Troubleshooting
• If your Food Processor should
fail to operate, check the
following:
– Make sure the work bowl and work
bowl cover are properly locked on
the base, and the food pusher is
inserted to the maximum fill line on
the feed tube.
– See if the power cord is plugged
into a proper electrical outlet
(see “Electrical Requirements” on
page 5). If it is, unplug the Food
Processor, then plug it into the
same outlet again. If the Food
Processor still does not work, check
the fuse or circuit breaker on the
electrical circuit the Food Processor
is connected to and make sure the
circuit is closed.
• If the Food Processor shuts off
while it is running:
– The Food Processor may be
overheated. If the motor exceeds a
certain temperature, it will
automatically shut off to prevent
damage. This should be an
extremely rare occurrence. If it
happens, press the Off Button and
wait 15 minutes for the Food
Processor to cool before resuming.
If the Food Processor still refuses to
run, wait an additional 15 minutes
for the Food Processor to cool.
• If you have difficulty removing
the food pusher from the
feed tube:
–Food particles are probably lodged
in the interlock system. To free the
pusher, soak the work bowl cover in
warm water or wash it in a
dishwasher.
If the problem cannot be corrected
with the steps in this section, see the
KitchenAid Warranty and Service
section on pages 57-58. Do not
return the Food Processor to the
retailer – they do not provide service.
