Cleaning
1. Before cleaning, be sure the unit is OFF and the cord is unplugged.
2. Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy
cleanup.
3. Wipe the Base and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Stubborn
spots can be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive
cleaner. Do not immerse the Base in liquid.
4. All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher.
• If washing by hand, wash in hot, sudsy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
If necessary, use a small nylon bristle brush to thoroughly clean the Bowl
and Food Chute/Cover; this type of brush will also help prevent cutting
yourself on the Chopping Blade and Slice/Shred Disc.
• If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on the top rack only -
not in or near the utensil basket.
5. Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.
6. Do not fill the Bowl with boiling water or place any of the parts in boiling
water. Some foods, such as carrots, may temporarily stain the Bowl. To
remove stains, make a paste of 1 tablespoon baking soda and two table-
spoons warm water. Apply the paste to the stains and rub with a cloth. Rinse
in sudsy water and dry.
7. Do not allow the Chopping Blade or Slice/Shred Disc to soak in water for long
periods of time.
Food Processing Tips
Liquids
• Hot liquids (not boiling) and hot foods can be processed in the Bowl.
• Be sure to process small amounts of liquids - 2 cups (480 ml) or less at a time.
Larger amounts may leak from the Bowl.
Food Size, Preparation and Loading
• Process dry ingredients first and moist ingredients later when using several
different foods in a recipe. This reduces the number of times the Bowl must
be washed and dried.
