On — When this button is pressed, the unit will run continuously until the Off button is pressed.

Use the On position for longer processing tasks, such as making dressings, smooth spreads, peanut butter, dips, etc.

Off — The Processor should always be left in the Off position when the unit is not in use. Pulse — The Pulse position must be pressed and held for the unit to operate. When it is

Be sure the Cover is turned fully into the slot toward LOCK until you hear it click into place. Do not attempt to operate the unit without the Cover being correctly in place. Be sure the Bowl is locked into the Base and the Base is on a flat, dry, clean surface before you begin processing.
