Never operate the Mini-Prep
®
continuously for longer than
1 minute at a time.
Note: The Prep Bowl and Cover may
become scratched when you use them
for grinding coffee, grain and spices.
This does not affect the performance
of the Mini-Prep
®
Processor. However,
you may want to reserve that bowl for
grinding, and purchase an additional
bowl and cover set for other uses.
These are available from the Cuisinart
®
Customer Service Department, which
you can reach by dialing our toll-free
number: 800-726-0190. Ask for Model
DLC-195A when ordering.

Adding Liquid
You can add liquids such as water, oil or
flavoring while the machine is running.
You might want to add oil when making
mayonnaise or salad dressing, for
example. Or you could add vanilla or
alcohol when making frozen yogurt.
Pour the liquid through one of the two
openings in the cover. IMPORTANT:
Add liquid through only one opening at a
time. The other opening must be left free
for air to escape. If both openings are
blocked, liquid cannot flow smoothly
into the bowl.
Removing Food from the Sides
of the Bowl
Occasionally food will stick to the sides
of the bowl as you process. Stop the
machine to clear it away. AFTER THE
BLADE HAS STOPPED MOVING, remove
the cover, and use the spatula to scrape
the food from the sides of the bowl back
into the center.
Reversing the Blade in the Middle of
a Processing Task
While preparing some recipes, you may
want to switch the blade from sharp to
blunt or vice versa.
1. Be sure neither of the Control Levers
is pressed down.
2. Unplug the unit.

10. Plug the unit into the electrical outlet

be processed.

sure the food is cut in small pieces,
and the bowl is not overloaded.

on the food you are processing.

the food, stop the machine by
