SAFETY
• Like any powerful electrical appliance, your
food processor should be handled with care.
These are some procedures that will protect
you and your family from misuse that could
cause injury.
• Handle metal blade and discs carefully. Their
cutting edges are very sharp.
• Never put blade or disc on motor shaft until
work bowl is securely locked in place.
• Always make certain that blade or disc is
down on motor shaft as far as it will go.
• Always insert metal blade in work bowl before
putting ingredients in work bowl.
• When slicing or shredding food, always use
pusher. Never put your fingers or a spatula
into feed tube.
• Always wait for blade or disc to stop spinning
before you remove cover from work bowl.
• Be careful not to let metal blade fall out of
work bowl when you empty bowl. Remove it
before tilting bowl, or hold it in place.
SOME TECHNICAL DATA
The line voltage and frequency appropriate for
your machine are shown on label on underside
of base.
A safety switch prevents machine from operat-
ing when work bowl or cover is not locked into
position. Motor stops within seconds when
control switch is turned off or cover is
unlocked.
An automatic temperature-controlled circuit
breaker in the motor ensures protection against
motor burnout. If processor runs for exception-
ally long time when chopping, mixing or knead-
ing thick or heavy mixtures in successive
batches, motor may overheat. If this happens,
processor will stop. Turn it off and wait for
motor to cool off before proceeding. It will usu-
ally cool off within 10 minutes. In extreme
cases, it could take an hour.
If it does not start or stop, please call our
Customer Service Department toll free at 800-
726-0190.

lock it into place. Coil power cord and
secure it with rubber band or twist tie.

tioning it so short side with cavity for work
