Can this food processor crush ice?

Does it come with recipes?

Troubleshooting
The food processor does not turn on or operate.
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Verify that the bowl is correctly seated on the motor base and the lid is fully locked into place. The unit has safety interlocks that prevent operation if not assembled correctly.
Food is not processing evenly or leaving large chunks.
Reduce the amount of food in the bowl; overfilling can hinder even processing. For tougher ingredients, cut them into smaller, more uniform pieces before adding. Use the pulse function in short bursts for better control over consistency.
The lid is difficult to lock or remove.
Ensure the bowl is properly aligned on the motor base. Check for any food debris around the rim of the bowl or lid that might be obstructing the locking mechanism. Apply gentle pressure and rotate to lock/unlock.
Dough is not mixing or kneading properly.
Ensure you are using the dedicated `Dough Tool`. Check the recipe for appropriate liquid-to-dry ingredient ratios; excessively dry or wet dough can affect mixing. Process for the recommended time, using the 'Mix' Auto-iQ program or manual settings as needed.
The motor seems to be overheating.
If the unit stops unexpectedly, it may have engaged its thermal protection. Unplug the unit and allow it to cool down for at least 15-30 minutes before attempting to use it again. Avoid continuous operation beyond recommended times for very dense ingredients.
