ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS
Before first use
Before using your Cuisinart Elite Collection
12-Cup (2.8 L) Food Processor for the first time,
wash the work bowls, work bowl cover,
pusher assembly, blades, discs, and spatula
(see Cleaning Instructions on page 15).
1. Place the food processor base on a dry,
level countertop with the controls facing
toward you. Do not plug the unit in until
it is fully assembled.
2. With the large bowl on the base, use
the handle to turn the work bowl
counterclockwise to lock it onto the
housing base.
To use the small bowl, place your thumbs
in the finger recesses and align the pour
spout facing opposite the handle. Push
down to lock.
Blade operation
The BladeLock feature is designed to keep
the blade in place during processing, pouring,
lifting, and handling tasks – but is not
permanently attached. Handle with care.
Always check to be sure the blade is
securely locked before turning the bowl
upside down.
