ADDING INGREDIENTS
When various recipes require dry ingredients such as flour, add them directly into the
bowl before processing. There is no need to sift ingredients when using your food
processor. Liquid ingredients may be added while the processor is operating
by pouring through the feed tube in the processor cover.
NOTE:
When processing sauces or
semi-liquid ingredients, stop the food processor and scrape down the container sides with
the spatula provided.
USING THE FEED TUBE
For best results when slicing, the feed tube should always be packed firmly to allow each
piece of food to support the others. The most important factor for successful slicing and
shredding is the way in which the food is packed into the feed tube.
NOTE: Never use
fingers to push food down the feed tube. Always use the food pusher.
There will always be
a small portion of food left unprocessed between the food pusher and the blade. When
preparing longer slices, pack food items horizontally.
EMULSIFYING EGG WHITES
Use the E-disc and a minimum of two/three egg whites for best results.
PREPARING SHORTER SLICES
Pack the food items vertically in the feed tube, for best results when shredding and grating.
Remember that softer foods such as cheese (cheddar, mozzarella or Swiss) should be well
chilled before processing. Harder foods such as Parmesan or Romano cheese should be at
room temperature before processing.
NOTE:
When grating Parmesan cheese do not apply a
lot of pressure to the food pusher.
LIQUIDS
To maximise the capacity of the largest bowl when making soups use the Auto Pulse
feature rather than START/STOP button when processing. To start, add the food chunks
and use Auto Pulse, gradually adding the liquid through the feed tube. If mixture overflows or
fails to blend, stop processing, remove some of the ingredients and process in smaller
amounts.
DISASSEMBLY
When processing is completed. Turn off and dismantle the processor, clean and dry all parts.
Store the bowls, medium blade and lid with food pusher assembled on the processor body.
Do not lock the bowl lid whilst in storage. This can damage the safety mechanism built into
the bowl.
NOTE:
Always wait for the processing blade to stop moving completely before
removing the lid. )&#&!* .+) % ,+#'&*$ *) *")($-/*

PROCESSING TIPS
WHEN RUNNING THE PROCESSOR
Do not run for more than 45 seconds at a time. Allow the processor to cool to room
temperature if you go over the max run time.
USING THE BOWLS
Always try and start with the tasks that require the smallest bowl first, so that you are
removing the used bowls instead of putting clean bowls inside dirty ones. To insert the
small bowl the groove must align with the pip on the m edium bowl.
AUTO PULSE
Use this feature to achieve greater control for delicate foods or for a more even chop. The
Auto Pulse feature is perfect for mixing in foods without puréeing the mixture. It also
allows you to prepare ingredients for frying or casseroles gently whilst preserving their
integrity. When selected the power light flashes, Press again to stop (or press PULSE) If you
press START/STOP you will move to constant processing.
CHOPPING
TIP: Use Auto Pulse for this process.
Try to process pieces of food that are approximately equal in size. When you break, cut or
tear food into uniform pieces before you begin processing, the finished results will be more
uniform. More consistent processing results are achieved if the bowl is not overloaded.
MINCING
Pre-cut meat into cubes approximately 2cm square and use the chopping blade.
VEGETABLES
When processing vegetables such as onions, peel and quarter or cut large vegetables into
smaller evenly sized chunks.
MIXING
TIP: We recommend using Auto Pulse when adding hole ingredients to a mixture e.g.
sultanas into a scone mix.
The quantities that can be processed within the processing bowls will vary with the density
of the mixture.
WHEN SLICING, SHREDDING AND GRATING
Cut all ingredients to a size that fits comfortably into the feed tube. Pack the feed tube and,
while holding food steady and upright with the food pusher, press down evenly until all
ingredients are sliced or shredded. The more firmly you push, the thicker the slices or
shreds.
Do not use excessive force
or you may damage the food processor.
