PRODUCT ASSEMBLY

Before first use
Before using your Food Processor for the first time, wash all parts and accessories either by hand or in the dishwasher (see “Care and Cleaning” section).
NOTE: Your Food Processor is designed so that all accessories may be stored inside the Work Bowl.

Lift up the Lid Latch to unlock the Cover. Tilt the Work Bowl Cover back and lift it straight up so that the Lid Hinge pulls out of the Handle Hinge.

Remove all parts and accessories from the Work Bowl, and lift the Food Pusher out of the Feed Tube.
IMPORTANT: Place the Food Processor on a dry, level countertop with the controls facing forward. Do not plug in the Food Processor until it is completely assembled.

Place the Work Bowl on the Base, aligning the Handle with the raised button on the right side of the Base. The bowl will click into place and should be flush against the Base when properly aligned.

Place the Drive Adapter in the Work Bowl, lowering it onto the Drive Pin.
NOTE: For ease of assembly, install the desired Blade or Disc before attaching the Work Bowl Cover.

To attach the Work Bowl Cover, hook the Lid Hinge into the Handle Hinge on the Work Bowl and close the Cover.

Once the Work Bowl Cover is closed, the Lid Latch will lock in position.
NOTE: Your Food Processor will not operate unless the Work Bowl Cover is fully closed, the large Food Pusher is in place, and the Work Bowl is properly seated on the Base.

INSTALLING THE MULTIPURPOSE BLADE OR DOUGH BLADE

Install the Lower Drive Adapter onto the Upper Drive Adapter. Place the Blade on the Drive Adapter. Rotate the Blade so it falls down to the Base of the Adapter.

Install the Work Bowl Cover, and be sure the Lid Latch is pushed down to the locked position.

INSTALLING THE EXTERNALLY ADJUSTABLE SLICING DISC

Hold the Slicing Disc by the finger gripsand lower it onto the Drive Adapter.

To attach the Work Bowl Cover, hook the Lid Hinge into the Handle Hinge on the Work Bowl and close the Cover.
TIP: You may need to adjust the Drive Adapter with a slight turn on the power shaft until it drops into place. For the easiest installation, make sure the Adjustment Knob is in the “0” position.

Once the Work Bowl Cover is closed, the Lid Latch will lock in position.
NOTE: Your Food Processor will not operate unless the Work Bowl Cover is fully closed and the Work Bowl is properly seated on the Base.

ADJUSTING THE SLICING THICKNESS

Set the desired thickness by moving the Knob to the left for thinner slices and to the right for thicker slices.
NOTE: The Knob only works with the Externally Adjustable Slicing Disc. Changing thickness settings with other discs or Blades installed will have no effect on operation.

INSTALLING THE DICING KIT

With the Work Bowl removed from the Base, place Dicing Kit Base, Blade (text side up), and Cover in the Work Bowl.

Align Dicing Kit Cover with wide mouth feed shoot.

Place the Work Bowl Cover on the Work Bowl. Take out small and/or medium Feed Tube. Insert food to dice.

After dicing, remove the Work Bowl Cover, Dicing Kit Cover, and Dicing Blade, then insert the Dicing Kit Clean Out Tool into the Dicing Kit Base and push any extra food through the grid.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Problem Solution
 If your Food Processor should malfunction or fail to operate, check the following: Check to see if the Food Processor is securely plugged into an earthed electrical outlet.
Make sure that the Bowl and Lid are properly aligned and locked in place.
Have you pressed more than one button at the same time?
Unplug the Food Processor, then plug it back into the outlet.
Is the fuse in the circuit to the Food Processor in working order? If you have a circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit is closed.
 

The Food Processor may need to cool to room temperature:

If the speed light turns off and the O/Pulse light flashes, wait until the O/Pulse light turns off and retry.
The Food Processor may take from 5-15 minutes to cool completely.
The motor may be locked: If the speed light stays on while the O/Pulse light flashes, press the O/Pulse button to reset the motor.
 Food Processor not shredding or slicing properly: Make sure the raised-Blade side of the disc is positioned face-up on the Drive Adapter.
Make sure ingredients are suitable for slicing or shredding.

If the Work Bowl Cover won’t close when using the disc: Make sure the disc is installed correctly and is positioned properly on the Drive Adapter.
 If the problem cannot be corrected: See the “Terms of KitchenAid Guarantee(“Guarantee”)” sections.
