to use your food processor
1 Fit the bowl. Place the handle towards the back and turn
clockwise until it locks .
2 Then fit the detachable shaft over the power unit fixed shaft .
3 Fit an attachment over the drive shaft.
Always fit the bowl and attachment onto the machine before
adding ingredients.
4 Fit the lid - ensuring the top of the drive shaft locates into the
centre of the lid.
Do not use the lid to operate the processor, always
use the on/off control.
5 Plug in and the power on light will come on. Press the “I” button
to switch on.
The processor won’t work if the bowl and lid are
fitted incorrectly.
Use the pulse control for short bursts. The pulse will operate for
as long as the button is held down.
6 Reverse the above procedure to remove the lid, attachments and
bowl.
Always switch off “0” before removing the lid.
Do not operate the processor continuously for more
than 10 minutes without a rest period - or the motor
may cut out.
The motor will automatically cut out if the machine is
overloaded or run for too long. If this occurs press
the “0” off button and allow the machine to cool
down for approximately 30 minutes. Once the motor
has cooled sufficiently it will operate normally again.
important
Your processor is not suitable for crushing or grinding coffee
beans, or converting granulated sugar to caster sugar.
When adding almond essence or flavouring to mixtures avoid
contact with the plastic as this may result in permanent marking.

using the attachments
knife blade/dough tool
The knife blade is the most versatile of all
the attachments. The length of the
processing time will determine the texture
achieved. For coarser textures use the
pulse control.
Use the knife blade for cake and pastry
making, chopping raw and cooked meat,
vegetables, nuts, pate, dips, pureeing
soups and to also make crumbs from
biscuits and bread. It can also be used
for yeasted dough mixes if the dough
tool is not supplied.
Use the dough tool for yeasted mixes.
hints
knife blade
Cut food such as meat, bread, vegetables into cubes
approximately 2cm/
3
4in before processing.
Biscuits should be broken into pieces and added down the feed
tube whilst the machine is running.
When making pastry use fat straight from the fridge cut into
2cm/
3
4
in.cubes.
Take care not to over-process.
dough tool
Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and add the liquid down the
feed tube whilst the machine is running. Process until a smooth
elastic ball of dough is formed this will take 45 - 60 secs.
Re-knead by hand only. Re-kneading in the bowl is not
recommended as it may cause the processor to become
unstable.
twin beater geared whisk
Use for light mixtures only eg egg whites,
cream, evaporated milk and for whisking
eggs and sugar for fatless sponges.
Heavier mixtures such as fat and flour will
damage it.
using the whisk
1 Fit the drive shaft and bowl onto the
power unit.
2 Push each beater securely into the drive
head .
3 Fit the whisk by carefully turning until it
drops over the drive shaft.
4 Add the ingredients.
5 Fit the lid - ensuring the end of the shaft locates into the centre
of the lid.
6 Switch on.
important
The whisk is not suitable for making one-stage cakes or
creaming fat and sugar as these mixes will damage it. Always
use the knife blade for cake making.
hints
Best results are obtained when the eggs are at room
temperature.
Ensure the bowl and whisks are clean and free from grease
before whisking.
maxi-blend canopy
When blending liquids, use the maxi-
blend canopy with the knife blade. It
allows you to increase the liquid
processing capacity from 1 litre to 1.5
litres, prevents leaking and improves the
chopping performance of the blade.
1 Fit the drive shaft and bowl onto the
power unit.
2 Fit the knife blade.
3 Add ingredients to be processed.
4 Fit the canopy over the top of the blade
ensuring it sits on the ledge inside the bowl
. Do not push down on the canopy, hold by the
centre grip.
5 Fit the lid and switch on.
