FOR YOUR SAFETY Like all powerful electrical appliances, a Premier Series 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 discs on flat stable surface before connecting detachable stem. 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 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. Be careful to prevent the chopping blade from falling out of the work bowl when emptying the bowl. Remove it before tilting bowl, or hold it in place with your finger, a spatula or a spoon. TECHNICAL DATA The motor in your food processor operates on standard line operating current. The appropriate voltage and frequency for your machine are shown on the lower housing under the base. An automatic, temperature-controlled circuit breaker in the motor ensures complete protection against motor burnout. If the processor runs for an exceptionally long time when chopping, mixing or kneading a thick or heavy mixture in successive batches, the motor may overheat. If this happens, the processor will stop. Turn it off and wait for the motor to cool before proceeding. It will usually cool within 10 minutes. In extreme cases, cooling could take an hour. Safety switches prevent the machine from operating when the work bowl or the cover is not locked into position. The motor stops within seconds when it has been turned off, and a fast-stop circuit stops it instantly when the pusher assembly is removed.
