Dough containing whole
grain flour will take longer
to rise than dough made
of white flour only.
Baked bread is too heavy:
Next time, feel dough to
be sure it is uniformly soft,
pliable and slightly sticky
before setting aside to rise.
Let dough fully double in
bulk in bowl or bag, punch
it down, then let it double
again after it is shaped.
PROBLEMS
AND SOLUTIONS
WITH TYPICAL
SWEET DOUGHS
Motor slows down:
• Amount of dough may
exceed maximum
capacity. Remove half,
and process in 2 batches.
• Don’t process too long
after all ingredients have
been incorporated. Rich
doughs will give you
good results after only
30 seconds of kneading.
Blade doesn’t
incorporate ingredients:
Butter or margarine, if not
melted, must be cut into
tablespoon-size pieces
before being added
to work bowl.
Metal dough blade rises
in work bowl:
Blade may not have been
pushed down as far as
possible before processing
started. Machine may be
overloaded. Remove half
of dough and process in
2 batches.

INSTRUCTIONS
FOR WHISK
ATTACHMENT
The Cuisinart whisk attach-
ment connects to the motor
shaft of the Limited Edition
Metal
™
Food Processor
much the same way as the
discs do. The two stainless
steel whisks rotate rapidly
as the power unit slowly
revolves around the work
bowl, to continuously aer-
ate food. The whisk attach-
ment produces extra-light
egg whites to let you make
meringue shells with half
the usual amount of sugar.
It whips cream to soft or
stiff peaks and produces
fluffy mashed potatoes. It
also makes chiffon cakes,
light, airy soufflés, and
fluffy meringues for pies.
Before use, clean the entire
whisk attachment. Wipe the
power unit with a damp
cloth and dry. DO NOT
SUBMERGE IN WATER.
The other parts can be
rinsed in hot, soapy water
and then dried.
THE PARTS:
The power unit is smooth
on top except for the whisk
ejector tab at the wide end.
On the underside are two
openings to attach the
whisks. In the center is
a hexagonal rod with a
grooved collar. The rod fits
into an opening on the
adapter. At the narrow end
of the power unit is a base
with two tabs which can act
as a rest when the base
is not in use.
The two whisks are made
of stainless steel. The
circular stems fit into
openings on the underside
of the power unit. Guards
at the top of the stems
prevent food from getting
into the sealed power unit.
The adapter locks onto the
motor shaft. The adapter
consists of a clear plastic
outer sheath and a white
plastic inner sheath that
fit over the motor shaft.
TO ASSEMBLE:
1. To insert the whisks,
hold the power unit
in one hand with the
underside facing you,
wide end at the top.
Insert whisks into
openings at wide end.
Push whisks in as far
as they will go. They
will click into a locked
position. The circular
guard on the stem
of the whisk should
almost touch the white
plastic collar around
the opening.
2. To lock the adapter to
the motor shaft of the
Limited Edition Metal
™
Food Processor with the
work bowl in place, hold
the adapter with the
fixed ring at the bottom.
Be sure the ring is loose
and not over the sheath.
Line up the shape of
the inner sheath with
the shape of the motor
shaft. Gently push down
the adapter as far as it
will go. The narrow top
of the adapter will rest
