CLEANING, STORAGE,
AND MAINTENANCE OF
YOUR GOODFUL

BLENDER/
FOOD PROCESSOR
Always unplug your Goodful
™
by Cuisinart
®
Blender/Food Processor from the electrical
outlet before cleaning. The blender is made of
corrosion-resistant parts that are easy to clean.
Before first use and after every use, clean each
part thoroughly. Periodically check all parts
before reassembly. If any part is damaged or
blender jar is chipped or cracked, DO NOT USE
BLENDER/FOOD PROCESSOR.
Remove the blender jar from the motor base
by lifting straight up and away. Remove blade
assembly by turning counterclockwise.
Wash in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry
thoroughly.
CAUTION:
Handle the blade assembly carefully. It
is SHARP and may cause injury. Do not attempt to
remove blades from assembly.
Remove the blender jar cover and the measured
pour lid. Wash in warm, soapy water; rinse
and dry thoroughly or place in upper rack of
dishwasher. The blender jar must be washed
in warm, soapy water and rinsed and dried
thoroughly. The blender jar can also be placed
upside down in dishwasher.
Finally, wipe the motor base clean with a damp
cloth to remove any residue and dry thoroughly.
Never submerge the motor base in water or other
liquids, or place in a dishwasher.
Tip:
You may wish to clean your blender blade
assembly as follows: Squirt a small amount of
dishwashing liquid into assembled blender jar and
fill halfway with warm water. Run on LOW for 15
seconds. Repeat, using clean tap water. Rinse
and dry all parts thoroughly.
Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
Store the chopping blade and slicing/shredding
disc as you would sharp knives – out of reach of
children.
The work bowl, cover, pusher, chopping
blade and slicing/shredding disc are top-shelf
dishwasher safe. When placing parts in your
dishwasher, insert the work bowl upside down.
Remember where you place the sharp blade and
disc, and be certain to unload the dishwasher
carefully.
The gearbox collar is not immersible. To clean,
just wipe with a damp cloth. If you wash the blade
and disc by hand, do it carefully. Avoid leaving
them in soapy water where they may disappear
from sight. To clean the metal blade, fill the work
bowl with soapy water, hold the blade by its
plastic center and move rapidly up and down on
the center shaft of the bowl. Use of a spray hose
is also effective. If necessary, use a brush.
The work bowl should not be placed in a
microwave oven.
DOS & DON’TS
WHEN USING YOUR
BLENDER
DO:
• Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the
same voltage as that stated on the bottom of
the motor base.
• Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and
dry surface.
•
Always add liquid ingredients to the
blender jar first, then add remaining
ingredients. This will ensure that
ingredients are uniformly mixed.
• Cut most foods into cubes approximately 1
inch (2.5cm) to achieve a more uniform result.
Cut all cheeses into pieces no larger than ½
inch (1.3cm).
• Use the measured pour lid to measure
liquid ingredients such as alcohol. Replace
measured pour lid after ingredients have been
added.
• Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed,
only when the blender is turned off.
Never
use metal utensils, as damage may occur to
the blender jar or blade assembly.
• Place cover on firmly. Always operate the
blender with the cover on.
• Make sure removable blade assembly is
tightly attached to blender jar.
• Always remove blade assembly before
cleaning.
• When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion,
zest, breadcrumbs, nuts, etc., make sure
the blender jar and blade assembly are
completely dry.
• If food tends to stick to the sides of the
blender jar when blending, pulse in short
bursts.
• Pulses should be short bursts. Space the
pulses so the blades stop rotating between
pulses, about 1–2 seconds.

continue.
