For
You control the duration and frequency of pulses by the length of time you hold the Food Processor button down and the rate at which you press it. Allow enough time between pulses to let food in work bowl fall to bottom.
Always use the button for pulse/chopping. Never turn cover back and forth to start and stop processor.
USING THE SMARTPOWER DUET® BLENDER/FOOD PROCESSOR TO CHOP, PURÉE, AND MIX
Refer to Food Processor Assembly instructions on page 6.
1.Remove cover and put food into work bowl.
First, cut food into 3/4"(1.9cm) pieces. You will get a more even chop if you start with pieces that are all the same size.
Put pieces into work bowl with metal blade in place. You can put in up to
1 cup of food at a time. If you want to process more, do it in batches.
2.Put on cover and lock it. Insert pusher. It is recommended that one hand be placed on the food processor lid while in use for unit stability. Press the On button, press the Pulse button, and the Food Processor button (to pulse), then release. Repeat two to three times. Each time blade stops, let food pieces drop to the bottom of bowl before pulsing again. This ensures that the blade will chop them at every pulse.
Watch what happens to the food. With pulse/chopping technique, you can get an even chop without danger of overprocessing. Check texture by looking through work bowl. Be careful not to overprocess.
For a coarse chop, pulse only a few times.
3.If you want a finer chop or purée, press the On button and then the Food Processor button and let machine run continuously until the food is chopped as fine as you want it. Check frequently through clear cover or bowl to avoid chopping
