Frequently Asked Questions - KAX700PL KENWOOD

Which Kenwood food processors are compatible with the KAX700PL accessory?

The accessory is compatible with latest generation Chef machines (types KVC, KVL, KCC, KWL, KCL) and KMix machines with a low-speed outlet (type KMX) and the Twist connection system. If your machine has the Bar system, you will need the KAT001ME adapter.

How do I install the accessory on my machine?

First remove the splash guard assembly from the machine. Lift the low-speed outlet cover, then insert the accessory into the outlet in a vertical position and turn to lock. Ensure the lid is properly closed (▼ symbol aligned with ).

What foods can I spiralize?

Use firm vegetables and fruits, without pits or hollow centers, with a diameter greater than 5 cm. Examples: carrots, courgettes, beetroots, apples, firm pears, sweet potatoes. Avoid soft, juicy or overripe foods.

How to get beautiful spirals?

Cut the ends of the food to create a flat surface, attach them to the pusher blade. Use the Max speed of the machine and hold the pusher without forcing. For very thin foods, they may produce half-moons instead of spirals.

Can I wash the parts in the dishwasher?

Yes, removable parts (cones, cone holder, lid, pusher) are dishwasher safe. However, the body should only be wiped with a damp cloth. Caution: blades are very sharp, handle with care.

What if the accessory doesn't work?

Check that the machine is turned on and the lid is properly locked (the lid will not close if the cone holder or cone is incorrectly installed). If the problem persists, consult the troubleshooting guide in the manual or visit www.kenwoodworld.com.

Vegetables turn black after cutting, what to do?

Some foods like apples, pears or potatoes oxidize quickly. To prevent this, add lemon juice or immerse them in cold water immediately after cutting.

Can I use the accessory for hot preparations?

The accessory is designed for raw foods. The spirals can then be steamed, blanched, boiled or fried. Be careful not to use overly soft vegetables that would disintegrate.

Where can I buy additional cones?

Replacement cones are available from Kenwood after-sales service. Visit www.kenwoodworld.com to find an authorized dealer.

What to do in case of breakdown or defect?

Return or send the appliance to an authorized Kenwood repair center. Visit www.kenwoodworld.com for the nearest center. Your product is covered by legal warranty.

hints & tips

• Use spiralized vegetables to replace pasta and noodles.
• Use firm fruits and vegetables without stones, seeds or hollow centres.
• Do not use soft, juicy or overripe foods as they will fall apart when spiralized.
• Many important vitamins and nutrients are found in the skin of fruit and vegetables, so only remove if inedible.
• Select vegetables that are as straight as possible.
• Cut the end of the food to create a flat surface to ensure it can be attached to the end of the pusher. Uneven ends will make it difficult to secure to the end of the pusher causing poor results.
• Ensure that the diameter of the food is more than 5 cm so that it can be attached securely to the end of the pusher.
• You will be left with a cone shaped end pieces at the end of spiralizing. These pieces can be sliced and used.
• Lightly steam, blanch, boil or stir fry the spiralized food.
