Press the On button. For continuous operation, press the High but-
ton. Motor will start if you have followed assembly instructions. To
turn motor off, press the High button again or the Off button.
For on-off operation, called pulse-chopping or pulsing, press the On
button, press the Pulse button, and then press and release the High
button the desired number of times. Motor runs as long as you hold
the High button down. The motor stops when you release control
switch. Try it a few times.
You control the duration and frequency of pulses by the length of
time you hold the High button down and the rate at which you press
it. Allow enough time between pulses to let food in work bowl fall
to bottom.
Always use the High button for pulse/chopping. Never turn cover
back and forth to start and stop processor.
CHOPPING, PURÉEING AND MIXING
Refer to Food Processor Assembly instructions on page 9.
1. Remove cover and put food into work bowl. First, cut food into
3
⁄4"
pieces. You will get a more even chop if you start with pieces that
are all the same size. Put pieces into work bowl with metal blade
in place. You can put in up to 1 cup of food at a time.
If you want to process more, do it in batches.
2. Put on cover and lock it. Insert pusher. It is recommended that
one hand be placed on the food processor lid while in use, to
provide unit stability. Press the On button, press the Pulse
button, and the High button (to pulse), then release. Repeat two
to three times. Each time blade stops, let food pieces drop to the
bottom of bowl before pulsing again. This ensures that the blade
will chop them at every pulse. Watch what happens to the food.
With pulse/chopping technique, you can get an even chop without
danger of overprocessing. Check texture by looking through work
bowl. Be careful not to overprocess. For a coarse chop, pulse
only a few times.
3. If you want a finer chop or purée, press the On button and then
the High button and let machine run continuously until the food is
chopped as fine as you want it. Check frequently through clear
cover or bowl to avoid chopping too fine. Use a plastic spatula to
scrape down any pieces that stick to inside of bowl. Onions and
other food with a high water content turn into a smooth purée
very quickly. Do not overchop – look at food frequently through
work bowl.
To purée, follow same procedure as for chopping, but let machine
run until food is a smooth purée.
New users are often surprised at how fast the processor works. You
will quickly get used to its great speed.
These are some conditions that affect your results:
• Size of pieces you put in bowl – all should be about the
same size.
• Amount of food you process – don’t add too much.
• Type of processing you choose – continuous or pulse/chopping.
ADDING FOOD WHILE PROCESSING
To add liquid while the machine is running, pour it through open
feed tube. This is especially useful when making mayonnaise or
dressings.
A small hole in the pusher allows you to add liquids in a very slow,
steady stream – useful when making sauces.
When you want to add small pieces of food like cheese, meat or
garlic cloves while machine is running, drop them through open
feed tube.
To prevent spills when adding sugar and other dry ingredients,
use a funnel.
REMOVING PROCESSED FOOD
Before removing processed food, press Off button and wait for
blade to stop spinning. Then remove cover by turning it counter-
clockwise. Never try to remove cover and work bowl together; this
can damage work bowl.
