A. Remove the sink stopper and turn on a medium flow of cold water.

B. Turn the switch to ON.

C. Scrape in food waste. To speed up food waste disposal, cut or break up large bones, rinds and cobs. Large bones and fibrous husks require considerable grinding time and are more easily thrown away with other trash. Do not be alarmed that the disposer slows down while grinding. The disposer is actually increasing torque (grinding power) and is operating under normal conditions.

D. Before turning the disposer off, let the water and the disposer run for approximately 25 seconds after shredding stops. This assures that

all waste is thoroughly flushed through the trap and drain.

E. Do not use hot water while running the disposer. Cold water will keep food waste and fats solid so they can be flushed down the drain.

A. Remove the sink stopper and turn on a medium flow of cold water.

B. Scrape in food waste.

C. Insert the stopper to start the disposer. One of the two small slots in the stopper base must line up with the switch plunger inside the neck of the disposer.

NOTE: The oval shaped handle aligns with the 2 small slots in the stopper.

Push down firmly to start.

D. Run the disposer for 25 seconds after shredding stops. This assures that all waste is thoroughly flushed through the trap and drain.

Lift the stopper to shut the disposer off.

E. To fill the sink, insert the stopper so that the largest slot lines up with the switch plunger. The stopper can now be pushed down to seal the sink without starting the disposer. When the medium-sized slot in the stopper base is lined up with the switch plunger, water can drain, but tableware, etc., cannot be accidentally dropped into the disposer.
