or save for another use, like soups that will be pureed.
Soft cheese collects on top of the slice/shreddisc.	The cheese was not cold enough. The pressure exerted on the pusher was too great.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Herbs or bread are stick- ing to sides of blender and not getting chopped.	Blender jar, food to be chopped and blade are not dry.
Jar separates from bottom when being removed from blender. Liquid spills onto counter.	Jar was twisted when be- ing removed from base of blender.

TROUBLESHOOTING FOR BLENDER

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Jar bottom does not come off of jar	A vacuum has been formed.	Place the jar on the blender and turn counterclockwise until jar is released from the bottom
Liquid is leaking from bottom of jar.	Gasket is either missing or not in place correctly.	Check that jar is assembled correctly.
Appliance does not turn on	Appliance is not plugged in jar is not in place.	Check that appliance is plugged into a working outlet. Blender jar and lid must be securely in place.
Mixture in blender does not seem to be blending.	Not enough liquid in mixture being blended or too much ice.	Turn the blender off and use a rubber spatula to redistribute the food; add some liquid and pulse the mixture to aid in the blending process.
