PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION
Dough feels tough
after kneading
• Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces and redistribute evenly in
processing bowl. Process 10 seconds or until uniformly soft
and pliable.
Dough is too dry • While machine is running, add water through the small feed
chute, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough cleans the inside of
the processing bowl.
Dough is too wet • While machine is running, add flour through the small feed
chute, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough cleans the inside of
the processing bowl.
The motor does not
start
• There is a safety interlock switch to prevent the motor
from starting if it is not properly assembled. Make sure the
processing bowl and lid are securely locked into position.
• If you are slicing or shredding and the above solution does not
work, make sure that the food contents in the feed chute are
cut below the maximum fill line so that the activation rod can
engage the motor.
• Make sure the large food pusher is inserted in the feed chute
low enough to engage safety interlock switch. LCD screen will
read “Insert Pusher”.
• If the motor still will not start, check the power cord and
power outlet.
The food processor
shuts off during
operation
• The lid may have become unlocked; check to make sure it is
securely in position.
• If the motor overloads, the 'OVERLOAD' icon in the LCD will
start to flash. Switch off by pressing the POWER/OFF button
and unplug the power cord. Allow the food processor to cool
for 20-30 minutes before resuming.
The motor
slowed down
during operation
• This is normal as some heavier loads may require the motor
to work harder. Reposition the food in the feed chute and
continue processing.
• The maximum load capacity may have been exceeded.
Remove some of the ingredients and continue processing.
The food processor
vibrates/moves
during processing
• Make sure the rubber feet at the bottom of the unit are clean
and dry. Also make sure that the maximum load capacity is
not being exceeded.
• This is normal as some heavier loads may require the motor to
work harder.
