Here are two ways to prevent it from falling out:

1.Before tilting bowl, use spatula to remove food from around blade. Carefully remove blade by the plastic hub.

2.Hold top of blade in place with finger or spatula while pouring out processed food.

At this point, you may either lift the work bowl off motor base or hold the collar at the base and turn the handle of the bowl counterclockwise and lift blade straight up.

Your SmartPower Duet® Blender/Food Processor makes many everyday food preparation tasks much easier and faster. Follow these guidelines to get best results when using metal blade with food you prepare most often.

NOTE: Occasionally, a piece of food may become wedged between the blade and the work bowl. If this happens, remove the cover, lift the blade out carefully and remove the wedged piece. Empty the bowl, reinsert the blade and lock the cover into place. Process smaller amounts of the food at

one time.

USING THE FOOD PROCESSOR TO SLICE AND SHRED

1.Assemble clear work bowl on collar and base in the usual way. (See page 10.)

2.Pick up adapter stem. Hold stem by side that has the octagon shape (eight sided) and push rounded side down as far as it will go on motor shaft.

3.Place the reversible slicing/shredding disc with the desired cutting edge facing up onto the adapter stem. Always handle slicing/ shredding disc by the rim. Never touch sharp cutting blades.

4.Put cover on work bowl, lock it into place by twisting it clockwise and insert food in feed tube.

5.Insert pusher. Use moderate pressure to push down on pusher with one hand while using your other hand to push the On button, Pulse button, and hold down the Food Processor button. Slicing and shredding only take a few seconds.

Wait until disc stops spinning before removing cover. When it stops, remove cover before removing work bowl. Never try to remove cover and work bowl together; this could damage work bowl.

6.Remove slicing/shredding disc before removing work bowl. To remove it, grasp flat top section of adapter stem and lift it straight up.

Holding work bowl collar, turn work bowl counterclockwise and lift it straight up to remove it from base.

RECIPE TIPS

You’ll find many easy ways to prepare savory, healthful meals with your Cuisinart® SmartPower Duet® Blender/Food Processor. The simple recipes that follow include some old Cuisinart favorites as well as some creative combinations that are sure to please your friends and family. Thanks to the superior ice crushing power of the SmartPower Duet® Blender/Food Processor, you’ll also be able to make delicious frozen drinks.

Chopping Nuts

Pulse ½ cup of nuts (shells removed) on Chop 4 to 5 times. Turn blender off; scrape blender jar with spatula. Turn blender on and pulse on Chop 2 to 3 times. Turn blender off. Pulse fewer times for more coarsely chopped results. For best results, process no more than 1 cup at a time.

Bread, Cookie or Cracker Crumbs

For best results, use day-old bread (drier bread works best). Break bread slices into ½" pieces, and process no more than 1 cup of pieces at a time on Mix for 5 to 10 seconds. Crackers and cookies should also be broken into ½" pieces; process 1 cup at a time on Mix for 10 to 15 seconds. Turn blender off.

Crushing Ice (Blender jar only)

Add up to 10 large ice cubes to blender jar. Press the Ice Crush button, using short bursts, 10 times or until cubes are the consistency of snow. Turn blender off. Pulse fewer times if coarsely chopped ice is desired.

Grating Citrus Zest

For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly must be clean and dry. Remove zest from fruit in strips (using vegetable peeler). Use no more than 8 strips at a time (zest of one medium lemon). Cut strips in half. Add strips and 1 teaspoon sugar (from recipe) to the blender jar.

Blend on Food Processor speed for 15 to 20 seconds. Turn blender off.

Grinding Hard Cheese

Cut cheese into ½" pieces. Blend on Food Processor speed for 30 seconds. Turn blender off. For best results, grind no more than 3 ounces of cheese at a time.
