They are dish washer-safe (top rack only) and microwave safe. Four party mugs with comfot lip rings These party mugs turn your food processor into the ultimate party machine. You can make and serve frozen party drinks right in the same mug. Power base The power base is the heart of the food processor. Simply place one of the bullet cups or party mugs onto the high- torque power base and press. Nothing could be easier. Caution: Do not submerge the power base in water and always unplug the power base before cleaning it. Cross blade and at blade See “Choosing the right blade” on page 23. Description of the parts Before using your food processor for the rst time, rinse all of the pieces. 19Food processor blender and lid The full-size blender attachment has all the power and capacity of an expensive, conventional blender, but takes up much less space. Use your food pro- cessor blender anytime you need to whip up family- size batches of milkshakes, pancakes batters, or to make big batches of your favourite frozen cocktails at your next party. The blender lid comes with a pop-top for slipping in ingredients while the motor is running, mess free. Food processor and juice extractor kit These two pieces, the extractor and plunger trans- form your food processor into the food processor juicer that does the same job as conventional juic- ers. However, the food processor juicer cleans up in seconds and is dishwasher-safe. Shaker, steamer tops Your food processor comes with two handy shaker/ steamer tops that are used for steaming foods in the microwave, or as shaker tops. Stay-fresh resealable lids You can prepare, cook and store your food in the very same vessel. No plastic wrap or storage con- tainers are needed to keep your leftovers fresh. Your food processor comes with two stay-fresh re- sealable lids that t right on the short and tall cups, and party mugs to keep your leftovers fresh for days. Only use the shaker/steamer tops to heat food in the microwave. 20Assembling the food processor Assembling the food processor juicer

2. Insert the extractor down the centre of

the blender making sure to line the three notches up with the three ribs on the inside of the blender.

3. Place the lid onto the blender and align ei-

ther the straining pourer or regular pourer up to the spout. Make sure the lid is locked on, it holds the extractor insert in place.

4. Place the blender on the food processor

base. 21Use Using the food processor is as easy as 1,2,3...

1. Load the ingredients into the short cup, tall cup,

2. Twist on the cross, or at blade until the blade

and cup have a tight seal.

3. Line up the tabs, place the bullet on the power

base and press down on the cup to turn it on. Here’s how it works: As long as you’re holding it down, the food pro- cessor is on. When you want the blades to stop, simply let go. Lock-on mode: For hands-free operation, press down and gently turn the cup clock-wise until the tabs lock under the lip of the power base. Once you are in lock- on mode, the motor runs continually. To turn it o, simply twist the cup back counter-clockwise and release the cup. 22Caution: Never run the food processor for more than one minute at a time, as it can cause permanent damage to the motor. If the motor stops working, unplug the power base and let it cool for a few hours before attempting to use it again. Your food processor has an internal thermal breaker that suts the unit o when it overheats. Letting the thermal breaker cool down should allow it to reset.. Choosing the right blade Cross blade Chopping Onions, garlic, carrots, salsa dips, bean dips, gazpacho. Blending Ice for smoothies, frozen coktails, milkshakes Mixing Batters for pancakes, muns, quick breads Grating Hard of soft cheeses, chocolate Pureeing Dishes such as hummus, all-natural soups, and baba food are creamy smooth in seconds, shave ice and frozen fruits for snow cones or fruit sorbets Flat blade Grinding Coee beans, nuts, cinnamon sticks, dried fruit Whipping Whiped cream, cream cheese schmears, butter Using the food processor juicer

1. Select your juice ingredients. Make sure they are sized to t into the extractor and place

them within arms reach of your food processor juicer.

2. Remove the pop-top from the lid of the blender, place the assembled foot processor

juicer onto the power base. Press down and and turn the blender clockwise until it is running in hands-free lock on mode, to avoid jamming the blades, which can cause serous motor damage, make sure the motor is running before you add any ingredients into the juicer. 23Food processing techniques The pulse technique Because the food processor’s motor is so powerful, if you are not careful you can quickly overprocess food and turn it into mush. That is why when you want to make foods such as chunky salsa, or coarse chopped onions, the pulse technique is the key. Pulsing takes a tiny bit of getting used to, you’ll be a pro in no time! To pulse you simply press down on the cup very quickly and im- mediately release. For foods that you want coarsely chopped, quick tap on the top tap again until you get the consistency you desire. The trick to successful pulsing is to make sure that the machine does not accidentally slip into lock-on mode. To avoid this, simply use your other hand to apply counter-clockwise pressure on the cup as you pulse. The shake technique Sometimes, when you are working with thicker ingredients, like those in chicken salad or mannara sauce, the density or the mix- ture can make it hard for the ingredients toward the top of the cup to make it down to the blade. If some of your ingredients are having a hard time making it down to the blade, simply use this shake technique. The cocktail shake When making smoothies, dips or other recipes where you are using the mixer in lock-on mode, pick up the whole cup and power base and shake it like a cocktail shaker. The "shakin'pulse" When you need to shake ingredients that you want coarsely chopped, like salsa or meat salads, you are going to want to use the shak’n’pulse technique.:

1. Make sure the hand holding the cup is applying counter-clock-

wise pressure to keep ti from locking on.

2. Give the cup a strong downward shake to throw the ingredients

into the blade, and pulse at the bottom of the shake.

3. Give the cup a strong downward shake to throw the ingredients

into the blade, and pulse at the bottom of the shake. The tap technique If you have a problem with sticky ingredients clinging to the side 24of the cup instead. If you have a problem with sticky ingredients clinging to the side of the cup instead of being recirculated into the cutting zone.

1. Take the cup o the power base and tag the cup and blade as-

sembly on the counter to force the ingredients down into the blades.

2. Replace the cup and blade assembly to the power base and

nish processing. Cooking in the food processor cups Unlike with conventional blenders or food processors, the food preparation does not have to end here. Once you have prepared your food, your food processor is then ready to cook it as well. Just remove the blade, twist on a shaker/steamer top and place the cup in the microwave. Seconds later.

1. Blend or pulse your ingredients together.

2. Remove the blade, twist on a shaker/steamer top and place the

cup in the microwave. Caution: Do not put the blades in the microwave!

3. Cook until ready, then remove with an oven mitt and serve.

25Cleaning and Storage Always pull the power cord before cleaning. Washing food processor attachments Juste place any of the pieces (except for the power base) on top shelf of the dishwasher, or hand wash with warm soapy water and rinse. Stubborn cleanup: When you let ingredients dry in the food processor or wehn you have melted cheese in the cups, make you cleanup a snap by lling the cup with soapy water and microwaving it for one minute. Note: Always make sure the gaskts are still inside after cleaning. The heat from the dish washers can cause them to become loose and pop out. Cleaning the food processor power base For the most part the power base does not really get dirty, but if you neglect to twist the blade onto the cup tightly, liquids can leak ut and get into the base and activator buttons. Here is how to clean it up:

1. Unplug the power base rst.

2. Use a damp rag to wipe down the inside and outside of the power base.

Sometimes the base gets so dirty that the title white sliders that activate the food proces- sor get sticky. This can cause the motor to continue to spin even after you have released the cup. When this happens:

1. Unplug the power base.

2. Use a damp rag to soften up the gunk around the activators as you work the activator

buttons up and down until they move freely again. Storing leftovers in the food processor cups You can prepare, cook and store your food all in the same vessel! No unnecessary dishes to clean, no plastic wrap, foil or plastic containers to deal with. Just twist on a stay-fresh lid and pop your leftovers in the refrigerator. You can even bring your leftovers to wirk of school, by just tossing the sealed cup into your bag and go! Then at work, you can reheat your leftovers in the microwave - all in the same cup. 26Warning: Danger of electrical shock Never submerge the power base in water or place it in dishwasher.
