3. Do NOT use the Dough Blade to make pie crust. Use the Chopping Blade for
pie dough (see recipes).
Bread Making Tips for the Dough Blade
1. For best results, use ingredients at room temperature and be sure the butter
is soft.
2. Check the date on the yeast package to be sure it hasn't expired. Measure
flour accurately by spooning it into a measuring cup designed for dry
ingredients. Level it off with the straight side of a knife or metal spatula. Do not
pack flour by tapping the cup when measuring.
3. Use the amount of liquid and flour in the bread recipe provided as a guide. You
can experiment with other favorite yeast bread recipes.
4. You may use bread flour, if you'd prefer. Breads will be taller.
Food Processing Tips/Liquids
• Hot liquids (not boiling) and hot foods can be processed in the Bowl.
• Be sure to process small amounts of liquids - 2 cups or less at a time. Larger
amounts may leak from the Bowl.
Care & Cleaning
NOTE: Do not attempt to sharpen the cutting edges of the Chopping Blade or the
Reversible Disc. They are permanently sharpened at the factory and will be
ruined by attempted sharpening.
1. Before cleaning, be sure the unit is Off and the cord is unplugged.
2. Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy
cleanup.
3. Wipe the Base, Control area, and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Stubborn spots can be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild, non-
abrasive cleaner. Do not immerse the Base in liquid.
4. All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher, top rack.
• If washing by hand, wash in hot, sudsy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
If necessary, use a small nylon bristle brush to thoroughly clean the Bowl
and Food Chute/Cover; this type of brush will also help prevent cutting
yourself on the Chopping Blade and Slice/Shred Disc.
• If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on the top rack only – not
in or near the utensil basket.
5. Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.
6. Do not fill the Bowl with boiling water or place any of the parts in boiling
water. Some foods, such as carrots, may temporarily stain the Bowl. To
remove stains, make a paste of 1 tablespoon baking soda and two
tablespoons warm water. Apply the paste to the stains and rub with a cloth.
Rinse in sudsy water and dry.
