Using Your Food Processor
NOTE: Do not attempt to chop ice in this food processor; it will damage the bowl
and dull the Chopping Blade. This unit will not whip cream or beat egg whites
to a desirable volume without additional whisk accessory. This unit will also not
grind coffee beans, spices or other items with high oil content, or slice or shred
hard-cooked eggs, marshmallows, or soft cheeses.
Important: For your protection, this unit has an interlock system. The processor
will not operate unless the bowl is properly locked onto the base and cover is
properly locked onto the bowl. Do not attempt to operate the unit without the
bowl lid, bowl and food chute lid correctly in place. Be sure base is on a flat, dry
and clean surface before you begin processing.
NOTE: Before you begin, PLEASE BE SURE THAT THE ELECTRIC CORD IS UNPLUGGED.
How To Assemble The Bowl
Align the base and bowl as illustrated in
Figure 1. Align the bowl handle with the UNLOCK
mark on the base. Turn the bowl counter-
clockwise until it clicks onto the base. The
bowl handle should now align with the LOCK
mark on the base. (The bowl handle will be
positioned above the control buttons).
NOTE: There is only one position for the
bowl to lock onto the base. The unit will
not operate if the bowl does not lock
onto the base.
How to Lock the Cover
Place the cover onto the bowl. Align the
mark on the cover and the mark on the
bowl (as illustrated in Figure 2). Twist the
cover counter-clockwise towards the LOCK
until it clicks onto the bowl. The mark on
the cover should now align with the mark
on the bowl.
NOTE: When the cover is locked into
position, the safety mechanism on the cover
and bowl will align. The unit will not operate
if the cover is not locked onto the bowl.
NOTE: BOWL MUST BE LOCKED INTO BASE BEFORE COVER CAN BE LOCKED
INTO POSITION.
