CLEANING
1. Before cleaning, be sure the unit is switched off and the cord is unplugged.
2. Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy cleanup.
3. Wipe the base, control knob, and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Stubborn spots can be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild, non-
abrasive cleaner. Do not immerse the base in liquid.
4. All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher, top rack.
• If washing by hand, wash in hot, sudsy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. If
necessary, use a small nylon bristle brush to thoroughly clean the bowl and food
chute/cover, this type of brush will also help prevent cutting yourself on the
chopping blade and slice/shred disc.
• If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on the top rack only-not in or
near the utensil basket.
5. Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.
6. Do not fill the bowl with boiling water or place any of the parts in boiling water.
Some foods, such as carrots, may temporarily stain the bowl. To remove stains,
make a paste of 2 tablespoons (30ml) baking soda and 1 tablespoon (15ml) warm
water. Apply the paste to the stains and rub with a cloth. Rinse in sudsy water and dry.
