Always clean your Optimum Nutri Force Extractor after each use for hygiene purposes and to ensure its
longevity. Leaving food in the blender is a health risk as bacteria can grow. It can also cause your cups to
stain. Bacteria and residual food acids can also damage the seals and shaft of the blades.
TO CLEAN THE BASE:
1.
Switch off and unplug the blender from the power outlet.
2.
Using a soft, damp cloth, wipe the surface of the blender's base. You can use a mild detergent to
remove dried food if required.
3.
Use a dry soft cloth to thoroughly dry the blender.
TO CLEAN THE CUPS:
1.
After each use, rinse the cups thoroughly with warm soapy water (not hot).
2.
Place one or two drops of dish soap in your cups and fill them halfway with warm water.
3.
Secure the lid and mount on the base.
4.
Start the blender at LOW and slowly increase to HIGH speed.
5.
Run on HIGH for 10-60 seconds (depending on what was blended; thick contents take longer
to clean).
6.
Pour the contents out and rinse thoroughly.
7.
Turn the cup upside down and let air dry.
8.
The rubber seal sits within the Blade Base (refer to page 3), please ensure it remains in place
throughout the cleaning process.
FOR A DEEP CLEAN, PERFORM THE FOLLOWING STEPS MONTHLY OR AS NEEDED:
Place 2 cups of cool water and 2 cups of white vinegar into the cups and let them soak for between
12 and 24 hours. Pour the contents out and rinse thoroughly. Then follow the appropriate cleaning
instructions above.
