FOOD PROCESSOR
ASSEMBLY,
USE AND CARE
Please note that the bowl with collar will fit on the
base in four different positions. The handle can be
in front or on either side, and the feed tube in
front, back or on either side. Directions for use
reference a certain position for instructional
purposes only.
FOOD PROCESSOR ASSEMBLY FOR
CHOPPING, PURÉEING AND MIXING
1. Place collar onto motor base.
2. Place work bowl onto the collar with handle
facing front. Twist clockwise to lock onto collar.
3. Place chopping/mixing blade over shaft in
work bowl. Chopping blade should slide easily
to the bottom of the bowl. Lower blade will
almost touch bottom of bowl.
BE SURE TO HANDLE THE METAL BLADE
WITH CARE, AS IT IS RAZOR SHARP!
4. Place food to be processed in work bowl.
Put cover on work bowl and turn the cover
clockwise until it fits into position. Cover lock
must click into locked position prior to use. If
you have trouble fitting the cover on the work
bowl, turn chopping blade hub slightly and
replace cover.
5. The food pusher fits in feed tube with the more
rounded side toward the outside of the bowl.
ALWAYS USE PUSHER TO GUIDE FOOD
THROUGH FEED TUBE. NEVER USE YOUR
FINGERS OR SPATULA.
6. Plug your Goodful
™
by Cuisinart
®
Blender/
Food Processor with work bowl into a
household electrical outlet. Turn dial knob to
desired LOW, HIGH, or PULSE to start
chopping or puréeing. It is recommended that
one hand be placed on the food processor lid
while in use, to provide unit stability. If the
machine doesn’t start, make sure it is plugged
in and the work bowl and cover are locked into
place. The food processor will not start until
the collar, work bowl and work bowl lid are
locked into place. Nevertheless, always unplug
the unit before placing hands into the food
processor bowl. NOTE: The motor base will
start, but the food processor blade will not turn
until assembled properly.
FOOD PROCESSOR ASSEMBLY FOR
SLICING AND SHREDDING
1. Unplug unit. Place gearbox collar onto
motor base.
2. Place workbowl onto the collar with handle
facing front. Twist clockwise to lock onto collar.
3. Place adapter stem onto the center shaft. To
slice: Attach disc to stem with the raised edge
of slicer on top. To shred: Attach disc to stem
with the raised shredding slots on top. Be sure
to handle the metal blade with care, as it is
razor sharp.
4. Place cover on work bowl and turn cover
clockwise until it fits into position and locks.
Insert food into feed tube.
5. Hold pusher with the more rounded side
toward the outside of the bowl and insert it in
feed tube over food. Always use pusher to
guide food through feed tube. Never use your
fingers or spatula.
6. Plug your Goodful

Blender/
Food Processor with work bowl into a
household electrical outlet.
7. To remove cover, unlock it by turning it
counterclockwise, then lift it straight up.
FOOD PROCESSOR
OPERATION
Turn the dial to LOW or HIGH for continuous
operation. Motor will start if you have followed
assembly instructions.
To turn motor off, turn the dial to OFF.
Turn dial to PULSE and alternately “pulse and
release” in short bursts until ingredients have
reached desired consistency.
Never turn cover back and forth to start and stop
processor.
TIPS WHEN USING THE FOOD
PROCESSOR TO CHOP, PURÉE,
AND MIX
1. Cut food into ½- to 1-inch pieces. You will get
a more even chop if you start with pieces that
are all the same size. You can put in up to 1
cup of food at a time. If you want to process
more, do it in batches.
2. It is recommended to use the PULSE function
to chop food. With pulse-chopping technique,
you can get an even chop without danger of
overprocessing. Check texture by looking
through work bowl. Be careful not to
overprocess. For a coarse chop, pulse
only a few times.
3. If you want a finer chop or purée, turn the dial
to HIGH and let machine run continuously
until the food is chopped as fine as you want
it. Check frequently through clear cover or
bowl to avoid over-chopping. Use a plastic
spatula to scrape down any pieces that stick
to inside of bowl.
4. Onions and other food with a high water
content turn into a smooth purée very quickly.
Do not over-chop – look at food frequently
through work bowl.
5. To purée, follow same procedure for
chopping, but let machine run until food is
a smooth purée.
6. New users are often surprised at how fast the
processor works. You will quickly get used to
its great speed.
7. These are some conditions that affect
your results:
• Size of pieces you put in bowl – all should
be about the same size.
• Amount of food you process – don’t add
too much.
• Type of processing you choose – continuous
or pulse-chopping.
ADDING FOOD WHILE PROCESSING
1. To add liquid while the machine is running,
pour it through open feed tube. This is
especially useful when making mayonnaise or
dressings.
2. A small hole in the pusher allows you to add
liquids in a very slow, steady stream – useful
when making sauces or dressings.
3. When you want to add small pieces of food
such as cheese, meat or garlic cloves while
machine is running, drop them through open
feed tube.
4. To prevent spills when adding sugar and other
dry ingredients, use a funnel.
REMOVING PROCESSED FOOD
Before removing processed food, turn dial to OFF
and wait for blade to stop spinning. Then remove
cover by turning it counterclockwise. Never try to
remove cover and work bowl together; this can
damage work bowl.
It is important not to let metal blade fall out of
work bowl as you empty it.
Here are two ways to prevent the blade from
falling out:
1. Before tilting bowl, use spatula to remove
food from around blade. Carefully remove
blade by holding onto the plastic hub.
2. Hold top of blade in place with finger or
spatula while pouring out processed food.
At this point, you may either lift the work bowl off
motor base or hold the collar at the base, turn the
handle of the bowl counterclockwise and lift work
bowl straight up.
NOTE: Occasionally, a piece of food may become
wedged between the blade and the work bowl. If
this happens, turn to remove the cover, lift the
blade out carefully and remove the wedged piece.
Empty the bowl, reinsert the blade and lock the
cover into place. Process smaller amounts of the
food at one time.
TIPS WHEN USING THE FOOD
PROCESSOR TO SLICE AND SHRED
1. Assemble clear work bowl on collar and base
in the usual way. (See page 8.)
2. Use moderate pressure with one hand to
guide food down with the pusher, while using
your other hand to turn the dial to LOW or
HIGH.
3. Turn dial to the OFF position and wait until
disc stops spinning before removing cover.
When it stops, remove cover by turning it
counterclockwise. Next, remove slicing/
shredding disc before removing work bowl.
To remove it, grasp flat top section of adapter
stem and lift it straight up. To remove work
bowl, hold work bowl collar, turn work bowl
counterclockwise and lift it straight up to
remove it from base. Never try to remove
cover and work bowl together; this could
damage work bowl.
