To assemble the Cuisinart BFM STOR, start by attaching the bowl to the base. Ensure it clicks into place. Then, position the blade inside the bowl. Finally, secure the lid, making sure it is properly aligned and locked.
First, check if the appliance is plugged in and the outlet is functional. Ensure that the bowl, lid, and blade are correctly assembled and locked into place. The unit will not operate unless everything is properly aligned.
Disassemble the unit by removing the bowl, lid, and blade. Wash all removable parts in warm, soapy water or place them in the dishwasher's top rack. Wipe the base with a damp cloth. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling.
Store the Cuisinart BFM STOR in a cool, dry place. Ensure that the unit is clean and dry before storing. It is advisable to keep all parts assembled to prevent any components from being misplaced.
To minimize food sticking, ensure that the bowl and blade are clean and dry before use. Lightly coat the bowl and blade with a small amount of cooking oil before processing sticky ingredients.
If the motor is unusually loud, ensure that the appliance is on a stable, flat surface. Check that the bowl, blade, and lid are correctly assembled. Inspect the blade for any signs of damage or wear that might be causing noise.
The Cuisinart BFM STOR is not designed for crushing ice. Using it for this purpose may damage the blades and motor. Consider using a blender designed for crushing ice.
Ensure that the ingredients are cut into smaller, even-sized pieces before processing. Avoid overfilling the bowl, as this can impede the blade's movement. Consider pulsing the unit to achieve a more consistent blend.
Regularly check the blade for sharpness and inspect for any signs of damage or wear. Clean the appliance thoroughly after each use and ensure all parts are dry before storing. Periodically check the power cord for damage.
Allow hot foods to cool slightly before processing to prevent damage to the bowl and to avoid burns from steam. Ensure the lid is securely locked to prevent spills.
