USEFUL HINTS & TIPS
SIMPLE
•
AUTO button: the motor adapts its speed to the task at hand.
• PULSE button: for more control over the end result.
This is the setting you need for precision chopping or blending.
Place soft foods (e.g. meat, fish or soft cheese) into the freezer for a few minutes to firm
them up before chopping, grating or slicing them in your food processor.
NB. they should be firm, not frozen!
PRACTICAL
• If you want to spend your time using your food processor, rather
than cleaning it, do the first task in the mini bowl, then move
on to the midi bowl, and finish off with the main bowl.
Always start with the hard or dry ingredients and end with the liquid
ones.
• If your appliance starts to vibrate, carefully wash and dry the feet,
and check that you have not exceeded the maximum capacities
shown on p.7.
XL LID
●• The small feed tube is ideal for:
- slicing long fruit or vegetables (e.g. cucumbers, carrots, leeks).
Stand the fruit and vegetables upright and close together.
- slicing small fruit or vegetables (e.g. strawberries, kiwi fruit, turnips).
Introduce them into the small feed tube one at a time.
- grating long fruit or vegetables (e.g. carrots, courgettes) or chunks of cheese.
Stack them horizontally in the small feed tube.
●• The large feed tube is ideal for:
- slicing round fruit or vegetables (e.g. oranges, pineapples, apples, pears, mangoes,
tomatoes, potatoes).
Either cut them into large pieces before introducing them into the feed tube, or leave
them whole.
Make sure you do not fill it beyond the MAX level indicator, otherwise your food
processor will not start.
MINI BOWL
• The mini bowl is ideal for processing small amounts. Use it to chop onions or herbs, mince
meat, or whiz up dips, salad dressings and mayonnaise.
• Before chopping fresh herbs, check that both the herbs and the bowl are perfectly clean
and dry. This will ensure you get the very best results. The herbs will also keep
for longer.
• You can use the mini bowl directly as a serving dish, providing you
remember to remove the metal blade first!
