DISASSEMBLING THE MIXING BOWL
If you want to clean the mixing knife and mixing bowl thoroughly, you must
disassemble the mixing bowl.
Proceed as follows:
1. Hold the mixing bowl so that the opening points upwards.
2. Turn the mixing bowl base 30 degrees clockwise away from the handle and
pull the mixing bowl base off downwards. This may be stiff to begin with.
The mixing knife will remain in the mixing bowl.
3. Carefully take hold of the mixing knife above the blades and remove it,
together with its sealing ring, from the mixing bowl.
