Figure A Figure B
1. Remove stopper from sink opening and run strong flow of cold water.
2. Turn on wall switch to start disposer.
3. Slowly insert food waste into disposer. CAUTION! Position stopper to minimize possible ejection of material while grinding.
4. After grinding is complete, turn disposer off and run water for a few seconds to flush drain line.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DO...
• First turn on a moderate to strong flow of cold water and then turn
on the disposer. Continue running cold water for a few
seconds after grinding is completed to flush the drain line.
• Grind hard materials such as small bones, fruit pits, and ice.
A scouring action is created by the particles inside the grind
chamber.
• Grind peelings from citrus fruits to freshen up drain smells.
• Use a disposer cleaner, degreaser, or deodorizer as necessary to
relieve objectionable odors caused by grease build-up.
DON'T...
• Pour grease or fat down your disposer or any drain. It can build
up in pipes and cause drain blockages. Put grease in a jar or can
and dispose in the trash.
• Use hot water when grinding food waste. It is OK to drain hot
water into the disposer between grinding periods.
• Fill disposer with a lot of vegetable peels all at once. Instead,
turn the water and disposer on first and then feed the peels in
gradually.
• Grind large amounts of egg shells or fibrous materials like corn
husks, artichokes, etc., to avoid possible drain blockage.
• Turn off disposer until grinding is completed and only sound of
motor and water is heard.
CAUTION
Regularly inspect disposer and plumbing fittings for water leaks, as
water leaks can cause property damage. Manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for property damage as a result of water leaks.
USER-MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING DISPOSER
Over time, food particles may accumulate in the grind chamber and baffle. An odor from the disposer is usually a sign of grease and food
buildup, caused by insufficient water flow during and after disposer use. To clean disposer:
1. Turn off disposer and disconnect power supply.
2. Place stopper in sink opening and fill sink halfway with warm water.
3. Mix 1/4 cup baking soda with water. Turn disposer on and remove stopper from sink at same time to wash away loose particles.
4. Remove Quiet Collar® Sink Baffle and clean by hand or in dishwasher. Do not operate disposer without Quiet Collar® Sink Baffle in place.
Disposers may also be cleaned with Disposer Care®. This product is not sold by InSinkErator®, but is generally available in major
home centers, hardware, and grocery stores. For more information on Disposer Care®, contact Summit Brands at 1-888-476-6688 or
www.summitbrands.com.
RELEASING DISPOSER JAM
If motor stops while disposer is operating, disposer may be jammed. To release jam:
1. Turn off disposer and water.
2. Insert one end of self-service Jam-Buster™ Wrench into center hole on bottom of disposer (see Figure A). Work Jam-Buster™ Wrench back
and forth until it turns one full revolution. Remove Jam-Buster™ Wrench.
3. Reach into disposer with tongs and remove object(s). Allow disposer motor to cool for 3 - 5 minutes, then lightly push red reset button on
disposer bottom (see Figure B). (If motor remains inoperative, check service panel for tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses.)
