Cleaning and maintenance
I) Do not attempt to lubricate your disposer.
The motor is permanently lubricated. The disposer is self cleaning with each use.
NEVER put chemical drain cleaners into the disposer, as they cause serious corrosion
of metal parts. If used, resulting damage is easily detected and all warranties are
void. Mineral deposits from your water can form on the stainless steel turntable,
giving the appearance of rust. DO NOT BE ALARMED, the stainless steel turntables
used will not corrode and can be cleaned with specialist cleaner such as ‘Bar Keepers
Friend’.
II) How to use the Reset button.
Pull the plug out from the socket to cut off power source.
1.
If the blockage is caused by very hard objects such as metals, ceramics, nylon
2.
products and so on, use long tweezers to pick them up, if not use long wooden
objects, for example a wooden spoon, to move the cutter head to the right and
left.
Insert one end of a hex-key into the centre hole at the bottom of the machine
3.
and turn it to the right and left till it can revolve freely.
Press down the red reset button. When the motor is blocked by some objects, the
4.
Overload Protection System will trip to protect the motor. The Reset button will
pop up at once and the machine will stop automatically.
Insert the plug back into the socket to supply power again and the machine can
5.
be used normally.
Marks caused by deposits or scale on the cutter head are normal after use. The inner
components and surfaces of the food waste disposer is made up of corrosion-proof
materials.
