Hints & Tips
The metal blade (23) can be used for chopping meat, fish, vegetables, cheese, etc. setting
the speed to maximum.
For finer chopping, increase the length of time you process.
For coarser chopping, use the pulse button for a few seconds and monitor food texture.
Pre-cut larger pieces to make them fit into the feed tube. When chopping hard foods (e.g.
meat, cheese) cut into 1 “/2.4 cm cubes.
For shredding, place food horizontally into the feed tube, for slicing place the food
vertically.
When blending, pour the liquids in first and then add the solid food. Begin blending at the
lower speed and increase when needed.

RE-SETTABLE THERMAL SAFETY DEVICE
Your Euro-Pro Food Processing Center has been designed with a unique safety system which
prevents damage to the unit’s motor and drive system, should you inadvertently overload your
appliance. The safety system will automatically cut the electric power to the appliance when the
device senses an overload or excessive temperature in the motor or drive system. Should this
occur during use and the appliance stops functioning, follow the re-setting procedure below:
1. Turn the “ON/OFF” speed control (4) to the “OFF” position
2. Unplug the unit from the wall receptacle.
3. Remove and empty either the blender flask or processor bowl (whichever is being used).
Ensure that no food is jamming the cutting blades or attachments.
4. Allow the appliance to cool down for a minimum of 30 minutes.
5. Re-install the processor bowl or blender flask and re-plug appliance in the wall outlet.
6. Proceed to use the appliance as before. Should the appliance still fail to operate, turn the
“ON/OFF” speed control (4) to the “OFF” position and unplug from the wall outlet. Allow
the appliance to cool down for an additional 1 to 2 hours. After this time has passed,
repeat the restart procedure, steps 5 and 6 above.
