BEFORE USING YOUR OSTER®
FOOD PROCESSOR
•
When unpacking the product and removing packing material, handle
the chopping blade and slice/shred discs carefully: they are very sharp.
•
Wash all parts except the Base in hot, soapy water. Rinse them dry.
These parts can also be placed in the dishwasher. Be sure to read the
Care & Cleaning Section of this manual to learn the correct methods
for taking the unit apart and cleaning.
HOW TO:
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, beat egg
whites, grind coff ee 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.

the unit without the bowl lid, bowl and food chute lid correctly in place. Be
sure base is on a fl at, dry and clean surface before you begin processing.
