The Anti-Jam Swivel Impellers make a clicking sound as they initially swing into place. This 

indicates normal operation.

 

› Remove sink stopper. Turn on a medium flow of cold water.

 

› Turn switch to ON position; your motor is turning at full speed and ready to use.

 

›  Scrape in food waste, such as scraps, peelings, rinds, seeds, pits, small bones and coffee 

grounds. To speed up food waste disposal, cut or break up large bones, rinds and cobs. Large 
bones and fibrous waste require considerable grinding time and are more easily thrown away 
with other trash. Do not be alarmed that the disposer slows down while grinding. The disposer 
is actually increasing torque (grinding power) and is operating under normal conditions.

 

›  Before turning disposer off, let water and disposer run for approximately 15 seconds after 

shredding or grinding stops. This assures that all waste is thoroughly flushed through trap and 
drain.

 

›  It is not recommended to use hot water while running disposer. Cold water will keep waste and 

fats solid so disposer can flush away particles.

› Be sure disposer is empty before using your dishwasher so it may drain properly.

 

›  You may want to leave the stopper in the drain when not in use to prevent utensils and foreign 

objects from falling into the disposer.

 

›  Your disposer is ruggedly built to give you many years of trouble free service. It will handle all 

normal food wastes, but it will NOT grind or dispose of such items as plastic, tin cans, bottle 
caps, glass, china, leather, cloth, rubber, string, clams and oyster shells, aluminium foil  
or feathers.
