C. Puréeing/Blending
• Set up your chosen bowl and the appropriate mixing/chopping blade.
• Ingredients should be cut into 2.5cm pieces; a smooth purée is best achieved when all the pieces
are of equal size.
• Pulse to initially chop and then process 'HIGH' or 'LOW' until food is puréed/blended; scrape the
work bowl as necessary.
N.B. Do not use this method to purée cooked white potatoes. They develop a gluey texture when
processed with the metal blade.
• Purée solid ingredients and add any liquids slowly via the feed tube as required.
D. Slicing
• Use the slicing discs for perfect 2mm or 4mm slices.
• Set up your chosen slicing disc with the large work bowl and fi t the work bowl cover.
• Turn the machine onto 'HIGH' .
• Ensure the pusher accessory is removed, then place the food into the feed tube. For best results,
always pack food evenly into the tube. Ingredients should fi t snugly, but not so tightly that it prevents
the pusher accessory from moving.
• Using the pusher accessory, slowly push the food down the feed tube until it makes contact with
the disc and is sliced.
N.B. The position of the food in the feed tube will determine the shape and size of the slices. For
example, if you insert a whole carrot vertically you will get round slices. To change the shape and size
of the slices change the position of the food in the feed tube.
The type/texture of the food will dictate the amount of pressure required. Use light pressure for soft
foods, medium pressure for medium foods, and fi rm pressure for harder foods. Always process with
even pressure.
WARNING: Never put fi ngers into the feed tube; always use the pusher accessory provided. If food
becomes stuck, turn the machine off , unplug from the main electric supply and dismantle the
processor. Do not attempt to remove food whilst the disc is in operation.

• Use the grating/shredding discs for fi ne or medium shredding/grating.
• Set up your chosen grating/shredding disc with the large work bowl and fi t the work bowl cover.
