QUALITY
* Fresh, crisp
or
firm
fruits and vegetables process bes
t.
That
doesn t
mean you can't use up an
old
carrot
or
limp piece
of
celery, but
you
should
not
expect the same results
as

1.
LOADING OF FOOD CHUTE
* When
pr
ocessing long
narrow
foods, pack Chute so food will stand
upright,
by
alternati
ng
thick and thin ends (P).
*
To
process a single food, position
it
on
the left side
of
the Chute (OFF
Button side). Hold
it
in place with the Pusher. The clockwise rota
tion
of
t
he
Disc pushes the food against the left wall
of
the Chute,
wh
ich helps
to
hold food upright.
* For long shreds or slices, arrange 2 1/2 inch food pieces
ho
rlzontal!y in
the Chute. These are attractive in salads, Oriental dishes and vegetable
dips
(Q).
* For
foods
that
don't
seem to
fit
the Chute, try loading Chute froM the
bottom when slicing. Bottom
of
Chute is
slight
ly larger than the top,
so
food which
won
't f
it
the top may
fit
the bottom. For neater slices -.;uta
sr.
1all slice
off
one end
of
food so
it
rests flat on Disc.
* Place small foods,
or
short pieces, which will stand
up
ri
ght
directly
on
the Disc to simplify arrangement. Then carefully position Food Chute
over them and slice.
2.
USING THE FOOD PUSHER
* Position food in the
Chute
and hold Food Pusher over the food before
turning Processor on.
* The amo
un
t of pressure
yo
u should app
ly
on the Pusher varies
depending
on
the firm
ne
ss
of
the food you
ar
e slicing
or
shredding and
th
e results desired. For most foods, steady, even pressure is needed.
Press d
own
lightly
on food
with
Food Pusher. Let the Food Processor
do
the work. HEAVY PRESSURE WILL
NOT
SPEED UP processi11g.
