CLEANING, STORAGE
AND MAINTENANCE
• Keep your Cuisinart
®
Core Custom
™
13-Cup Food
Processor ready to use on the kitchen counter. When
not in use, leave it unplugged. Store accessories in
the provided storage hub, inside the work bowl.
• Keep the blade and discs out of the reach
of children.
• All parts except the housing base are dishwasher
safe but on the top rack only. Due to intense
water heat, washing the work bowl, cover and
accessories on the bottom rack may cause damage
over time. Place the cover with the feed tube facing
up to ensure proper cleaning. Place the work bowl
and pushers upside down for drainage. Remember
to unload the dishwasher carefully when removing
sharp blade and discs.
• To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, cover,
pushers and blade or disc immediately after use
so food won’t dry on them. Be sure to position the
pushers and work bowl upside down for drainage.
If food lodges in the pusher, remove it by running
water through it, or use a bottle brush.
• If you wash the blade and discs by hand, do it
carefully. When handling, use the plastic hubs.
Avoid leaving them in soapy water where they may
disappear from sight. If necessary, use a brush.
• The work bowl is made of Tritan
®
plastic with
metal components. It should not be placed in a
microwave oven.
• The housing base may be wiped clean with
a soapy, nonabrasive cloth or sponge. Be sure to
dry it thoroughly.
• If the feet leave spots on the counter, spray them
with a spot remover and wipe with a damp sponge.
• If any trace of the spot remains, repeat the proce-
dure and wipe the area with a damp sponge and
nonabrasive cleaning powder.
IMPORTANT: Always use the provided storage hub.
Never store any blade or disc on the stem adapter.
No blade or disc should be placed on the shaft
except when the processor is about to be used.
MAINTENANCE: Any other servicing should be
performed by an authorized service representative.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Like all powerful electrical appliances, a food processor
should be handled with care. Follow these guidelines to
protect yourself and your family from misuse that could
cause injury.
• Handle and store metal blade and discs carefully
utilizing the provided storage hub. Their cutting
edges are very sharp.
• Never put stem adapter into the work bowl until the
work bowl is locked into place.
• Always be sure that the blade or disc is down on the
stem adapter as far as it will go.
• Always insert the stem adapter with metal blade in
the work bowl before putting ingredients in bowl.
• When slicing or shredding food, always use
the pusher. Never put your fingers or spatula into
feed tube.
• Always wait for the blade or disc to stop spinning
before you remove the pusher assembly or cover
from the work bowl.
• Always unplug the unit before removing food,
cleaning or putting on or taking off parts.
• Always remove work bowl from base of machine
before you remove the chopping/mixing/dough blade
or slicing/shredding disc.
• Be careful to prevent the blade or disc from fall-
ing out of the work bowl when emptying the bowl.
Remove the stem adapter with blade or disc before
tilting the work bowl.
TECHNICAL DATA
The motor in your food processor operates on a stan-
dard line operating current. The appropriate voltage and
frequency for your machine are shown on a label on the
bottom of the base.
An automatic temperature-controlled circuit breaker in
the motor ensures complete protection against motor
burnout. If the processor runs for an exceptionally long
time when chopping, mixing or kneading a thick or
heavy mixture in successive batches, the motor may
overheat. If this happens, the processor will stop. Turn it
off, unplug the unit and wait for the motor to cool
before proceeding. It will usually cool within 10 minutes.
In extreme cases, it could take an hour.
Safety switches prevent the machine from operating
when the work bowl or the cover is not locked into
position. The motor stops within seconds when the
motor is turned off; and when the pusher assembly is
removed, a fast-stop circuit also enables the motor to
stop within seconds.
Cuisinart offers a Limited Three-Year Warranty on the
entire machine.
