Ensure that your Food Processor is unplugged from the electrical outlet
before cleaning.
Wipe the Base and Cord with a warm soapy cloth and wipe clean with
a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use any abrasive cleaners or
scouring pads on the housing as this will damage the finish. Wash the
Processing Bowl, Cover and all attachments (except Motor Base) in
warm water using a mild detergent (or see dishwasher instructions
below). Dry each part thoroughly before use.
Warning! Care must be taken when handling the metal blades as these
items are extremely sharp.
Dishwasher Use
All plastic components deteriorate through the prolonged use of a
dishwasher for cleaning. However all parts of your Food Processor are
tolerant to dishwasher use, (excluding the processor body). If using the
dishwasher place parts only on the top rack.

Helpful Hints

• The most important factor for successful slicing and shredding is the
way in which the food is packed into the Feed Tube. To prepare shorter
slices, pack the food items vertically in the feed tube, see figure 19. To
prepare longer slices, pack food items horizontally in the Feed Tube,
see figure 20.

• For best results when slicing, the Feed Tube should always be
packed firmly to allow each piece of food to support the others.
There will always be a small portion of food left unprocessed
between the Food Pusher and the Blade. When using the Slicing
Disc, excessive force will cause food to be sliced unevenly. Only
slight pressure is needed from the food pusher when using
this attachment.
• For best results when shredding and grating remember that
softer foods such as cheese (cheddar, mozzarella or swiss) should
be well chilled (not frozen) before processing. Harder foods such as
Parmesan or Romano cheese should be at room temperature before
processing. Never attempt to shred or grate cheese that cannot be
pierced with a fork or a knife tip.
