THE UNIT SHOULD BE OFF EXCEPT WHEN
PROCESSING IS UNDERWAY. It is recommended
that the machine be operated on a 50% duty
cycle. This is easily accomplished since the
preparation time (cleaning, coring, peeling, and
loading) takes longer than the processing time.
This will increase the life of your machine.
When running frozen products in the bowl
attachment, the size of the product should not ex-
ceed 1 inch (2.5 cm).

OPERATION
W A R N I N G
As a precaution, always unplug your appliance
before cleaning it (risk of electrocution).
• MOTOR UNIT
Never immerse the motor unit in water. Clean it
with a damp cloth or sponge.
I M P O R T A N T
Check that your detergent is suitable for
cleaning plastic parts. Some washing agents
are too alkaline (e.g. high levels of caustic
soda or ammonia) and totally incompatible
with certain types of plastic, causing them to
deteriorate rapidly.
Cleaning of the motor base assembly must be done
with care.
First unplug the unit. A sponging with a cloth lightly
soaked (not dripping) in a mild detergent is accep-
table, making sure the water is not permitted to
penetrate the shaft seal or around the switches.
Clean around the shaft seal with a small brush,
taking care to remove all food. Do not forget to clean
the motor shaft. Rinse the motor base first using a
cloth lightly dampened (not dripping) with water,
then with a sanitizing solution, and dry the machine
with a soft cloth removing all liquids from seal areas.
WARNING: NEVER USE PURE BLEACH.
Always dilute the detergent following the instructions
given by the manufacturer.
Clean per the following instructions or as required by
local health department regulations.
