Care and Cleaning
This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service
personnel.
Note:
Do not attempt to sharpen the cutting edges of the blades or disc. They are
permanently sharpened at the factory and will be ruined by attempted sharpening.
CARE AND CLEANING
Note:
Before cleaning, be sure unit is turned off and cord is unplugged.
• Completely disassemble processor parts before washing.
• Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy cleanup.
• Wipe base and feet with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Stubborn spots can
be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth and a mild, nonabrasive cleaner.
Do not immerse base in liquid.
• All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher. Hand washing
of plastic parts will help to maintain the processor’s appearance.
• If washing by hand, fill workbowl with hot soapy water and rapidly raise and
lower the cutting blade and discs up and down on the center shaft.
• If your sink has a sprayer nozzle, you will find it helpful in rinsing the blades.
• If washing in a dishwasher, place removable parts on top rack only – not in or
near utensil basket.
• Some staining of parts may occur. Make a paste of 2 tablespoons baking soda /
1 tablespoon water. Apply to stains and let stand overnight. Rinse and dry.
• Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.
• Do not allow blades or discs to soak in water for long periods of time.
• Remove the workbowl cover and blade. Invert an empty 35-mm film canister
over the hole in the workbowl. Fill with hot, soapy water and allow to soak.
• Remember to clean the internal shaft of the chopping blade; use a baby bottle
brush to remove any clogged food particles.
• If you are having trouble closing the cover over the workbowl, apply a small
amount of vegetable oil to the rim of the cover and workbowl. This should
make the pieces work smoother when attaching the cover to the bowl.
