Properties of the Design Food Processor S
Your new Food Processor processes your food in only a few seconds. For most purposes the-
re is no need to continuously operate the appliance for more than a few minutes. Even heavy
dough (e.g. yeast dough) is processed in 2 or 3 minutes (at the maximum). Also when using
a cutting blade and adding your food via the feed tube, you should switch off the motor for
filling the feed tube anew. This way you get better results. Additionally, you should not press
too violently on the pusher, when processing your food. See: Safety interlocks
If you wish to process your food for a elongated time (e.g. mixing dough using the universal
‘s’ blade), always make brakes in between times, switching the motor OFF to avoid overhe-
ating.
The appliance is NOT suited for grinding very hard parts of foods (e.g. stones, woody
shells, bones).
The appliance is delivered with a lot of useful tools. Only use the designated tools for the
various tasks to avoid damage. (See: „Selecting the Appropriate Tools“)
Safety interlocks
WARNING: Do not attempt to damage or by-pass the safety interlocks!
Your new Design Food Processor Pro is equipped with various safety features for your protec-
tion.
• Safety interlocks switch OFF the motor, if the bowl or the lid is not assembled and locked
correctly, to avoid injuries due to the cutting blades and other moving parts.
• The automatic brake stops the motor almost immediately, as soon as the appliance is swit-
ched OFF.
• The appliance is provided with a safety thermal cut-out device and will shut off, when over-
loaded. If the appliance suddenly stops during operation, immediately switch OFF (indicator
goes out) and unplug. Then wait for about 15 minutes to let the motor cool down. Thereafter,
you can operate the appliance quite as usual. (See: „Operation“) However, to avoid that
overheating occurs again, you should repeatedly make brakes during working—depending
on the load (e.g. for kneading heavy dough).
• The motor base is mounted on rubber legs, ensuring a stable, non-slip stand on smooth
surfaces (e.g. glass, metal, painted surfaces).
• For storage you can place the cutting tools in the bowl and in a drawer in the motor base,
thus avoiding injuries. Additionally, this way the tools are always at hand.
(See: „Storage“)
Modes of operation
The appliance can be operated in two operating modes: continuously and pulse.
• Press the ON/OFF button for continuous operation.
An indicator in the ON/OFF button is illuminated, if the appliance is switched on. If the
indicator is illuminated but the motor does not work, first press the ON/OFF button to switch
OFF the appliance (indicator goes out), then check, if you assembled the appliance comple-
tely and correctly. (See: Operation) Thereafter try again. (See also: „Solving Problems“)
