CARE AND CLEANING
NOTE: Do not attempt to sharpen the cutting edges of the chopping blade or the
reversible disc. They are permanently sharpened tat the factory and will be ruined by
attempted sharpening.
Before cleaning, turn the control knob to OFF and unplug the cord to food processor
Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing for easy cleanup
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.
All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher in the top rack. Do not
put in or near the utensil basket.
If washing removable parts by hand, wash in hot, sudsy water, fines and dry thoroughly
If necessary use a small nylon bristle brush to thoroughly clean the bowl and bowl
cover. This type of brush will also help prevent cutting yourself on the chopping blade
and slicing/shredding disc.
Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal parts.
Do not fill the bowl with boiling water or place any of the parts in boiling water
Some food, such as carrots, may temporarily stain the bowl. To remove stains, make a
paste of 2 tablespoons baking soda and 1 tablespoon warm water. Apply the paste to
the stains and rub with a cloth. Rinse and day.
Four rubber feet on the underside keep the base from moving on most work surfaces
when the machine is processing heavy loads. If the feet leave spots on the counter,
spray them with a spot remover and wipe with a damp sponge. If any trace of the spot
remains, repeat the procedure and wipe the area with a damp sponge and nonabrasive
cleaning powder.
IMPORTANT: Never store any blade or disc on the motor shaft. No blade of disc should
be placed on the shaft except when the processor is about to be used.
