FOOD PROCESSOR  

MANUAL CONTROLS

On the left-hand side of your screen, you will 

find the manual buttons for the food processor 

functions.

HIGH and LOW Speed Buttons

Pressing the HIGH or LOW buttons allows the 

machine to run until the HIGH or LOW button – 

or the       START/STOP button – is pressed 

again to turn the food processor off.
1.   Press  the  HIGH or LOW button to start 

processing. Time will count up by the 

second in time display.

2.   Pause or stop operation by pressing  

HIGH or LOW button again, or pressing the  

      START/STOP button on the opposite 

side of the screen.

3.  To restart, press HIGH or LOW once more.

PULSE Button

The PULSE button allows the machine to run  

only while the button is being pressed.  

This provides more precise control of both 

duration and frequency of processing.  

Unless otherwise specified, one pulse should  

be about two seconds. When using the PULSE 

button, the screen will display a count of how 

many pulses you have done.
With the Work Bowl and Food Processor Lid  

properly in place and ingredients in the bowl, 

press and release the PULSE button repeatedly 

until the consistency you want is reached.  

The number of pulses will count up in display.

FOOD PROCESSOR 

FUNCTIONS AND PRESETS

Scroll through Home Screen to select FOOD 

PROCESSOR; press ENTER. The following 

functions will appear on screen. Scroll through 

the functions and press ENTER to select.
When you select a function, a preset SPEED 

will appear on screen. You may use the preset 

or adjust if necessary. The required accessories 

for each function will also be displayed.

Chop/Blend

Use for chopping/blending tasks  

like mincing, emulsifying, and 

combining ingredients for soups, 

sauces, chili and more.

Slice

Use for all slicing tasks. The 

adjustable slicing disc slices foods 

from 1 (thinnest) to 7 (thickest),  

for scalloped potatoes, fruit and 

vegetable trays, and burger fixings.

Shred

Use the reversible shredding disc –  

one side for fine, one side for coarse – 

to shred a variety of cheeses, 

vegetables for salads and slaws.

Dice

Use the Dicing Kit to create perfect 

little cubes of fruits, vegetables and 

more. Ideal for soups, salads and 

garnishes. See Dicing Kit Assembly 

instructions on page 14.

Purée

Use this function to make puréed 

soups and smooth purées of fresh 

and cooked fruits and vegetables. 

This setting is also ideal for 

homemade baby food.

Dough

Knead yeast doughs for bread, pizza 

and dinner rolls. Faster and easier 

than kneading by hand.

Whisk

Whip up voluminous meringues and 

velvety smooth cream toppings.
