Care and Cleaning
• Keep the blade and discs out of the reach of
children.
• All parts except the housing base are
dishwasher safe, and we recommend
washing them in the dishwasher on
the top rack only. Due to intense water
heat, washing the work bowl, cover and
accessories on the bottom rack may cause
damage over time. Insert the cover with
the feed tube facing up to ensure proper
cleaning. Insert the work bowl and pusher
upside down for drainage. Remember to
unload the dishwasher carefully wherever
you have placed sharp blades and discs.
• To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl,
cover, pusher and blade or disc immediately
after use so food won't dry on them. Be
sure to position the pusher upside down
for drainage. If food lodges in the pusher,
remove it by running water through it, or
use a bottle brush. Be sure to rinse out the
underside of the removeable stem to prevent
any food lodging there.
• If you wash the blade and discs by hand,
do it carefully. Avoid leaving them in soapy
water where they may disappear from sight.
with soapy water, hold the blade by its plastic
center and move it rapidly up and down on
the center shaft of the bowl. Use of a spray
use a brush.
• The work bowl is made of SAN plastic. It
should not be placed in a microwave oven.
• The housing base may be wiped clean with a
soapy, nonabrasive material. Be sure to dry
it thoroughly.
• If the feet leave spots on the counter, spray
them with a spot remover and wipe with a
damp sponge.
• If any trace of the spot remains, repeat the
procedure and wipe the area with a damp
sponge and nonabrasive cleaning powder.

SAFETY
• Like all powerful electrical appliances a
food processor should be handled with
care. Follow these guidelines to protect
yourself and your family from misuse that
could cause injury.
• Handle and store metal blade and discs
carefully. Their cutting edges are very
sharp.
• Never put blade or discs on the motor
shaft until the work bowl is locked in place.
• Always be sure that the blade or disc is
down on the motor shaft as far as it will go.
• Always insert the metal blade in the work
bowl before putting ingredients in bowl.
• When slicing or shredding food, always
spatula into feed tube.
• Always wait for the blade or disc to stop
spinning before you remove the pusher
assembly or cover from the work bowl.
• Always unplug the unit before removing
parts.

mixing/dough blade.
