Key Features & Safety

Breville prioritizes safety in all its products. This appliance is designed with user safety in mind. Key safety precautions include handling sharp blades with care, ensuring proper assembly before operation, and never immersing the motor base in water. Always use the provided pushers to guide food into the chute and never force food by hand.

Components Overview

Familiarize yourself with the various components of your Sous Chef® 16 Peel & Dice, including the motor base, processing bowl, processing lid, various blades and discs (S-Blade™, dough blade, whisk/emulsifying disc, adjustable slicer, French fries cutter, julienne disc, reversible shredder, peeler disc, dicing disc), spindles, and accessories like spatulas and cleaning brushes. Each component plays a specific role in the food processing functions.

Assembly and Operation

Proper assembly is crucial for safe and effective operation. Ensure the processing bowl is securely locked onto the motor base. Select the appropriate blade or disc and spindle (if required) for your task. The feed chute safety system prevents operation unless all parts are correctly in place. Refer to the detailed assembly steps in the manual for specific attachments like the dicing kit.

Care and Cleaning

Maintain your Breville food processor by following the recommended care and cleaning instructions. Most attachments can be washed in warm, soapy water or are dishwasher safe. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure the appliance is unplugged and completely cool before cleaning.
