Cuisinart CBT-500FPC manual Food Processor Features, Food Processor Getting Started Step by Step

•If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar when blending, pulse in short bursts.

•Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop rotating between pulses.

Don’t:

•Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar.

•Don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base without the blender jar attached.

•Do not attempt to mash potatoes, knead heavy dough,

or beat egg whites. These can be done in the Food Processor.

•Don’t remove blender jar while unit is on. Keep the blender jar cover on the blender jar while blending.

•Don't twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender jar from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.

•Don’t overprocess foods. Blender will achieve most desired results in seconds, not minutes.

•Don’t overload blender. If the motor stalls, turn the blender off immediately, unplug the unit, and remove a portion of the food, then continue.

•Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while the motor is on.

•Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by Cuisinart®. Doing so may result in injury.

•Don’t place hands inside the blender jar when blender is plugged in.

•Don’t add boiling liquids or frozen foods [except ice cubes or 1/2-inch (1.25 cm) pieces of frozen fruit] to glass blender jar. Boiling liquids should cool for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar.
