PROBLEM
EASY SOLUTION
The food processor
shuts off during
operation
• The lid may have become unlocked, check to make sure
it is securely in position.
• If the motor overloads, the ‘OVERLOAD’ icon in the LCD will
start to flash. Switch off by pressing the POWER/OFF button
and unplug the power cord. Allow the food processor to cool
for 20–30 minutes before resuming.
The motor
slowed down
during operation.
• This is normal as some heavier loads may require the motor
to work harder. Reposition the food in the feed chute and
continue processing.
• The maximum load capacity may have been exceeded.
Refer to the Instruction Booklet for maximum quantities.
Remove some of the ingredients and continue processing.
The food processor
vibrates/moves
during processing
• Make sure the rubber feet at the bottom of the unit are clean
and dry. Also make sure that the maximum load capacity
is not being exceeded.
Dough doesn’t
fully incorporate
ingredients
• When kneading dough, always start the food processor before
adding liquid. Add liquid in a slow, steady stream, allowing the
dry ingredients to absorb it. If too much liquid is added, wait
until ingredients in the processing bowl have mixed, then add
remaining liquid slowly (do not turn off the machine). Pour liquid
onto the dough as it passes under the feed chute opening,
do not pour liquid directly onto the bottom of the processing bowl.
Dough feels tough
after kneading
• Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces and redistribute evenly
in processing bowl. Process 10 seconds or until uniformly
soft and pliable.
Dough is too dry
• While machine is running, add water through the small feed
chute, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough cleans the inside
of the processing bowl.
Dough is too wet
• While machine is running, add flour through the small feed
chute, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough cleans the inside
of the processing bowl.
