FOOD PROCESSING TIPS

Liquids

•Hot liquids (not boiling) and hot foods can be processed in container.

•Be sure to process small amounts of liquids — 3 cups or less at a time. Larger amounts may leak from container.

Meat

•When using the chopping blade for processing meat, cut the meat into

1" (25.4mm) cubes. Do not put more than 10.5 ounces (300g) of meat into the container at a time.

Food Size, Preparation and Loading

•When using different foods in a recipe, process dry ingredients first and moist ingredients later. This reduces the number of times container must be washed and dried.

•You can use the disc in combination with the chopping blade. Just position chopping blade in bowl and press slice/shred disc with desired side (slice or shred) down onto hub of chopping blade. Using the 2 parts together can eliminate having to pre-cut foods into cubes — perfect when shredding and chopping cheese such as parmesan to get a finer grated result.

Clogging in the continuous flow side chute (Models FP1445, FP1435) Occasionally sliced or shredded food may clog in the side chute. Follow these tips to avoid clogging:

5

•Be sure the stopper is removed entirely when using continuous flow side chute. It is normal for some pieces to fall into processor container.

•Use a large serving bowl to help catch spatter from side chute and turn bowl as it fills to prevent food buildup in the exit chute.

•Be sure to use correct side of discharge disc — for leafy vegetables (lettuce, cabbage, etc.) use tall tab side up; For slicing and shredding other foods, use short tab side up.

•Clip the food fingers inside the food chute to keep food from tilting and help achieve even slices.

•If clogging does occur, never stick anything up chute to try to dislodge food. Shut off and unplug unit. Then unscrew cover/food chute to clear a blockage.

Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

CLEANING

1.Before cleaning, be sure unit is off and cord is unplugged.

2.Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy cleanup.

3.Wipe base and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Stubborn spots can be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Do not immerse base in liquid.

4.All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher. To remove food fingers, pull up on clip portion.

•If washing by hand, wash in sudsy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.

If necessary, use a small nylon bristle brush to thoroughly clean container and food chute, continuous flow side chute /cover.
