HELPFUL TIPS WHEN USING THE DOUGH BLADE
• For best results do not prepare recipes using more than 3 ½ cups flour.
• Begin with 1 cup less than the maximum amount of flour and add additional flour, as
needed, once mixture is well blended.
• Pour liquid through food chute in a slow steady stream..
• Knead dough no longer than 1 minute.
• Do not leave processor unattended during operation.
SLICING OR SHREDDING INTO LARGE WORKBOWL
Use the SLICE/SHRED function to slice and shred cheese, vegetables and fruit.
1. Lock large workbowl into position (see Illustration B).
2. Inserting your fingers into the 3 large holes on the disc with desired side up, place disc stem
onto center post in workbowl.
3. Carefully place the slicing/shredding disc on stem with appropriate side up for work to be
done. Place disc with shredding or slicing blade just to the left of the food chute to allow the
disc one full rotation before coming in contact with the food.
4. Place cover on workbowl and lock into place by rotating cover counterclockwise
(see Illustration C).
5. For larger foods, place food in food chute and cover with multifunctional
feed chute with food pusher in place. For smaller foods, place
multifunctional food chute in place and feed food through the center
opening using the food pusher to guide the food through the chute (G).
6. Press SLICE/SHRED button; press lightly but firmly on multifunctional feed
chute or food pusher to guide food through processor.
Note: Heavy pressure on the pusher does not speed the work; use the pusher only as a guide.
Let the processor do the work
7. When finished, press the PULSE/STOP button and allow disc to stop revolving before
removing cover. Twist cover toward (
) to remove.
8. Carefully remove slicing/shredding disc, unlock workbowl by turning it clockwise toward
(
) and lift off base.
9. Empty workbowl.
10. Unplug appliance when not in use.
SLICING OR SHREDDING INTO SMALL WORKBOWL
Use the SLICE/SHRED function to slice and shred cheese, vegetables and fruit.
1. Lock large workbowl into position (see Illustration B).
2. Place disc stem onto center post in workbowl.
3. Insert the small bowl onto the center post fitting the 3 tabs on the outside of the bowl into
the notches on the large bowl that will hold the small bowl firmly in place.
4. Carefully place the slice/shred disc on stem with appropriate side up for work to be done.
Place disc with shredding or slicing blade just to the left of the food chute to allow the disc
one full rotation before coming in contact with the food.
5. Place cover on workbowl and lock into place by rotating cover counterclockwise
(see Illustration C).
6. Follow steps 6 through 10 for slicing and shredding in the large workbowl.
HELPFUL TIPS WHEN SLICING AND SHREDDING
• Before slicing round fruits and vegetables through the processor cut a thin slice from the
bottom so food will be more stable. Place food cut side down in feed chute.
• Always remove seeds, core and pits before processing.
• Select foods that are firm and not over ripe.
• Remove the core from hard vegetables, such as cabbage.
• When slicing thinner vegetables cut them just short of the length of the food chute; this
will allow the pusher to engage the interlock mechanism on the processor. Stand them
vertically in the food chute so they are solidly packed and cannot turn or tilt.
• Shred hard cheeses at room temperature.
• Soft and semi hard cheeses should be well chilled before shredding.
• After food has been processed, remove the cover and invert on countertop.
• Remove the slicing/shredding disc before removing the workbowl from the processor.
Place the disc on top of the inverted workbowl cover.
GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR USING THE PROCESSOR
• Organize processing tasks to avoid multiple cleanups of the bowl; process dry
before wet.
• Once workbowl cover has been removed from the processor place it upside down
to hold the blades or discs to keep counter clean.
• Although plastic parts of the processor are dishwasher safe, wash them by hand to retain
their clear appearance.
• To easily clean the workbowl, once empty add a drop of detergent and a little hot water
and pulse several times. Rinse before re-using.
• The processor will be more efficient if filled no more than ½ to ²/³ full.
• To take advantage of the speed of the processor, drop foods through the food chute with
the processor running.
• Apply light pressure on the pusher for soft foods (berries and tomatoes) and slightly more
pressure for hard foods (onions and potatoes).
• Do not process foods that are so frozen or hard that the tip of a knife cannot be inserted
into the food.
• When chopping sticky dried fruits, place the fruits in the freezer for about 10 minutes
and add a little flour to keep the pieces from sticking together.
• Chill soft cheeses before slicing and shredding to prevent the cheese from rolling into a
ball on the disc.
• When using the slicing / shredding disc do not let the food accumulate too high; stop
and empty the workbowl.
• Do not use the processor to:
- Grind bones, grains or hard spices
- Liquefy fruits and vegetables
- Slice or chop warm meat and hard cooked eggs.
