Functions
OPERATION
Getting started
The food processor will only operate when
the processing bowl, lid and large pusher are
correctly assembled. This engages the safety
interlock, and allows the motor to run.
The chute has a CHUTE FILL MAX graphic to
indicate the maximum volume of food that can
be placed in the chute for the pusher to activate
the safety locking catch.
Control buttons
The POWER button illuminates red when the
machine is connected to power and is ready
to run.
The START|PAUSE button allows the motor
to run continuously until pressed again. If the
lid, bowl or large pusher are removed while
the motor is running, the button will flash. The
motor will resume running when the bowl, lid
and large pusher are assembled and the safety
interlock is engaged, the button light will be
solid (no longer flashing).
The momentary PULSE button is ideal for
processing foods that need sudden bursts of
power. It also encourages ingredients to move
around the bowl. PULSE is also best when
processing foods that only require processing
for a short period of time.
Use a combination of the START|PAUSE and
PULSE buttons for control when
processing food.
Timer
If the timer isn't set, the food processor
timer counts up in seconds. When using
the timer this way, the processor will stop after
10 minutes (9:59), or you can cancel
it manually.

The alternative to running in count-up mode is
to use the arrow buttons to set the timer before
starting.
The count-down timer can be used for any
recipe that specifies the length of time
ingredients should be processed.
To set the count-down timer, press the up or
down arrows until the desired processing time
is displayed on the LCD screen.
When the timer has finished counting down
the food processor will automatically stop.
After Processing
After processing, wait until the blades/discs
have stopped moving before unlocking the lid.
To ensure safe handling, turn off at the POWER
button and unplug at the power outlet before
handling the blades.
When removing blades/discs, lift the part
by carefully gripping the plastic hub in
the center.
Overload Protection System
The food processor has an overload protection
system to prevent damage to the motor.
If activated, the food processor will go into
STANDBY mode, and the 'OVERLOAD' icon
on the LCD will flash.
Unplug and allow to cool for 30 minutes.
Once cooled, you will be able to use the food
processor as usual again.
Note that some stiff mixtures (such as bread
dough) may cause the blade to rotate more
slowly than normal. If this happens, do not
process for more than 1 minute.
If the blades or discs jam with food while
processing, immediately stop the machine,
then unplug from the power outlet before
clearing the wedged food. If this happens more
than once, the bowl may be overloaded.
Try processing in smaller batches.
