ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS
Before first use
Before using your Cuisinart Elite Collection
®
7-Cup (1.75 L) Food Processor for the first time,
wash the work bowl, work bowl cover, pusher,
blade, disc, and spatula (see Cleaning
Instructions on page 10).
1. Place the food processor base on a dry,
level countertop with the controls facing
you. Do not plug the unit in until it
is fully assembled.
2. With the bowl on the base, use
the handle to turn the work bowl
counterclockwise to lock it onto the
housing base.
Blade Operation
The BladeLock feature is designed to
keep the blade in place during processing,
pouring, lifting, and handling tasks – but is
not permanently engaged.
Handle with
care. Always check to be sure the blade
is securely locked before turning the
bowl upside down.
Note: The chopping/mixing/kneading
blade should not be removed when
liquid contents are above the hub of the
blade in the bowls, as this will defeat the
SealTight
™
system.
Blade Operation
3. With the work bowl assembled on the
base, grasp the chopping/mixing/kneading
blade by its hub, align it over the center of
the bowl, place it on the shaft and turn it
until it slides into place. Firmly push down
to lock.
Always check to be sure the
blade is securely locked before turning
the bowl upside down.
(To remove, first
take the bowl off the base and put it on a
flat surface. Rest the heel of your hand on
the rim of the bowl and pull up gently and
carefully.)
Disc Operation
4. Position the stem adapter over the center
of the bowl, and slide it down the motor
shaft. Select which disc side to use for
slicing or shredding, and place over the
stem adapter.
Cover Operation
5. Put the work bowl cover on the work bowl
by latching the back on first and then
pushing down on the
front to lock into place.
Be sure both front and
back locks are fully
engaged.
Another way to put the
cover on is by
positioning it directly
over the bowl, and
pushing down on the
front and back.
To remove the cover,
push in both sides of
the release button
(located on the cover
interlock) and lift up to
remove.
Note: The work bowl
cover fits, locks and
seals on the bowl. The
work bowl cover will
become easier to engage with repeated
use. The seal is removable for cleaning,
but must be replaced for each operation.
6. Align pusher over the feed tube opening on
the work bowl cover and slide it down
completely.
7. Plug the food processor into a proper
electrical outlet. It is now ready for use.
Note: The bowl and lid must be securely in
place for the unit to operate.
