Make sure the anti-slip rubber ring (12g) is
attached to the bottom of the food processor
bowl.
Assembly and Operation
•
Carefully remove the plastic cover from the
blade.
•
The blade (12h) is very sharp! Always hold it by
the upper plastic part and handle it carefully.
•
Place the blade on the center pin of the bowl
(12f). Press it down and give it a turn so that it
locks into place.
•
Fill the bowl with food. Attach the lid (12a) to the
bowl with the latch (12e) positioned to the right of
the bowl handle and align with marks.
•
To lock the lid, turn it clockwise so that the latch
engages with a click.
•
Insert the motor part (4) into the coupling (12b)
until it locks.
•
Plug in the appliance and insert the pusher (12c)
in the feed tube (12d).
•
To operate the food processor, switch on the
appliance. During processing, hold the motor
part with one hand and the food processor bowl
on the handle.
•
When chopping is complete, unplug and press
the release buttons (5) to detach the motor part.
•
Press the lid latch (12e) and hold it. Turn the lid
(12a) counter-clockwise to unlatch it.
•
Lift the lid up. Carefully take out the blade before
pouring out the contents of the bowl. To remove
and unlock the blade, slightly turn it then pull it
off.
Caution
•
Do not use the food processor accessory to
chop extremely hard foods, such as unshelled
nuts, ice cubes, coffee beans, grains or hard
spices e.g. nutmeg. Processing these foods
could damage the blades.
•
Never place the food processor bowl in the
microwave oven.
Using the blade (12h), you may also mix light batter
like a pancake batter or a cake mixture based on up
to 250 g of flour.
Recipe Example: Pancake Batter
1.5 cups / 375 ml milk
2 cups / 250 g plain flour
2 eggs
•
Pour milk into the bowl, then add flour and finally
the eggs.
•
Using full speed, mix the batter until smooth.
Slicing / Shredding / Julienne / French Fry (F)
Use the fine and coarse slicing inserts (i) to slice
raw fruit and vegetables into fine, thin slices; e.g.
cucumbers, onions, mushrooms, apples, carrots,
radishes, potatoes, zucchini and cabbage.
Use the fine and coarse shredding inserts (ii) to
shred foods such as apples, carrots, potatoes,
beetroot, cabbage, hard cheese (like Parmesan).
Use the julienne insert (iii) to cut fruit and vegetable
into julienne.
For best results the quantity of processed food
should not exceed 1/2 of working bowl.
Use the French fry disc (12j) to prepare french fries.
Refer to the Processing Guide F for recommended
speeds.
Assembly and Operation
•
For slicing / shredding / julienning place an insert
into the insert holder (12i) and snap into position.
Place the assembled insert holder or French fry
disc on the center pin of the bowl and give it a
turn so that it locks into place.
•
Attach the lid to the bowl with the latch
positioned to the right of the bowl handle.
•
To lock the lid, turn it clockwise so that the latch
engages with a click.
•
Insert the motor part into the coupling until it
locks.
•
Plug in the appliance and insert the food to be
processed into the feed tube.
•
For best French fry results, place 3-4 potatoes
(depending on the size) in the feed tube of the lid
while the motor is switched off.
•
Switch the appliance on to operate. Never reach
into the feed tube when the appliance is switched
on. Always use the pusher to feed in food.
•
After use, unplug and press the release buttons
to detach the motor body.
•
Press the lid latch and hold it. Turn the lid
counter-clockwise to unlatch it.
