Cuisinart DLC-8S manual  Always insert metal blade

Page 27

Chopping certain foods may scratch or cloud the work bowl. Among them are ice, whole spices and oils, like wintergreen. If you like to prepare your own spice blends, you may want to keep a second bowl just for that purpose.

The base housing is made of a durable, high impact resistant plastic. Its smooth surface will look new for years. Keep a sponge handy as you work to wipe spills from the base.

Four rubber feet under the base help keep it stable on most work surfaces even when processing heavy loads. If the feet leave spots on the counter, spray them with a spot remover like Fantastik® or K2-R®and wipe with a damp sponge. If any trace of the spot remains, repeat the pro- cedure and wipe the area with a damp sponge and nonabrasive cleaning powder.

To clean the inside of the detachable stem, slide the stem release button up as far as it will go and hold as you run water through the stem.

IMPORTANT: Never store any blade or disc on the motor shaft. No blade or disc should be placed on the shaft except when the processor is about to be used.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Like all powerful electrical appliances, a Food Processor should be handled with care. Follow these guidelines to protect you and your family from misuse that could cause injury.

Handle metal blade and discs carefully. Their cutting edges are very sharp.

Always place discs on flat, stable surface before connecting detachable stem.

Never put blade or disc on motor shaft until work bowl is locked in place.

Always be sure that the blade or disc is down on motor shaft as far as it will go.

Always insert metal blade

in work bowl before putting ingredients in bowl.

When slicing or shredding food, always use pusher. Never put your fingers or spatula into feed tube.

Always wait for blade or disc to stop spinning before you remove pusher assembly or cover from work bowl.

Always remove work bowl from base of machine before you remove metal blade or dough blade.

Be careful to prevent metal blade from falling out of work bowl when emptying bowl.

25

Remove blade before tilting bowl, or hold it in place with your finger, a spatula or spoon.

Never use pusher assembly if sleeve becomes detached from pusher. Call Cuisinart Customer Service immediately at 1-800-726-0190.

SOME TECHNICAL DATA The motor in your food processor operates on standard line operating current. The appropriate voltage and frequency for your machine are shown on a label under the base.

An automatic, temperature- controlled circuit breaker in the motor ensures complete protection against motor burnout. If the processor runs for an exceptionally long time when chopping, mixing or kneading

a thick or heavy mixture in successive batches, the motor may overheat. If this happens, the processor will stop. Turn it off and wait for the motor to cool off before proceeding. It will usually cool off within 10 minutes. In extreme cases, it could take an hour.

Safety switches prevent the machine from operating when the work bowl or the cover is not locked into position. The motor stops within seconds when the motor is turned off, and a fast- stop circuit stops it instantly when the pusher assembly is unlocked.
