When using electrical appliances, always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and/or injury, including the following:
• Read all instructions.
• To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put food
processor base, cord or plug in water or other liquid.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used
by or near children.
• Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning.
• Avoid contacting blades and moving parts.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord
or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, or has
been dropped or damaged in any manner. Contact the
consumer service number listed in this manual. This
appliance has important markings on the plug blade.
The attachment plug or entire cordset is not suitable for
replacement. If damaged, the appliance must be replaced.
• The use of attachments not recommended by the
appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock
or injury.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or
touch hot surfaces.
• Keep hands and utensils out of container while processing
to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage
to the food processor. A scraper may be used but must be
used only when the processor is not running.
• Never feed food by hand. Always use food pusher.
• Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.

into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
modify the plug in any way.
