Discs - tips and warnings
Do not exert too much pressure on the pusher when you press ingredients down
the feeding tube.
Do not let the appliance run too long when you shred (hard) cheese. Otherwise
the cheese becomes too hot, starts to melt and turns lumpy.
Do not use the shredding disc to shred chocolate. Only use the food processor
blade unit for this purpose.
Do not fill the bowl beyond the MAX indication.
1 Pre-cut large ingredients to make them fit into the feeding tube.

Fill the feeding tube evenly for the best results.
- When you shred or granulate soft ingredients, use a low speed to prevent the
ingredients from turning into a puree.
- If the ingredients you are going to shred or slice have a small diameter, put the
outer pusher in the feeding tube to make the feeding tube smaller. Then use the
inner pusher to push the ingredients down the feeding tube.
- When you have to process a large amount of ingredients, process small
batches and empty the bowl between batches.
Balloon beater - tips and warnings
You can use the balloon beater to whip cream, to whisk eggs and egg whites and
to make instant pudding, mayonnaise and sponge cake mixture. Do not use the
balloon beater to prepare cake mixtures with butter or margarine or to knead
dough. Use the kneading accessory for these jobs.
Do not fill the bowl beyond the MAX indication.
- Make sure the bowl and the balloon beater are dry and free from grease when
you whisk egg whites. The egg whites have to be at room temperature.
- Always clean the balloon beater after use.
