non-abrasive cleanser.

then place Chopping/Mixing Blade

Troubleshooting Guide
Before calling the Hamilton Beach/Proctor Silex, Inc. Customer Service Number,
carefully check the list below for a possible solution to your question.
POTENTIAL PROBLEM
Unit does not operate
on any speed or Pulse.
Food is not sliced or
shredded uniformly.
Unit stops and will
not come back on.
Unit has a burning smell.
PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
• Are the Bowl and Lid locked in place?
See “Using Your Food Processor.”
• Packing too much food into food chute, or pushing
too hard on food pusher may cause the processed
food to be irregularly sliced or shredded.
• Are the bowl, bowl lid, and food chute lid all
locked in place? They may have moved slighty
during processing. See “Using Your Food
Processor.”
• Is the outlet working? Check it by plugging in a
working lamp or other appliance. You may have
overloaded the circuit and blown a fuse or tripped
the circuit breaker.
If none of these suggestions correct the problem,
DO NOT attempt to repair the unit. Call Hamilton
Beach/Proctor-Silex Customer Service.
• There may be a residue left on the motor from
the manufacturing process, causing a slight odor
during initial use. This will go away. If a strong
odor or any visible smoke appears, unplug the
unit IMMEDIATELY and call the Hamilton Beach/
Proctor-Silex Customer Service number.
