                                   1. Before connecting the appliance check the mains voltage complies with
                                   the voltage specified.
                                   2. Place your Food Processor at a convenient height so that you can operate it
                                      easily. You should be able to look down into the attachments to check the
                                      circulation of the ingredients.
                                   3. Clear out some space around the machine and keep Food Processor away
                                      from direct heat and sun.
4. Take care as the cutting edges of the disc blades are very sharp.
5. Ensure that the bowl assembly is perfectly locked with the basic unit.
                                   6. For unlocking the bowl cover turn the bowl cover clockwise by pressing
                                      the release switch on the upper base.
                                   7. While using blending or dry grinding jars, fix the bowl and bowl cover as
                                      the machine will not work till the bowl cover is in place.
                                   8. While using centrifugal juicer place the juicer body with filter on to the

Don'ts
1. Do not apply undue pressure while using the coconut shredding disc.
                                   2. Do not operate the centrifugal juicer unless juicer cover, filter is properly
                                      clamped with the juicer body.
                                   7. For extracting the juice from citrus fruits like orange, mousmi etc. it is
                                      advisable not to use the food pusher so that seeds pop out automatically.
                                      For best results, it is advised to cut the fruits into two halves and remove
                                      seeds before extracting the juice.
                                   8. Do not feed larger sized fruits into the feeder tube by force. This can
                                      overload the motor and juicer filter may get unbalanced.
                                   9. Never lay a thin plastic sheet or cloth under the basic unit. It may get
                                      sucked up and block the ventilation holes in the base.
                                   10. Do not allow the cord to hang over the edges of the table, or touch hot
                                       surface.
                                   11. Do not push food into the feeder tube by fingers while it is in operation.
                                       If fruit become clogged in the feeder tube, use pusher to push it down. If it
                                       doesn't work turn off the motor, unplug the unit, then disassemble the food
                                       processor to remove remaining food.
                                   13. Do not attempt to repair the food processor at home or allow any
                                       unauthorized person to do it either, in the event of any service problem
                                       please call your nearest service center.
