Your food processor motor operates on standard line operating current.
The appropriate voltage and frequency for your appliance are shown on
the bottom of the housing base.
This appliance is equipped with an automatic thermostat that will protect it
against overheating. In fact, if the processor runs for an exceptionally long
time or mixes or kneads a very thick dough or several successive batches,
the motor may overheat and it will stop automatically thanks to the internal
safety switch. If this happens, turn your machine off and wait for the motor to
cool before turning it on again. The motor will usually cool within 15 minutes.
In extreme cases, it could take up to an hour.
The work bowl cover has a second safety switch. In fact, the motor will only
turn on if the cover is locked into position and the large pusher is inserted
firmly. It is then impossible to remove the work bowl from the housing base.
In order to remove the work bowl, first lift the large pusher out.
During use, the motor will stop instantly if the large pusher is separated from
the cover.
The machine's pusher assembly has two parts:
• A large pusher for larger foods. It deactivates the motor's safety mechanism.
• A small pusher located within the large pusher. This pusher is designed for
longer vegetables (carrots, cucumbers, etc.), for continuously adding liquids
and small foods while the appliance is running.
4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A. Operating instructions for the chopping/mixing or dough blade
1. Place the work bowl over the motor shaft, with the handle facing you just
left of centre. Turn the work bowl counter-clockwise to lock into position.
2. Holding it by its central hub, carefully place one of the two blades on
the central shaft in the work bowl. Carefully align the blade hub with
the motor shaft. It should fit snugly and rest on the bottom of the work bowl.
3. Place the ingredients in the bowl.
4. Place the work bowl cover onto the work bowl by holding the cover
handle slightly to the left. Then turn it counter-clockwise to lock it into position.
5. Place the large pusher in the food opening, sliding its metal activation rod
in the cover's safety mechanism. The machine is now ready to be used.
The chopping/mixing blade allows you to chop, crush, grind, purée, and
blend such foods as:
• Fresh herbs
• Onions, garlic, shallots
• Spices
• Raw or cooked meat and fish
• Raw or cooked fruit and vegetables

• Bread dough
• Pizza dough
• Shortcrust pastry
• Sweet pie pastry
• Puff pastry
• Choux pastry
• Savarin dough

B. Operating instructions for the discs
1. Place the work bowl over the motor shaft, with the handle facing you and
sitting just left of centre. Turn the work bowl counter-clockwise to lock into
position.
2. Place the disc on a flat surface. Place the detachable stem into the mounting
plate on the disc. The 'lock' indicator located on the left of the part should
be left of the mounting plate on the disc.
3. Push the stem down and turn to the right, so the locking tabs are covered
by the metal supports. A 'click' indicates the stem is locked in place.
(To unlock the stem, slide the white button up and turn counter-clockwise).

4. Turn the disc over and place the stem on the motor shaft. It should fit
snugly and rest on the bottom of the work bowl.
5. Place the cover on the work bowl with the cover handle slightly to the left,
then turn it counter-clockwise to lock in place.
6. Place the large pusher into the feed tube, sliding its metal activation rod into
the cover's safety mechanism. The machine is now ready to be used.
The slicing/chopping discs (2mm and 4mm) cuts into strips or slices
(small feed tube) or cuts into large pieces (large feed tube). The following are
some examples of foods you can use these discs for:
• All sorts of uncooked vegetables
• All sorts of uncooked fruit

• Raw meat or fish (place the pieces in freezer to harden before
chopping)
