Helpful Hints - KitchenAid ARTISAN 5KFPM770 Instrucciones Y Recetas

1. When cutting and packing food
items in the Ultra Wide Mouth
feed tube, do not exceed the
maximum fill line. This will permit
the pusher to engage the
interlock and the unit to operate.
2. Never process any food that is so
hard or firmly frozen that it
cannot be pierced with the tip of
a sharp knife. Hard food can
cause damage to the blade or
motor. If a piece of hard food,
such as carrot, becomes wedged
or stuck on the blade, stop the
processor and remove the blade.
Carefully remove food from the
blade.
3. Do not overfill work bowl or mini
bowl. For thin mixtures, fill work
bowl up to 1 ⁄ to
2
mixtures, fill work bowl up to
⁄ full. For liquids, fill up to the
3
4
maximum level as described on
page 12. When chopping, the
work bowl should be no more
than 1 ⁄ to 1 ⁄ full. Use the mini
3 2
bowl for up to 237 ml (1 cup) of
liquid or 63 g (
4. Position slicing discs so the cutting
surface is just to the right of the
feed tube. This allows the blade a
full rotation before contacting
the food.
5. To capitalize on the speed of the
processor, drop ingredients to be
chopped through the small feed
tube while the processor is
running.
6. Different foods require varying
degrees of pressure for best
shredding and slicing results. In
general, use light pressure for
soft, delicate foods (strawberries,
tomatoes, etc.), moderate
pressure for medium foods
(zucchini, potatoes, etc.), and
firmer pressure for harder foods
(carrots, apples, hard cheeses,
partially frozen meats, etc.).

7. Soft and medium-hard cheese
may spread out or roll up on the
shredding disc. To avoid this,
shred only well-chilled cheese.
8. Sometimes slender
foods, such as
carrots or celery, fall
over in the feed
tube, resulting in
an uneven slice. To
minimize this, cut
food in several pieces and pack
the feed tube with the food. For
processing small or slender items,
the small feed tube in the two
piece food pusher will prove
especially convenient.
9. When preparing a cake or cookie
batter or quick bread, use the
multipurpose blade to cream fat
and sugar first. Add dry
ingredients last. Place nuts and
fruit on top of flour mixture to
prevent overchopping. Process
nuts and fruits, using short
pulses, until blended with other
ingredients. Do not overprocess.
10. When shredded or sliced food
piles up on one side of the bowl,
stop the processor and
redistribute the food using a
spatula.
11. When food quantity reaches the
bottom of a slicing or shredding
disc, remove the food.
12. A few larger pieces of food may
remain on top of the disc after
slicing or shredding. If desired,
cut these by hand and add to
mixture.
13. Organize processing tasks to
minimize bowl cleanup. Process
dry or firm ingredients before
liquid ingredients.
14. To clean ingredients from the
multipurpose blade easily, just
empty the work bowl, replace
the lid, and pulse 1 to 2 seconds
to spin the blade clean.
