READ AND SAVE
THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power cord is pro ided to reduce the risk resulting from
entanglement or tripping o er a longer cord. Longer
detachable power supply cords are a ailable and may be used
if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power
cord or extension cord is used (1) the marked electrical rating
of the extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should
be arranged so that it will not drape o er the counter top or
table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped o er
unintentionally. The electrical rating of the appliance is listed on
the bottom of the unit. If the appliance is of the grounded type,
the extension cord should be a grounded type 3-wire cord.
This appliance has a polarized plug. One blade is wider than
the other. As a safety feature this plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

BEFORE YOUR FIRST USE
Carefully unpack your food processor and remo e all
packaging material, including the plastic blade co ers from the
blade assembly. Use caution when remo ing the plastic
co ers, the blades are extremely sharp. These co ers should
be discarded as they are to protect the blades during
manufacture and shipment. Remo e any labels or stickers
from the food processor. To remo e any dust that may ha e
accumulated during packaging, clean the food processor and
its included attachments thoroughly before using for the first
time. See Cleaning Your Food Processor and Parts section
of this manual for detailed instructions.
OPERATING YOUR FOOD PROCESSOR
1) Fit the detachable dri e shaft (2) o er the fixed shaft (3).
Then fit the bowl to the dri e shaft. Place the handle to-
wards the back and turn clockwise until it locks.
2) Fit an attachment o er the dri e shaft. Use caution when
attaching the blades, they are ery sharp. Be sure to always
fit the bowl and attachment onto the machine before adding
ingredients.
3) Fit the lid (5), ensuring that the top of the dri e shaft is cen-
tered inside the lid. Note: Do not use the lid to operate the
processor, always use the on/off or speed control (11).
Figure 2.

4) Plug the unit into a 120V/60Hz AC only outlet.
Press the I button (11) to switch the unit on.
Note: The food processor will not work if the bowl and lid are
not fitted properly.
5) Use the pulse control (9) for short bursts. The pulse will
operate for as long as the le er is held down. The pulse
control is indicated by the letter P.
6) Turn the unit off and unplug it before remo ing lid,
attachments and bowl. To remo e the bowl, turn it in a
counterclockwise direction. To remo e the detachable dri e
shaft from the bowl, just pull the shaft down.
OPERATING YOUR FOOD PROCESSOR (cont)
Figure 2
Note: Do not grind coffee beans or other food items of a
similar texture in the main bowl of the food processor. When
adding fla oring mixtures, a oid contact with the plastic as this
may result in permanent staining.

Stainless Steel Blade Assembly: Figure 4
1) The blade assembly is the most ersatile of all the
attachments. The length of the processing time will
determine the texture achie ed. For more coarse texture
use the pulse control.
2) Cut food such as meat, bread and egetables into cubes
approximately ¾-inch (1.9 cm) thick.
3) Take care not to o er-process.
Dough Hook: Figure 5
1) Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and pour the liquid
down the feed tube while the machine is running. Process
until a smooth elastic ball of dough is formed (this will take
about 60  90 seconds).
2) Re-knead the dough by hand only. Re-kneading the dough
in the bowl is not recommended as it may cause the
processor to become unstable.
USING THE ATTACHMENTS
Figure 5Figure 4 Figure

Double Whisk Beater: Figure 6
1) Use for light mixtures only. For example: egg whites,
cream, e aporated milk and for whisking eggs and sugar.
Hea ier mixtures such as flour will damage the beater.
2) Fit the detachable dri e shaft and bowl onto the power unit.
Push each beater securely into the dri e head.
3) Fit the whisk by carefully turning it until it drops o er the
dri e shaft.
4) Add the ingredients. Fit the lid, ensuring the end of the
shaft is centered inside the lid.
5) Best results are obtained when the eggs are at room
temperature. Ensure that the bowl and whisks are clean
and free from grease before whisking.
Maxi-Blend Canopy: Figure 7
1) When blending liquids, use the maxi-blend canopy with the
blade assembly. It allows you to increase the liquid
processing capacity from 1 liter (34 oz.) to 1.5 liters
(50 oz.). It pre ents leaking and impro es the chopping
performance of the blade.
2) Fit the detachable dri e shaft and bowl onto the power unit.
3) Carefully fit the blade assembly and add ingredients to be
processed.
4) Fit the canopy o er the top of the blade ensuring that it sits
on the ledge inside the bowl. Note: Do not push down on
the canopy, hold it by the center grip.
5) Fit the lid.
USING THE ATTACHMENTS (cont)
Figure 7 Figure 8

USING THE ATTACHMENTS (cont)
Suggestions for Use:
1) Use fresh ingredients. Do not cut food too small. Fill the
width of the large feed tube fairly full. This pre ents the
food from slipping sideways during processing.
Alternati ely, use a small feed tube.
2) When slicing and shredding, food placed upright comes
out shorter than food placed horizontally.
3) There will always be a small amount of excess food on the
plate or in the bowl after processing.
Stainless Steel Discs: Figure 8
Double Sided Thick / Thin Slicing and Shredding Discs:
1) Use the shredding section for cheese, carrots, potatoes
and foods of a similar texture.
2) Use the slicing section for cheese, carrots, potatoes,
cabbage, cucumbers and onions.
3) Thick disc (2.5 mm) / Thin disc (1.5 mm)
Julienne Disc: (4x4 mm)
1) Use it to cut: potatoes for Julienne-style French fries or
ingredients for salads, casseroles and stir frys
(Ex. carrots, cucumbers, etc.) Note: Ne er remo e the lid
until the disc has completely stopped rotating. Handle the
discs with care, they are extremely sharp.
2) Fit the detachable dri e shaft and bowl onto the power unit.
Holding the disc by the center grip, place the disc onto the
dri e shaft with the side that you want to use facing upright.
Fit the lid.
3) Choose which size feed tube you want to use. The large
feed tube contains a smaller feed tube for processing
indi idual items or small ingredients. To use the small feed
tube, place it inside the large feed tube.
4) Put the food in the feed tube. Turn the unit on and push
food down e enly with the stomper. Note: Ne er put your
fingers in the feed tube when the unit is on.

USING THE ATTACHMENTS (cont)
Citrus Juicer: Figure 9
1) Use the citrus juicer to squeeze juice
from citrus fruits (Ex. oranges,
lemons, limes and grapefruits).
2) Parts:
A) Juicing Cone
B) Strainer
3) Fit the detachable dri e shaft and
bowl onto to the power unit.
4) Fit the strainer into the bowl,
ensuring that the lip of the strainer is
locked into position directly o er the
bowl handle.
5) Place the juicing cone o er the dri e
shaft turning it until it drops all the
way down.
6) Cut the fruit in half. Then switch the
unit on and press the fruit onto the
juicing cone.
7) The citrus juicer will not operate if the
strainer is not locked correctly.

sauces and baby foods.)
2) Parts:
A) Stainelss Steel Blade Assembly
B) 4-Cup Capacity Bowl
3) Fit the main food processor bowl to the
power unit. Fit the 4-cup capacity bowl
inside the main food processor bowl,

capacity bowl align with the groo es on
the main bowl.
4) Place the blade assembly o er the dri e
shaft.
5) Add the ingredients to be processed.
6) Fit the lid and switch the unit on.
7) Ne er remo e the lid until the blade
assembly has completely stopped
