3. USING THE FOOD PROCESSOR
The food-processor touch-pad control provides the ideal speed for using
the machine as a domestic food processor. You can also use the SEQ
touch-pad control with this feature.
Press the 1 touch-pad control. For a continuous operation, press
the food-processor touch-pad control. To stop the machine, press
the food-processor touch-pad control again, or press 0.
To activate the SEQ feature, press the 1 touch-pad control, then
the SEQ touch-pad control, then press and release the food-processor
touch-pad control as many times as necessary. By using the appliance in
this way, it is easy to control the duration and frequency of the
pulses. Leave enough time in between pulses to allow the food to fall to
the bottom of the bowl.
A. CHOPPING AND PRODUCING PUREES
1. Cut the food into pieces of a similar size, then place into the bowl. You
can put up to 250 g of food into the food processor at the same time.
2. Place the lid and lock in place. Insert the pusher. We recommend that
you hold the food processor with one hand while it is operating. Press
the 1 touch-pad control, then the SEQ touch-pad control. Press and
release the food-processor touch-pad control two or three times. Each
time you release the button, allow the food to fall to the bottom of the
bowl before pressing the button again. Check the texture by looking
through the bowl. Ensure you do not chop too finely
Note : From time to time, a piece of food may become wedged between
the blade and the bowl. In this case, remove the lid, carefully lift out the
blade and remove the wedged piece. Empty the bowl, re-insert the blade
and the food, lock the lid into position, and continue the operation.
3. If you want finer chopped vegetables or minced meat, or a
finer purée, press the 1 touch-pad control, then the food-processor
touch-pad control and allow the machine to operate uninterrupted
until the foodstuffs have been chopped as fine as desired.
Make frequent checks through the bowl to avoid the food being
chopped too finely. If necessary, use a spatula to scrape all the pieces
remaining stuck to the inside of the bowl.
To purée foodstuffs, follow the same procedure as that used for chopping,
but allow the machine to continue operating until you have obtained a
homogeneous purée. Caution! Some foods (potatoes for example) may
produce a gluey texture if processed for too long.

B. ADDING MORE FOOD WHILE THE MACHINE IS IN OPERATION
There is a hole in the pusher which allows you to add liquid
ingredients slowly and evenly. If you wish to add some liquid
while the machine is running, pour it through this hole. This step is
particularly useful when you are making mayonnaise or sauces.
To add foodstuffs which are small in size or cut into pieces, like cheese,
meat or cloves of garlic, add them through the feedtube opening. Ensure
you replace the pusher immediately after adding the ingredients, to avoid
any risk of splashes or injury.
C. REMOVING FOOD FROM THE FOOD PROCESSOR
Before anything else, press the 0 touch-pad control and wait until
the blade stops turning. Then remove the lid by rotating it in an
anticlockwise direction. Never attempt to remove the lid and bowl
together; you risk damaging the bowl.
When you empty the bowl, ensure that the blade does not fall out to avoid
any risk of injury.
D. SLICING AND GRATING
1. Fit the grater/slicer disc into the food processor. Always handle
the disc by the rim. Close the lid and insert the food through the
feedtube.
2. Insert the pusher. Press the I touch-pad control then the food processor
touch-pad control. Push the food to the bottom, exerting light
pressure. You can remove the pusher to add more food without
switching off the appliance. However, ensure that you never put your
fingers in the feedtube.
After having sliced or grated all the foodstuffs, press the
food-procesor or 0 touch-pad controls. Wait until the disc
stops turning before removing the lid. Then remove the disc
by lifting it up. Now remove the bowl and pour out the food.
4. CLEANING AND STORAGE OF THE ATTACHMENTS
Store the blade and slicer/grater disc out of reach of children.
All the attachments can be washed in a dishwasher, except the
food-processor base unit, which must not be immersed in water. Wipe it
with a damp cloth.
If you clean the blade(s) and discs by hand, be very careful. Avoid letting
them soak in soapy water, where they could disappear from view.
