Frequently Asked Questions - TC-850 Home Electric

How do I use the pulse function?

The pulse function provides short bursts of power for precise control. Press and hold the pulse button; release to stop. Ideal for chopping nuts or mixing delicate ingredients.

Can I process hot ingredients in the TC-850?

No, do not process hot liquids or ingredients above 60°C. The bowl is not heat-resistant and may warp or crack. Allow food to cool before processing.

How should I clean the bowl and accessories?

All removable parts (bowl, lid, blades, discs) are dishwasher safe. For hand washing, use warm soapy water and dry thoroughly. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth.

Is the bowl BPA-free?

Yes, the bowl and all plastic parts are made from BPA-free materials, safe for food contact.

What is the maximum capacity for dough?

For dough making, fill the bowl no more than half full (about 1.25 kg of dough) to avoid overloading the motor. Use the dough hook accessory.

Can I crush ice with the TC-850?

Yes, use the pulse function with the S-blade to crush ice. Add ice cubes gradually and pulse until desired consistency. Do not run continuously.

How do I attach the slicing disc?

Place the disc onto the central spindle with the slicing side up. Secure the lid by aligning the marks and twisting clockwise until it clicks. Ensure the locking handle is engaged.

Why does the motor stop during use?

The motor has a thermal overload protector. If it stops, unplug and let it cool for 15-20 minutes. Check for blockages or overloading. Reduce quantity and restart.

Does the TC-850 have a safety lock?

Yes, the appliance will not operate unless the bowl and lid are correctly locked in place. The locking handle must be firmly closed.

Where can I find replacement parts?

Replacement parts (bowls, blades, discs) are available from Home Electric authorized dealers or online customer support. Use only genuine parts for safety.
