Description of Parts

Instructions for Use

Before First Use
Before using the food processor for the first time, wash all of the accessories in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
ipe the food processor base unit with a soft, damp cloth and allow it to dry thoroughly.
Never touch the blades; the stainless steel blade attachment should be washed using a brush and dried carefully.

Note: When using the food processor for the first time, a slight odour may be emitted. This is normal and will soon subside. Allow for sufficient ventilation around the food processor.

Assembling/Using the Compact Prep Pro

All attachments must be securely fitted before use; do not attempt to remove them until the blades have stopped moving.

STEP 1: Before connecting to the mains power supply, position the food processor base unit onto a flat, stable surface, at a height that is comfortable for the user.
STEP 2: Place the mixing bowl onto the food processor base unit and twist it in an anticlockwise direction until it locks into place.
STEP 3: Position the desired attachment onto the shaft in the centre of the mixing bowl and press it firmly down until it locks into place. The blade attachment can be used for blending, while the whipping disc can be used to whip cream quickly. STEP 4: Add the ingredients to the mixing bowl, taking care not to exceed the max. fill mark. If there are not many ingredients, add the spacer onto the shaft in the mixing bowl after the ingredients have been added.
STEP 5: Place the lid on top of the mixing bowl and turn it in an anticlockwise direction until it locks into place.
STEP 6: Plugin and switch on the food processor at the mains power supply.
STEP 7: Press and hold the desired multidirectional button. Using the forward mode (right button) is useful for grating, chopping or grinding. The reverse mode (left button) is useful for mixing, stirring, or whipping.
STEP 8: Once finished, switch off and unplug the food processor.
STEP 9: Turn the mixing bowl in a clockwise direction and lift away.

Note: Check that the lid is securely fitted before use.
To prevent the food processor from overheating, do not dry blend ingredients for more than 45 seconds at a time. If the blades are not running smoothly, stop the food processor and carefully remove the cross-blade attachment. Add a small amount of cold liquid or reduce the quantity of the ingredients in the mixing bowl.
Caution: Take care when handling the cross-blade attachment, as the blades may get hot during use.
Warning: Do not blend warm or hot liquid or food, as this may cause a pressure build-up and, in turn, serious injury
Do not operate for long periods of time. Max. operation time is 45 seconds; allow the food processor to cool for 1 minute before using it again. Using the food processor for longer than 45 seconds at a time will cause the temperature to increase, which may, in turn, lead to a pressure build-up.
If this happens, switch off and unplug the food processor from the mains power supply and allow it to cool thoroughly before attempting to remove the cross- blade attachment. Do not immerse the mixing bowl in cold water at this time

**Using the Spacer

**

When using the food processor with a small amount of ingredients, the spacer can be used to keep food near the blades during use.
Use the food processor as normal and after the ingredients have been added, attach the spacer to the shaft above the ingredients. Fit the lid and continue to use the food processor as instructed in the section titled ‘Assembling/Using the Compact Prep Pro’.
