Preparing your food processor
Before using your food processor
Check the appliance after unpacking for any visual damage or missing parts
such as:
•Misaligned or damaged casing.
•Damage to the plug or cable.
•If any parts are missing or there is any damage, please refer to page 16
for Customer Services.
Clean your food processor
Before using the food processor you should clean the removable jugs and
plastic accessories in warm soapy water, with a soft cloth or sponge. Be
careful when cleaning any blades, dip in soapy water and clean using a long
nylon cleaning brush. At no point should you touch any blade as this could
be harmful.
Do not immerse the base unit in any liquid.
If the unit is unplugged, you can clean the body with a damp soft cloth and
mild detergent.
Allow all parts to thoroughly dry before using.
Choose a suitable place for use
Place the food processor on a flat, stable surface with a plug socket close by.
Do not place in close proximity to any source of heat.
If you apply a small amount of downwards pressure, the feet on the base
should secure to the surface. This helps to prevent the unit from moving
around during use.
Once you have cleaned your food processor and prepared a suitable place
for use, you are now ready to begin preparing your food.
