INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Cuisinart® PowerPrep Plus® Food Processor. This product is the ultimate food preparation tool, and it comes from the originator of the American food processor, Cuisinart.

The Cuisinart® PowerPrep Plus® has all the elements of quality that Cuisinart is known for, including a powerful motor, the largest work bowl, and the longest warranty in the industry.

It also introduces some new features that will set the industry standard. These are:

•The Cuisinart® Supreme™ Wide Mouth Feed Tube, which is more than twice the size of any other available. Perfect for slicing whole fruits and vegetables.
