SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not immerse base,
motor, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance used by or
near children.
4. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep fingers out of discharge
opening.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug
or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged
in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair or electrical or mechanical
adjustment.

Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

surfaces.
10. Never feed food into food chute by hand when slicing or shred-
ding food. Always use food pusher.
11. The blades and discs are sharp. Handle carefully. Store out of
reach of children.
12. Make sure the blade or disc has come to a full stop before
removing cover.
13. Keep hands and utensils away from moving blades and discs
while processing food to reduce the risk of severe personal
injury and/or damage to the food processor. A rubber scraper
may be used but ONLY when the food processor is not running.
14. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade or discs on
base without first putting bowl properly in place.

This appliance is intended for household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug
has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical
outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce
the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into
the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not
attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modi-
fying the plug in any way.
NOTE: This unit is not recommended for processing meat or
cheeses.
