37CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
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 blades and discs carefully.
Their cutting edges are very sharp.
Never put blades or discs on the motor shaft
until the Work Bowl is locked in place.
Always be sure that the blade or disc is down
on the motor shaft as far as it will go.
Always insert the blade in the Work Bowl
before putting ingredients in bowl.
When slicing, shredding or dicing 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 blade.
Be careful to prevent the Metal Chopping
Blade from falling out of the Work Bowl when
emptying the bowl. Remove it before tilting the
Work Bowl.
TECHNICAL DATA
The motor in your Cuisinart
®
CompleteChef™
Cooking Food Processor operates on a
standard 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 food
processor will stop.
Turn it off and unplug to reset. Wait for the
motor to cool before proceeding. It will usually
cool within 10 minutes. In extreme cases,
it could take an hour. Plug the unit back in.
Safety switches prevent the machine from
operating when the Work Bowl or the Lid 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.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Food Processing
Problem: The food is unevenly processed
when chopping.
Solution:
• The ingredients should be cut evenly into
½- to 1-inch pieces before processing.
• Process in batches to avoid overloading.
Problem: Slices are uneven or slanted.
Solution:
• Place evenly cut food, cut side down, into
the Feed Tube. Always use the smallest Feed
Tube possible.
• Apply even pressure on the Pusher.
Problem: Food falls over in Feed Tube.
Solution:
• Feed Tube should be packed full for best
results.
Problem: Some food remains on top of the disc.
Solution:
• It is normal for small pieces to remain; cut
remaining bits by hand and add to processed
ingredients.
Problem: The Food Processor Lid is
misaligned and cannot be locked into place
Solution:
• Please make sure that the Food Processor
Lid Seal is in place and the Food Processor
Lid is assembled correctly. Please see
instructions on page 14.
• Make sure there is no obstruction.
Dicing Kit
Problem: Food is stuck in the grid.
Solution:
• Do not use your fingers to clean the grid.
ONLY USE THE CLEANING TOOL.

Dicing Disc.

Tool to push stubborn food through grid.
