Using your other hand, slide the blade assembly into the blade holder disc until you hear a click. The blade assembly is now in place. Note: You may use the finger notch on the blade assembly to aid in holding/sliding the blade assembly into the blade holder disc (finger notch is not included on the grating blade assembly). ASSEMBLING THE MULTIFUNCTIONAL DISC IN THE WORK BOWL 1. With the work bowl on base, insert stem adapter. 2. Carefully place assembled Multifunctional Disc onto the stem adapter with the Cuisinart logo on the blade holder disc facing up. Note: Always use caution when handling the assembled Multifunctional Disc as the blade is very sharp. 3. Place the work bowl cover over the work bowl with the feed-tube assembly shifted slightly to the right of the handle. Once the cover is fully seated, rotate the cover clockwise to engage the cover-locking mechanism and interlock. To remove the cover, rotate it counterclockwise to disengage the interlock and locking mechanism. USING THE MULTIFUNCTIONAL DISC The Multifunctional Disc produces custom cuts when used with your Cuisinart Core Custom® Food Processor. To achieve the perfect cut -- and prevent damage to the blades and food processor -- it's important to always apply the correct amount of pressure when guiding food through the feed tube. When using the pusher never press down hard on the blade. For most foods, medium-firm pressure is ideal. The softer the food, the less pressure needed. As you continue to use the discs, you will get a better feel for the different amount of pressure required to yield the best results while protecting the unit. Note: The high speed setting is recommended for all foods and blade assemblies. · After prepping food for cutting, add it to the feed tube, making sure it fits the width without being too tightly packed. Excessive force shouldn't be needed to push food through, nor should food be so loose that it moves around freely inside the feed tube. · The julienne, french fry, and crinkle cut blades produce a variety of cuts for fruits and vegetables. Never press down hard on the blade. · When using the julienne, french fry, and crinkle-cut blade assemblies, apply medium to firm pressure to achieve the best results. Do not stack food more than two layers deep when using the julienne, french fry, and crinkle-cut blades. · The grating blade should be used for cheese. · When using the grating blade assembly, apply light to medium pressure to achieve the best results. Never press down hard on the blade. · When processing cheese with the grating blade assembly, always clean the underside of the assembled disc between uses. Clear food debris from the top and bottom of the disc/ blade assemblies between uses. If debris does not loosen easily, remove the entire disc and clean it carefully before reattaching and resuming use. 4 BLADE GUIDE Types of Cuts Julienne (3mm) Cut example: Cutting Tips Foods should lie in the feed tube horizontal to the disc. Always trim foods to fit snugly in the large feed tube. To achieve even cuts, do not stack food more than two layers deep and use medium to firm pressure when processing. Suggested Foods Carrots, parsnips, zucchini, eggplant, radishes, jicama, winter squash (peeled), potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, apples, pears. How to Serve This blade cuts food into the traditional matchstick cut. Use julienned vegetables in stir-fries, raw salads, roasted for tossing into pastas, or air-fried for crispy toppings to any dish. French Fry (5mm) Cut example: Foods should lie in the feed tube horizontal to the disc. Always trim foods to fit snugly in the large feed tube. To achieve even cuts, do not stack food more than two layers deep and use medium to firm pressure when processing. Russet potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, winter squash (peeled), jicama, yuca, zucchini, eggplant, parsnips, apples, pears. This blade cuts food into thin french-fry cuts. The obvious choice would be russet and sweet potatoes for french fries, but do not stop there. Use eggplant and zucchini for veggie "fries" in the AirFryer, or even apples or pears for a crunchy after-school snack. Crinkle Cut (3mm) Cut example: For crinkle-cut rounds, foods should stand in the feed tube vertical to the disc. For best results use the small or medium feed tube to keep foods upright. Use medium to firm pressure when processing. Cucumbers, radishes, carrots, medium to large pickles, potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams. Perfect cut for adding some flair to a veggie platter. Potatoes can be used in a gratin-style dish or fried/air-fried for a quick and tasty snack. Grating Disc Cut example: For the best results, apply light pressure. When grating garlic or ginger, drop items into the feed tube while the unit is running on high speed. Use the pusher to gently press food against the grating blade. Chocolate, ginger, garlic, hard cheeses (Parmesan, Asiago, Romano), cotija, crackers and crostini for flavored breadcrumbs, day-old or lightly toasted bread for plain breadcrumbs. Use chocolate as a garnish for espresso drinks and hot chocolate, or on top of a decadent dessert. Ginger and garlic when grated are perfect for working into bases of many dishes and sauces. Cheese always tastes better when freshly grated, whether mixed into fillings for baked pastas or used as a topping on tacos, burritos, or other dishes. 5 CLEANING, STORAGE, AND MAINTENANCE · Using the finger notch on the blade assembly, remove blade assembly from the blade holder disc before cleaning (finger notch not included on grating blade assembly). · All parts except the housing base of the food processor are dishwasher safe, and we recommend washing them in the dishwasher on the top rack only. Due to intense water heat, washing on the bottom rack may cause damage over time. Be sure to unload sharp blades and discs carefully from the dishwasher. · To simplify cleaning, rinse the blade holder disc, and blade assemblies immediately after use so food won't dry on them. · If you wash the Multifunctional Disc parts by hand, do so carefully. If necessary, use a brush. Do not leave them in soapy water where they may disappear from sight. FOR YOUR SAFETY Keep the disc and blade assemblies out of reach of children. Handle and store blades carefully. Their cutting edges are very sharp. Storing in the storage case is best. · Handle and store the blade assemblies carefully, using the provided storage case. 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 disc is pushed down on the stem adapter as far as it will go. · When using the Multifunctional Disc, always use the pusher. Never put your fingers or spatula into the feed tube. · Always wait for the 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 Multifunctional Disc. · Be careful to prevent the disc from falling out of the work bowl when emptying the bowl. Remove the stem adapter with disc before tilting the work bowl. TROUBLESHOOTING 1. Problem: Food is stuck in the blade. Solution: · Unplug unit and carefully remove the Multifunctional Disc from the unit. Holding the blade holder disc with the Cuisinart logo facing up, use a firm utensil, such as a fork or spatula, to push the food clockwise, away from the blade. This should dislodge the stuck food. 2. Problem: Pieces of food are not evenly cut. Solutions: · Pack food items to fill the width of the feed tube. · Use no more than two layers of food at a time when cutting food that is horizontal to the blade. Packing the feed tube too much will produce uneven cuts. · In most cases, use medium-firm pressure when processing fruits and vegetables. Be sure to use even pressure as needed to continuously feed food. 6 NOTES: 7 WARRANTY Limited 18-Month Warranty This warranty is available to only to U.S. consumers who purchase products directly from Cuisinart® or an authorized Cuisinart® reseller.
