Troubleshooting - Cuisinart CHF 529.00 Original Instructions Manual

7. TECHNICAL SAFETY INFORMATION
If the processor runs for an exceptionally long time when chopping, mixing or kneading a thick
or heavy mixture in successive batches, the motor may overheat. If this happens, the processor
will stop. Turn it off and wait for the motor to cool before proceeding. It will usually cool within 10
minutes. In extreme cases, it could take an hour.
Safety switches prevent the machine from operating when the work bowl or the cover is not
locked into position. The motor stops within seconds when the machine is turned off; and when
the pusher assembly is removed, a fast-stop circuit also enables the motor to stop within seconds.

8.TROUBLESHOOTING

Food Processing
1. Problem: The food is unevenly processed when chopping.
Solution:
• The ingredients should be cut evenly into 1.5-2.5cm pieces before processing.
• Process in batches to avoid overloading.
2. Problem: Slices are uneven or slanted.
Solution:
• Place evenly cut food, cut side down, into the feed tube. Always use the smallest feed tube
possible.
• Apply even pressure on the pusher.
3. Problem: Food falls over in feed tube.
Solution:
• Feed tube should be packed full for best results.
4. Problem: Some food remains on top of the disc.
Solution:
• It is normal for small pieces to remain; cut remaining bits by hand and add to processed
ingredients.
Spiralising
1. Problem: No room for ribbon stacks to fall.
Solution:
• Turn the food processor off, remove the Spiraliser Cover, and transfer the food to a separate
bowl before continuing.
2. Problem: Spaghetti cuts wrap around stem.
Solution:
• Turn the food processor off, remove the Spiraliser Cover, and transfer the food to a separate
bowl before continuing.
3. Problem: Food is not spiralising.
Solution:
• Remove food from Feed Tube, remove scraps from Spiral Disc and Spiraliser Pusher and retrim
edges of food to form a new, flat surface.
