Processing Tips and Techniques

•This food processor is excellent to chop, mix, slice, or shred most foods. However, to maintain peak performance, do not use your food processor for the following: grinding grain, coffee beans or spices; slicing frozen meat; or crushing ice.

•To achieve maximum capacity, use Chopping/Mixing blade of Big Mouth and add food no higher than the maxi- mum fill line on food chute. See Food Processing Charts for more informa- tion.

•Operating time will depend on quantity of food being processed. Most foods can be sliced, chopped, or shredded in seconds. If unit is operated for 2 minutes continuously, let the processor rest about 4 minutes before continuing.

Processing Using Chopping/Mixing Blade

•For a more uniform consistency, start with pieces of food that are

similar in size. Carrots, for example, should all be cut in 1-inch (2.5 cm) chunks. Do not process 4-inch (10 cm) pieces with 1⁄2-inch (1 cm) pieces.

The Chopping/Mixing Blade can be used to coarsely chop, finely mince, mix, or puree food to a smooth consis- tency.

1.Make sure the Control Switch is turned to OFF (O) and the unit is unplugged.

2.Lock the bowl onto base. (See “How to Lock the Bowl” on page 4.)

3.Place the Chopping/Mixing Blade onto motor shaft of food processor in center of bowl. Turn slowly until blade drops into place. Handle carefully; the blade is sharp.

4.Lock cover onto bowl. Insert food pusher into food chute.

•Do not puree or mash starchy vegetables like potatoes. They will be over-processed in a second and turn gummy.

5.Plug in unit and observe dial. Ready light should glow blue. Process food. The processing speed and time will determine the finished consistency of the food. The Pulse button can help you avoid overprocessing. Reference the food processing chart for recommended processing times and speeds.

6.When finished processing, select OFF (O) or release from PULSE posi- tion. Wait until blade has stopped rotating before removing cover.
