Operating Your Food Processor

WARNING
!
Rotating Blade Hazard
Always use food
pusher.
Keep fingers out of
openings.
Keep away from
children.
Failure to do so can
result in amputation or
cuts.
• Before operating the food processor,
be sure the work bowl, blades and
work bowl cover are properly
assembled on the food processor
power base (see page 12).
• The Clean Touch
control pads take just a touch of your
finger for optimum control and
convenience in operating the food
processor. By touching the ON control
pad, the unit will run continuously
and the red indicator light will glow
until you touch the OFF control pad.
NOTE: Line on the work bowl
indicates the maximum level of
liquid that can be processed.
OFF/ON/PULSE
™
• The PULSE control pad helps to
better regulate the degree of
processing. By alternately pressing
and releasing the PULSE pad, the
food processor will be quickly turned
on and off. The red indicator light will
glow each time the PULSE pad is
pressed. This allows you to control the
exact length and frequency of
processing since the KitchenAid
Food Processor performs in just a
matter of seconds.
NOTE: If unit fails to operate,
check to be sure that both the
work bowl and cover are properly
positioned on the power base. See
Assembling Your Food Processor,
page 12.
• To stop your food processor, press the
OFF control pad. The ON indicator
light will go off. (The PULSE
indicator light only glows when the
pad is touched). Wait until the blade
or disc comes to a complete stop
before removing the work bowl cover.
Be sure you push the OFF pad before
removing the work bowl cover or
unplugging the unit.
AUTOMATIC BRAKE: When the
food processor is turned OFF, the
automatic brake stops the action of the
blade or disc within seconds. The brake
provides an additional measure of safety
as you remove the work bowl cover.
