CLEANING
After removing the head of the vegetable preparation
machine, take off the disc, followed by the grid and
discharge plate where necessary.
Dishwashers are best avoided. Instead we recom-
mend that you clean the machine by hand using
washing-up liquid.
Never immerse the motor unit in water. Clean it
with a damp cloth or sponge.
As a precaution, always unplug your ap-
pliance before cleaning it (risk of electrocution).
WARNING
Check that your detergent is suitable for cleaning
plastic parts. Some washing agents are too alka-
line (e.g. high levels of caustic soda or ammonia)
and totally incompatible with certain types of plas-
tic, causing them to deteriorate rapidly.
IMPORTANT
