Do not use the continuous feed chute feature to slice meats or cheeses or when shredding root vegetables (carrots, potatoes, etc.). As with most continuous feed processors, shredded moist vegetables may clog in the chute. It is best to shred these vegetables into the food processor bowl. Slicing these root vegetables while using the continu- ous feed chute will not present a problem.
