Note:
For non-rewireable plugs the fuse cover MUST be refitted when
replacing the fuse. If the fuse cover is lost then the plug must not
be used until a replacement can be obtained. The correct fuse
cover is identified by colour and a replacement may be obtained
from your Kenwood Authorised Repairer (see Service).
If a non-rewireable plug is cut off it must be DESTROYED
IMMEDIATELY. An electric shock hazard may arise if an
unwanted non-rewireable plug is inadvertently inserted into a

Raw meat
Make ‘mince’ by trimming raw meat of any excess fat and
cutting into 2cm/ ⁄4in cubes, place into the bowl and operate for
approximately 10 seconds or until the desired texture is
achieved. The longer you run the machine the smoother the
texture will be.
Use for egg whites and cream only. The whisk is unsuitable for
other recipes. Make sure the bowl and whisk are free from any
traces of grease or egg yolk when whisking egg whites.

Cooked meat
what the cutting plates can do.
Follow the method for raw meat but process for a shorter time.
slicing plate - slices carrots, potato, cabbage, cucumber,
courgette, beetroot, onion.
shredding plate - grates cheese, carrot, potato and foods of a
similar texture.
Vegetables
Cut the vegetables into pieces approximately 2.5cm/1in in size.
Process foods having a similar texture together eg harder
vegetables like carrots and potatoes or softer ones like
mushrooms, tomatoes or cooked vegetables.
to assemble the plate carrier
1 Select the desired plate and fit into the carrier with the cutting
side uppermost.
Biscuit and breadcrumbs
Drop pieces down the feed tube whilst the machine is operating.

Don’t cut food up too small. Fill the feed tube fairly full, this
prevents food from slipping sideways during processing.
When slicing or shredding: food placed upright comes out
shorter than food placed horizontally.
After using a cutting plate there will always be a small amount of
waste on the plate or in the food.
Do not allow food to build up to the underside of the plate -
empty regularly.
Push food down the feed tube using an even pressure.

DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC.
At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as
urban waste.
It must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste
collection centre or to a dealer providing this service.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible
negative consequences for the environment and health deriving
from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials
to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and
resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household
appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out
wheeled dustbin.
maxi blend canopy
When blending, use the maxi blend canopy in conjunction with
the knife blade. It allows you to increase the liquid processing
capacity of the bowl and improve the chopping performance of
the blade.
1 Place the canopy into the bowl over the knife blade - do not
push down ᕥ.
2 Fit the lid ᕦ

Crumble into the bowl with the flour.
other types of yeast
Follow the manufacturers instructions.
With the knife blade in the bowl, add the flour, salt, lard (fresh
yeast if used) and process for a few seconds to evenly distribute
the ingredients throughout the flour. With the machine operating,
quickly pour the water or yeast liquid in a steady stream through
the feed tube (this should take about 10 seconds). Continue
processing until the mixture forms a dough and becomes
smooth in appearance and elastic to the touch, this will take
about 45 seconds. Remove the dough into either a greased
polythene bag or a lightly floured bowl and cover. Leave this
dough in a warm place until doubled in size. Return the risen
dough to the processor bowl fitted with the knife blade and re-
knead for about 10 seconds. Shape the dough into a loaf or
about 15 rolls and place on greased baking trays and leave until
double in size. Bake at 230°C/450°F/gas mark 8 for 20-25
minutes for a loaf or 10-15 minutes for bread rolls. When the loaf
or rolls are cooked they should sound hollow when tapped on
the base.
