Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug
(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The
plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or
by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace
the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over
a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved
extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the
extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the
appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord
so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where
it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another
high- wattage appliance on the same circuit with your appliance.

Chopping Tips
Processing Chart
• The bowl has a capacity of 3 cups (710 ml). For liquid ingredients,
do not exceed 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) (MAX LIQUID FILL line on bowl).
• For more control, process by pressing lid briefly, then releasing.
Check consistency and continue if desired.
• Tear bread into pieces; then process to make bread crumbs. Break
crackers or cookies into pieces; then process into crumbs for use
as recipe ingredients or pie crusts.
• To chop carrots, celery, mushrooms, green pepper, or onion, cut
into 1-inch (2.54-cm) chunks and place in bowl. This will result in
more uniform consistency.
• Chop nuts; mince parsley, basil, chives, or garlic.
• Do not process raw meat, coffee beans, or whole, hard spices in
the molcajete. This could damage the electric molcajete.
