Helpful Hints
1. Be careful not to over-process food. Most foods require only
3 to 10 seconds.
2. Process up to 8 cups of food at a time.
3. If food is not chopping into even-sized pieces, remove some of
the food from the Processor Bowl and process smaller quantities
at a time.
4. Do not attempt to process extremely hard food which is difficult
to cut with a kitchen knife.
5. Remove bones, pits and hard shells before processing to avoid
damage to the unit.
6. This unit is not designed for processing liquids or foods with a
high liquid content.
7. Lift the Chopping Blade out before emptying the contents of the
8- Cup Processor Bowl.

Usage Guide
The three functions of your 8-Cup Food Processor allow you to chop,
shred or slice a wide variety of food quickly and effortlessly.
NOTE: Certain foods should not be chopped, shredded or sliced.
Avoid slicing raw meat. Attempting to chop ice or to grind coffee
beans will damage the Chopping Blade and 8-Cup Processor Bowl.
Very hard foods that can not be cut with an ordinary knife blade
should be avoided.
