USING YOUR FOOD PROCESSOR
NOTE: This appliance is equipped with a protective device against high
temperatures. If the temperature becomes too high, the unit will turn off
automatically and resume operation after the motor has cooled down sufficiently
(after about 30mins).
NOTE: Do not operate the appliance for more than 1min at a time. Suggested
usage: 1min on and 3mins off, max. 5 cycles, then turn off the machine and let it
cool down to room temperature.
Installation
1. Position the motor base (2) on a flat and dry surface.
2. Position the processing bowl (3) on to the motor base, turn clockwise to fix it
firmly.
3. Place driving shaft (4) on to the rotor inside the bowl, place it vertically.
4. Open the blade storage box (11) of the motor base and take out the blade
you want. For example, when using the chopping blade (13) or kneading
blade (12), just place it in the driving shaft (4). When using the slicing,
grating or french fry blades, attach them to the blade holder (5) first and then
place the blade holder (5) in the driving shaft (4).
ATTENTION : Only one blade can be used at a time.
5. Put the ingredients into the processing bowl (3) and then close the bowl
cover (6) when using the chopping blade (13) or kneading blade (12). When
using slicing, grating or french fry blades, make sure to lock the bowl cover
(6) first. Ingredients should be filled through the feed chute after the machine
is ready.
6. Lock the bowl cover (6) and the protection cover (8) - the safety lock (7) will
then be active.
7. At this point, the switch should be on 0 speed. Plug in the appliance and use
the pulse function to confirm whether the machine is correctly assembled. If
there is anything abnormal, unplug the machine and re-assemble as above.

Kneading blade (12)
Standard processing time is 15secs. Use speed 6~7. If using for whisking or to
make a milkshake, please choose speed 1~5. For appropriate volumes per batch,
please refer to the following table:
Tips and warning
The ratio of flour to water when making dough is 1:0.6, which means 800g flour
needs 480g water to achieve the best result. The standard processing time is
within 15secs using speed 7. That’s because the flour will become sticky and
stick to the blade adapter if the kneading time is too long. This can cause the
machine to shake and work abnormally.
There are 1-7 speed gears from slow to fast and a pulse gear on the rotary
switch. Please choose appropriate speeds according to the food hardness and
your processing needs. Normally, soft food can be processed by low speeds. If
the food fails to be processed or is stirred very slowly, it means that the speed is
inappropriate. Then you need to use a higher speed.
Medium & fine slicing & grating blade, french fry blade (15-19)
Standard processing time is 1min.
1. Choose the blade according to ingredients and the shape you want. Put the
blade you choose into the plastic blade holder (5), then place it in the driving
shaft (4), close the processing bowl cover and lock the feed chute cover with
the safety lock (7) on lid.
2. To process small pieces of food, insert the big pusher (9) in bowl cover (6)
and gradually feed the pieces into the opening, then using the small pusher
(10) inserted into the large pusher (9), push the pieces into the food
processor with moderate pressure. If large pieces are to be processed, then
feed the large pieces into the bowl cover (6), insert the large pusher (9) and
push the food into the food processor with moderate pressure. This will
prevent blockages and excessive force being needed.
3. If the food item is big such as a whole potato or large vegetable pieces,
please open the feed chute cover, put the food in, close the cover and then,
with moderate pressure, use the big pusher (9) with the small pusher (10) on
it for safe operation.
4. Take care when pushing the ingredients in the feed chute with the pusher, do
not force the pusher too hard. It is better to chop larger ingredients into
smaller pieces to fit the feed chute. A lower speed is recommended when
slicing softer ingredients.
Tips and warning
All the blades are very sharp, so please take care when handling them.
When cleaning the chopping blade, it is better to put it into the chopping blade
cover (14) to avoid exposure to the edge of the blade.
The spatula (20) should only be used to remove ingredients from the bowl after
the machine has stopped. It is strictly prohibited to put the spatula into the bowl
while the food processor is on.
Blender jug (23)
Standard processing time is 1min.
1. Prepare the ingredients, put them in the blender jug (23) and put the blender
cover (24) in place.
2. Position the blender jug (21-24) on motor base; turn clockwise to fix it firmly.
3. The switch should be on 0 speed. Plug in and use pulse 2-3 times for
pre-blending.
4. Choose speeds 1 to 7 for processing. During operation, you can take out
the small lid on blender cover (24) and add water or any other ingredients
you want through the feeding hole.
5. Do not open the blender cover (24) to add ingredients during operation!
6. Always add in some water when using the blender for ice crushing.
Grinder (25/ 21-22)
Standard processing time is 1min.
1. Put the motor base on a flat and dry surface.
2. The plastic blender jug and grinder cup share a common blade base. Turn
anti-clockwise to remove the blender jug from the blade base and then fix
the grinder cup firmly to the blade base (turn clockwise).
3. Put your chosen ingredients into the grinder (as above picture shows). Please
do not overfill the grinder cup - fill about halfway.
4. Attach the grinder cup/ blade base to the motor base. Turn clockwise and
make sure the safety lock is firmly in place.
5. The switch should be on 0 speed. Plug in and use pulse 2-3 times for
pre-grinding. Choose 7 speed for grinding.
6. Do not use continuously for more than 30secs at a time. Stop for 1min to let
the motor cool down before repeating.
7. After grinding is complete, turn the speed control knob to 0. Turn
anti-clockwise to take off the grinder. Turn the grinder container upside
down and tap with moderate force to make sure that all the ground contents
fall into the container. As per chart 1, dissasemble the grinder and remove
the contents.
