Squirt a small amount of dishwashing
liquid into assembled blender jar and
fill halfway with warm water. Run on
STIR for 15 seconds. Repeat using
clean tap water. Empty blender jar and
carefully disassemble parts. Wash
cutting assembly, gasket and locking
ring in warm, soapy water. Rinse and
dry all parts thoroughly.
• Place blender cover on firmly.
Always operate the blender with the
cover on.
•
Make sure locking ring is tightly
attached to blender jar.

7. TO CRUSH ICE: Use Blender Jar
Processor from the electrical outlet
before cleaning. The blender is made
of corrosion-resistant parts which are
easy to clean. Before first use and after
every use, clean each part thoroughly.
Periodically check all parts before
reassembly. If any part is damaged or

• When scraping the blender jar with
a spatula, remove the food from the
sides of the blender jar and place it
in the center of the blender jar, over
the cutting assembly.
Blender/ Food Processor motor is
strong enough to crush ice without
liquid at any speed; however, for your
convenience we have preset the best
speed for ice crushing. To give you
greater control, the ICE CRUSH
function automatically operates as a
PULSE function. To crush ice, place
ice cubes in the blender jar, and place
the cover and the measured pour lid
on the blender jar. Press the ON
button. Press the ICE CRUSH
button in short pulses until ice is
crushed to desired consistency. See the
"Recipe Tips" section on page 9 for
more details.

REMOVING PROCESSED FOOD
General Guidelines for Preparing Foods for Processing
with the Food Processor Chopping Blade.
Before removing processed food, press
Off button and wait for blade to stop
spinning. Then remove cover by
turning it counterclockwise. Never try
to remove cover and work bowl
together; this can damage work bowl.
Onions and other food with a high
water content turn into a smooth
purée very quickly. Do not over-
chop - look at food frequently
through work bowl.
THE FOOD
HOW TO PREPARE IT.
Fruit and vegetables
Peel and core if necessary. Remove large hard pits and seeds.
Cut into 3/4"(1.9cm) pieces and process up to 1 cup (250ml) at a time.
To purée, follow same procedure as
for chopping, but let machine run
until food is a smooth purée.
Meat, poultry and fish
These should be very cold but not frozen. First, cut into
3/4"(1.9cm) pieces. Put up to 1/2 pound (225g) in work bowl. If you
want to chop or purée more, do it in batches of not more than
1/2 pound (225g) each. Pulse/chop or run continuously until desired
consistency is reached. Check texture every 2 or 3 seconds to
avoid overprocessing.
New users are often surprised at how
fast the processor works. You will
quickly get used to its great speed.
These are some conditions that affect
your results:
Bread, crackers or cookies
for crumbs
Break into 1"(2.5cm) pieces and process continuously until texture
is fine. For seasoned crumbs, chop with herbs For buttered
crumbs, dribble melted butter through feed tube while

processing - 1 teaspoon (5ml) melted butter to each slice of bread.
1. Before tilting bowl, use spatula to
remove food from around blade.
Carefully remove blade by the
plastic hub.
Type of processing you choose –
continuous or pulse/chopping.
Crumb crusts
Chop crackers or cookies as described in preceding paragraph.
Add sugar, spices and butter and cut into pieces, as specified by
recipe. Pulse/chop until combined.
ADDING FOOD
2. Hold top of blade in place with
finger or spatula while pouring out
processed food.
WHILE PROCESSING
Hard cheese “grated”
If it’s too hard to cut with a knife, don’t try to chop it – it may
damage blade. First cut into 3/4"(1.9cm) pieces. Pulse/chop until
pea-sized, then process continuously. You can chop it as coarse
or as fine as you want. Simply run machine longer for finer
chop. Process up to 3 ounces (85g) at one time.
To add liquid while the machine is
running, pour it through open feed
tube. This is especially useful when
making mayonnaise or dressings.
A small hole in the pusher allows you
to add liquids in a very slow, steady
stream – useful when making sauces.
At this point, you may either lift the
work bowl off motor base, or hold the
collar at the base and turn the handle
of the bowl counterclockwise and lift
blade straight up.
Whipping cream
Processor-whipped cream works well for most purposes. It is
excellent as a topping for desserts or hot drinks. Cream must
be at refrigerator temperature. You can whip up to 1 cup (250ml)
at a time.
®
Your SmartPower Duet Blender/Food
When you want to add small pieces
of food like cheese, meat or garlic
cloves while machine is running,
drop them through open feed tube.
Processor makes many everyday food
preparation tasks much easier and
faster. Follow these guidelines to get
best results when using metal blade
with food you prepare most often.
Parsley and other fresh herbs
Work bowl and metal blade must be clean and dry. Remove
stems; use leaves only. Dry herbs completely. The more herbs
you chop at once, the finer chop you can get. Chopped herbs
keep for several days in the refrigerator in airtight bags, or can
be frozen for months.
To prevent spills when adding
sugar and other dry ingredients,
use a funnel.
NOTE: Occasionally, a piece of food
may become wedged between the
blade and the work bowl. If this
happens, remove the cover, lift the
blade out carefully and remove the

4. Put cover on work bowl, lock it
into place by twisting it clockwise
and insert food in feed tube.
Do not shred.
Cabbage, Iceberg Lettuce
Cut off top & bottom, leaving center
section. Cut into wedges to fit feed tube

Uncooked meat
Use boneless cuts.
and poultry
Cut into feed-tube lengths. Remove skin
if desired. Wrap in plastic wrap and put
in freezer until it feels hard when you try
to squeeze it but is still easily pierced
through with tip of sharp knife. Remove
plastic wrap and stand upright in feed
tube.
(8 oz.(250g) maximum at one time)
Bread, Cookie or
Cracker Crumbs
For best results, use day-old bread
(drier bread works best). Break bread
slices into 1/2"(1.3cm) pieces, and
process no more than 1 cup (250ml) of
pieces at a time on Mix for 5-10
seconds. Crackers and cookies should
also be broken into 1/2"(1.3cm) pieces;
process 1 cup (250ml) at a time on Mix
for 10-15 seconds. Turn blender OFF.
Note: Chicken and beef for stir-fries
should be sliced with the grain. Boned,
skinned chicken breast will usually fit
when frozen as described above and cut
in half crosswise.
Wait until disc stops spinning
before removing cover. When it
stops, remove cover before
removing work bowl. Never try to
remove cover and work bowl
together; this could damage
