The appliance must be protected by a 3A approved (BS1362) fuse.
Note:
For non-rewireable plugs the fuse cover MUST be refitted when replacing the
fuse. If the fuse cover is lost then the plug must not be used until a replacement
can be obtained. The correct fuse cover is identified by colour and a
replacement may be obtained from your Kenwood Authorised Repairer (see
Service).
If a non-rewireable plug is cut off it must be DESTROYED IMMEDIATELY. An
electric shock hazard may arise if an unwanted non-rewireable plug is
inadvertently inserted into a 13A socket outlet.

clockwise until the arrow on the lid aligns with the raised line on the body of the
processor .
F

from operating.
4 Switch on by moving the on/off lever to ‘I’ and process until the desired
c
onsistency is achieved OR use the pulse button to operate the tool fitted to the
bowl in a start/stop action. The pulse button operates the motor and keeps it
running for as long as the button is held down. This will allow you to control the
t

using the attachments
knife blade
This blade is the most versatile of all the attachments. The texture you get is
determined by the length of processing time. For coarser textures use the
‘pulse’ feature checking the consistency regularly.
what the knife blade can do.
Raw meat
Make ‘mince’ by trimming raw meat of any excess fat and cutting into 2cm/
3
4in
cubes, place into the bowl and operate for approximately 10 seconds or until
the desired texture is achieved. The longer you run the machine the smoother
the texture will be.
Cooked meat
Follow the method for raw meat but process for a shorter time.
Vegetables
Cut the vegetables into pieces approximately 2.5cm/1in in size. Process foods
having a similar texture together eg harder vegetables like carrots and potatoes
or softer ones like mushrooms, tomatoes or cooked vegetables.
Biscuit and breadcrumbs
Drop pieces down the feed tube whilst the machine is operating.
Shortcrust pastry and scones
Put the flour into the bowl. Use fat straight from the refrigerator and cut into
2cm/
3
4in cubes. Process until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs but take
care not to overprocess. Leave the machine running and add the liquid down
the feed tube. Process until one or two balls of pastry are formed. Chill before
use.
