Safety Interlocks
WARNING: Do not attempt to damage or by-pass the safety interlocks!
Your new Design Food Processor Pro is equipped with various safety features for your protec-
tion.
• Safety interlocks switch OFF the motor, if the bowl or the lid is not assembled and locked
correctly, to avoid injuries due to the cutting blades and other moving parts.
• The automatic brake stops the motor almost immediately, as soon as the appliance is swit-
ched OFF.
• The appliance is provided with a safety thermal cut-out device and will shut off, when over-
loaded. If the appliance suddenly stops during operation, immediately switch OFF (indicator
goes out) and unplug. Then wait for about 15 minutes to let the motor cool down. Thereafter,
you can operate the appliance quite as usual. (See: „Operation“) However, to avoid that
overheating occurs again, you should repeatedly make brakes during working—depending
on the load (e.g. for kneading heavy dough).
• The motor base is mounted on rubber legs, ensuring a stable, non-slip stand on smooth
surfaces (e.g. glass, metal, painted surfaces).
• For storage you can place the cutting tools in the bowl and in a drawer in the motor base,
thus avoiding injuries. Additionally, this way the tools are always at hand.
(See: „Storage“)
Modes of operation
The appliance can be operated in two operating modes: continuously and pulse.
• Press the ON/OFF button for continuous operation.
An indicator in the ON/OFF button is illuminated, if the appliance is switched on. If the
indicator is illuminated but the motor does not work, first press the ON/OFF button to switch
OFF the appliance (indicator goes out), then check, if you assembled the appliance comple-
tely and correctly. (See: Operation) Thereafter try again.
• Alternatively, you can operate the motor in short pulses using the PULSE button for a better
control of the consistency of your food.
This function is most useful, when using the chopping blades for mincing and puréeing,
or for beating and mixing using the emulsifying disc. Even when using a cutting disc, you
should prefer this operating mode for better results.
Operating with the normal processing bowl
WARNING: Always turn the appliance ´OFF`, wait until the motor stops and unplug the
appliance before assembling/disassembling. Always completely assemble your appliance
before you plug the plug into the power outlet and ensure no foreign substance is in the
feed chute. Only touch the discs on the edge and blades by its central plastic section and
handle with care when cleaning.
