Processor/Blender has been designed  
with a unique safety system which  
prevents damage to the unit’s motor  
and drive system, should you  
inadvertently overload your appliance.  
The safety system will automatically cut  
the electric power to the appliance  
when the device senses an overload or  
excessive temperature in the motor or  
drive system. Should this occur during  
use and the appliance stops  
functioning, following is the re-setting  
procedure:  
1. Turn the “ON/OFF” speed control  
to the “OFF” position  
2. Unplug the unit from the wall  
receptacle.  
3. Remove and empty the processor  
bowl. Ensure that no food is  
jamming the cutting blades or  
attachments.  
4. Allow the appliance to cool down  
for a minimum of 30 minutes.  
5. Re-install the processor bowl and  
re-plug appliance in the wall outlet.  
6. Proceed to use the appliance as  
before. Should the appliance still  
fail to operate, turn the “ON/OFF”  
speed control to the “OFF” position  
and unplug from the wall outlet.  
Allow the appliance to cool down  
for an additional 1 to 2 hours. After  
this time has passed, repeat the

For coarser chopping, use the pulse  
button for a few seconds and monitor  
food texture.  
Pre-cut larger pieces to make them fit  
into the feed tube. When chopping  
hard foods (e.g. meat, cheese) cut  
into 1 “/2.4 cm cubes.  
For shredding, place food horizontally  
into the feed tube, for slicing place the  
food vertically.  
When blending, pour the liquids in  
first and then add the solid food.  
Begin blending at the lower speed  
and increase when needed.
