TIPS FOR PROCESSING FOOD Preparing the Food Size Always cut large pieces of food into smaller pieces of even size – about 1⁄2 inch (12mm) to a side or as specified under "Operating Techniques" on page 4. If you don't start with pieces that are small and uniform, you will not get an even chop. Quantity Do not overload the work bowl. Overloading causes inconsistent results and it strains the motor. Use the quantities given in the recipe section as a guide.
TO REMOVE PREP BOWL 1. Turn the work bowl cover clockwise and remove. 2. Turn the work bowl clockwise to unlock and lift off of the base. 3. Carefully remove the blade by lifting it up from the hub. The Mini-Prep® Plus Processor is intended for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. Any service other than cleaning and normal user maintenance should be performed by an authorized Cuisinart Service Representative.
