Note
Care should be taken when removing the food
from the processing bowl by ensuring the motor
and Quad® processing blade, dough blade or disc,
have completely stopped before disassembling.
Ensure the OFF button is pressed to switch the
motor off, the appliance is switched off at the
power outlet and it is unplugged, before remo
-
ving the lid from the bowl. The processing bowl
should then be unlocked from the motor body,
then the Quad
®
processing blade, dough or disc
carefully removed before attempting to remove the
processed food.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
SYSTEM
The motor is protected from burning out by an
automatic, temperature operated, cutout switch.
If the Food Processor is overloaded or operated
continuously for too long, the motor may overheat.
If this happens, the power on light will continue to
illuminate even though the safety cut-out switch
will prevent the food processor from operating. To
operate the food processor again, you must switch
off, unplug and allow to cool for approximately
30 minutes. Once the motor has fully cooled, it is
ready for use again.
Some stiff mixtures, such as dough, may cause
the dough blade to rotate more slowly than normal.
If this happens, do not process for longer than
1 minute.
If the blades or discs should jam while processing,
ensure the OFF button is pressed to switch the
motor off and the food processor is switched off at
the power outlet and the power cord is unplugged.
Remove the processing lid and adjust any food
wedged between the blade and the bowl or in the
disc. Replace the lid and proceed as normal. If this
occurs again, the processing bowl may be overloa
-
ded, so remove some of the food and process in
smaller batches.
Note
The Food Processor is designed so the motor will
not operate without the processing bowl and lid
correctly locked into position. In the event that
the food processor starts without the lid correctly
locked into position, immediately disconnect at the
power outlet and return to your local Solis Service
Centre for examination.
The Food Processor can process foods in a variety
of ways depending on which blade or disc you
choose.
Basic Food Processing
Techniques
CHOPPING WITH THE
QUAD
®
PROCESSING BLADE
The Quad
®
processing blade chops raw and cooked
food to the consistency required, from coarsely
chopped to minced. For many large processing
tasks, the four blades will reduce the processing
time needed to achieve the desired results. The
result depends on the type of food and how long
the food is processed. Always remember to place
the Quad
®
processing blade into the processing
bowl before adding the food.
Note
To avoid over-processing check the consistency
frequently when the food being chopped requires
a coarse or thick texture. If necessary, press the
OFF button, unlock the lid and use the spatula to
scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even
processing.
