THIS UNIT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.  
USE FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN INTENDED WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.  
1. Read all instructions.  
11. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.  
2. To protect against risk of electrical  
shock, do not put base, cord, or plug  
in water or other liquid.  
3. Close supervision is necessary when  
any appliance is used by or near  
children.  
4. Turn unit off and unplug from outlet  
when not in use, before putting on or  
taking off parts, and before cleaning.  
To disconnect, turn unit off, grasp  
plug, and pull from wall outlet.  
Never pull on cord.  
5. Avoid coming in contact with  
moving parts.  
6. Do not operate appliance with  
damaged cord or plug or after the

tripping over a longer cord. If more  
length is needed, use an Underwriters  
Laboratories (UL)-Listed, NOM, or  
appropriate agency-approved extension  
cord rated no less than 15-amperes and

soapy water. Rinse them dry. These parts  
can also be placed in the dishwasher.  
Be sure to read this Use & Care  
Manual, paying special attention to  
the sections on “Using Your Food  
Processor” and “Care and Cleaning”  
to learn the correct methods for taking  
the unit apart and cleaning.

similarly qualified person in order  
to avoid a hazard.  
POLARIZED PLUG  
(120V Models Only)  
8. Do not use outdoors.  
This appliance has a polarized plug-one  
blade is wider than the other. As a safety  
feature, this plug will fit into a polarized  
outlet only one way. If the plug does not  
fit fully into the outlet, reverse it and try  
again. If it still does not fit, contact an  
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat the  
purpose of this safety feature.  
9. Do not let cord hang over edge  
of table or counter or touch  
hot surfaces.  
10. Keep hands and utensils away from  
moving Blades or Discs while processing  
food to reduce the risk of severe  
injury to persons or damage to the  
Food Processor. A scraper may be  
used but must be used only when the

How To Chop  
Bread Making Tips for the Dough Blade  
The Chopping Blade speeds up many everyday tasks and is designed to chop,  
crumb, grind, mince and mix quickly.  
1. For best results, use ingredients at room temperature and be sure the butter is soft.  
2. Check the date on the yeast package to be sure it hasnt expired. Measure flour  
accurately by spooning it into a measuring cup designed for dry ingredients and  
level it off. Do not pack flour by tapping the cup when measuring.  
3. Use the amount of liquid and flour in the bread recipe provided as a guide. You  
can experiment with other favorite yeast bread recipes.  
1. Place the Bowl over the center post in the Base with the Handle at the left. Turn  
the Bowl towards the right until it drops down into place. Snap the Bowl in so that  
the Handle lines up straight over the Signal Light; be sure it locks into place (A).  
2. Grasp the Chopping Blade by its center shaft and slide it down onto the center  
post. (C)  
4. You may use bread flour, if youd prefer. Breads will be taller.  
3. Place the Cover onto the Bowl so that the Food Chute is just to the right of the  
Bowl Handle. Twist the Food Chute/Cover toward LOCK until you hear it click  
into place (B).  
4. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. Use the Food  
Guide to help you Prepare food for chopping/  
mincing/mixing and crumbing.  
Food Processing Tips/Liquids  
Hot liquids (not boiling) and hot foods can be processed in the Bowl.  
(C)  
Be sure to process small amounts of liquids2 cups or less at a time. Larger amounts  
may leak from the Bowl.  
5. Press Pulse (or ON for continuous operation).  
When pulsing, hold the Pulse button down for about  
2-3 seconds: check results; repeat for desired consistency.  
It is better to use several short bursts rather than a  
single long one unless mixing ingredients that require  
longer processing times.  
6. After processing food, release the Pulse, or if you  
were using continuous ON, press OFF. Allow the Disc  
to stop rotating. Twist the Food Chute/Cover toward  
UNLOCK to remove the Cover.  
Care & Cleaning  
NOTE: Do not attempt to sharpen the cutting edges of the Chopping Blade or the  
slice or shred Disc. They are permanently sharpened at the factory and will be  
ruined by attempting to sharpen.  
1. Before cleaning, be sure the unit is off and the cord is unplugged.  
2. Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy clean-up.  
3. Wipe the Base, Control area, and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.  
Stubborn spots can be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild,  
non-abrasive cleanser. Do not immerse the Base in liquid.  
4. All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher, top rack.  
If washing by hand, wash in hot, sudsy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. If  
necessary, use a small nylon bristle brush to thoroughly clean the Bowl and  
Food Chute/Cover. This type of brush will also help prevent cutting yourself  
on the Chopping Blade and Slice and Shred Discs.  
If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on the top rack only not in  
or near the utensil basket.  
5. Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.  
7. Grasp the Chopping Blade by its shaft and remove.  
Unlock the Bowl by turning the Handle to the left, and  
Lift the Bowl off. Empty the processed food.  
How to Use the Dough Blade  
IMPORTANT: Follow the instructions under How to Chopto install and remove  
the Dough Blade. Refer to the Usage note under Using Your Food Processorto  
properly operate the unit with the Dough Blades in place.  
1. The Dough Blade can be used to make yeast breads, pizza dough, or yeast rolls.  
Use the 2 dough recipes in the manual as a guide when making bread or pizza  
dough. Be sure to add liquid ingredients slowly as the dough will not form  
properly if liquid is added too fast.  
6. Do not fill the Bowl with boiling water or place any of the parts in boiling water.  
Some foods, such as carrots, may temporarily stain the Bowl. To remove stains,  
make a paste of 1 tablespoon baking soda and two tablespoons warm water. Apply  
the paste to the stains and rub with a cloth. Rinse in sudsy water and dry.  
2. You may have to stop the unit at times to scrape down this side of the processing Bowl.  
3. DO NOT use the Dough Blade to make pie crust dough. Use the Chopping Blade  
for pie crust dough (see recipes).
