CLEANING THE OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES (MIXING, MINCING,
GRINDING)
WARNING:
The knives of the blade assemblies are very sharp.
Always
handle with care to avoid injuries and damage. Do not touch the knives with your
hands.
The glass containers (glass jugs and grinding cup) may crack easily,
when handled carelessly. Do not expose the glass containers to extreme tem-
perature variations to avoid cracking. Do not fill any hot liquid into the glass
containers of the appliance. Do not immerse the glass containers in hot liquids.
Otherwise, the glass could crack!
Do not use the glass containers any more, if
the glass is chipped, cracked or broken in any way.
CAUTION:
Do not fill more than 200ml dishwater into the mincing jug to avo-
id overflow at the lid. Immediately switch off the appliance, if liquid or froth run
out at the lid.
You may clean the lids, glass containers, and sealing rings in an automatic dish-
washer.
CAUTION:
For cleaning the glass containers in the automatic dishwasher,
always ensure that the glass containers can not touch any other objects of china,
glass, or stoneware crockery during operation of the dishwasher. Otherwise, the
parts could crack or get chipped.
USING THE SELF-CLEANING FEATURE
In many cases, the following cleaning method may be successful, when cleaning the
used processing system immediately after usage. If you have processed sticky food
containing a lot of hard fibres or tendons, some residues of food may cling to the
knives and stick at the rim of the sealing surfaces. If there are still residues sticking to
the surfaces, you should disassemble the processing system for cleaning (see: ‘Tho-
rough Cleaning and Removing Stubborn Residues’).
Important:
You need to disassemble the grinding system for taking out your
food and should clean the parts of the grinding system always separately (see:
‘Thorough Cleaning and Removing Stubborn Residues’). The following cleaning
method could lead to overpressure within the grinding cup and cause damage.
1. Immediately after usage, thoroughly rinse the interior of the used processing sys-
tem with lukewarm water.
2. Pour approx. 200ml lukewarm dishwater into the used glass jug (the knives should
be just covered). Close the lid. Leave the glass jug soak for approx. 10 minutes.
