TO REMOVE PREP BOWL
1. Turn the work bowl cover clockwise and
remove.
2. Turn the work bowl clockwise to unlock
and lift off of the base.
3. Carefully remove the blade by lifting it up
from the hub.
CLEANING AND STORAGE
To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, cover,
and blade immediately after each use, so that
food won’t dry on them. Wash blade assembly,
work bowl, cover, and spatula in warm soapy
water. Rinse and dry. Wash the blade carefully.
Avoid leaving blade in soapy water where it may
disappear from sight. If you have a dishwasher,
you can wash the work bowl, cover, blade
assembly, and spatula on the top rack. Insert
the work bowl upside down and the cover right
side up. Put the blade and spatula in the cutlery
basket. unload the dishwasher carefully to avoid
contact with the sharp blade. Wipe the motor
base clean with a damp sponge or cloth. dry it
immediately. never submerge the motor base or
the plug in water or other liquid.
The Mini-Prep
®
Plus Processor stores neatly on
the countertop in a minimum of space. When it
is not in use, be sure to leave it unplugged. The
hidden cord storage underneath the motor base
will help to keep excess cord off the counter-
top. Store the unit assembled to prevent loss
of parts. Store the blades as you would sharp
knives – out of the reach of children.
