CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Keep your Cuisinart Elite Collection
Food Processor ready to use on the kitchen
counter. When not in use, leave it unplugged.
This food processor includes a storage case
with lock for safekeeping of blades and discs.
Keep the blades and discs out of the reach of
children.
All parts except the housing base are dishwasher
safe, and we recommend washing them in the
dishwasher on the top rack only. Due to intense
water heat, washing the work bowl, cover and
accessories on the bottom rack may cause
damage over time. Insert the cover with the feed
tube facing up to ensure proper cleaning. (Note:
The seal is removable for dishwashing or hand-
washing.) Insert the work bowl and pushers
upside down for drainage. Remember to unload
the dishwasher carefully wherever you place
sharp blades and discs.
To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, cover,
seal, pusher assembly and blade or disc
immediately after use so food won't dry on
them. Be sure to place the pushers upside
down for drainage. If food lodges in the pusher,
remove it by running water through it, or use a
bottle brush.
If further cleaning of the cover is necessary after
dishwashing or hand-washing, remove the seal
and run faucet water pressure directly through
the holes in the cover.
If you wash blades and discs by hand, do it
carefully. When handling, use the plastic hubs
on the blades and discs. Avoid leaving them in
soapy water where they may disappear from
sight. To clean the metal blade, fill the work
bowl with soapy water, hold the blade by its
plastic center and move it rapidly up and down
on the center shaft of the bowl. Use of a spray
attachment is also effective. If necessary, use a
brush.
The work bowls are made of durable plastic that
is shatter resistant and heat resistant. They
should not be placed in a microwave oven.
The housing base may be wiped clean with a
soapy, nonabrasive material. Be sure to dry
once clean.
Four rubber feet on the underside keep the base
from moving on most work surfaces when the
machine is processing heavy loads. If the feet
leave spots on the counter, spray them with a
spot remover and wipe with a damp sponge. If
any trace of the spot remains, repeat the
procedure and wipe the area with a damp
sponge and nonabrasive cleaning powder.
® 2.0 14-Cup
The Accessory Storage Case is made of a high-
impact plastic that has a smooth, easy-to-clean
surface. Occasionally, wipe your Accessory
Storage Case with a cloth or sponge that has
been dipped in warm, soapy water. To remove
stubborn spots, use a mild soap solution, then
wipe with a damp sponge. Do not put the
Accessory Storage Case in the dishwasher.
Blades, stem adapter and discs should always
be clean when they are put into the Accessory
Storage Case. The Accessory Storage Case is
not meant for temporary storage of soiled
blades between periods of use.
IMPORTANT: Never store any blade or disc on
the motor shaft. No blade or disc should be
placed on the shaft except when the processor
is about to be used.
MAINTENANCE: Any other servicing should be
performed by an authorized service
representative.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Like all powerful electrical appliances, a food
processor should be handled with care. Follow
these guidelines to protect yourself and your
family from misuse that could cause injury.
Handle and store metal blades and discs
carefully. Their cutting edges are very sharp.
Always place the stem adapter on the motor
shaft before assembling the discs.
Never put blades or discs on the motor shaft
until the work bowl is locked in place.
Always be sure that the blade or disc is down
on the motor shaft as far as it will go.
Always insert chopping blade and dough blade
in the work bowl before putting ingredients in
bowl.
When slicing or shredding food, always use the
pusher. Never put your fingers or spatula into
feed tube.
Always wait for the blade or disc to stop
spinning before you remove the pusher
assembly or cover from the work bowl.
Always unplug the unit before removing food,
cleaning, or putting on or taking off parts.
Always remove work bowl from base of machine
before you remove chopping blade or dough
blade.
