Whisking

Chopping and Grinding

Processing Food

1.Place the prep bowl firmly on a flat sturdy surface like a countertop. Be sure the blade is assembled to use the blade edge that is appropriate for the food to be pro- cessed.

2.Place food in the prep bowl. Be sure the food is cut into small pieces, and the bowl is not overloaded.

3.Place the chopper/grinder cover on top of the prep bowl. Be sure the cover is properly seated.

4.Press the On/Off button on the hand blender.

5.Do not operate the chopper/grinder attachment for longer than 15 seconds at a time.

Note: Due to the powerful motor provided with this unit, Cuisinart recommends using one hand to support the chopper/grinder during operation.

6.When you have finished processing the food, stop the machine by taking your fingers off the On/Off button.

7.WHEN THE BLADE STOPS MOVING, remove the hand blender motor body from the chopper/grinder cover, and remove the cover from the chopper/grinder.

8.Carefully remove the blade assembly, holding it by the grip- ping ridges on the plastic sheath. NEVER TOUCH THE BLADE ITSELF.

9.Remove food with a spatula.

Note: Do not operate the chopper/grinder attachment without food contents in the prep bowl.
