CLEANING AND STORAGE

Keep your food processor ready to use on a kitchen counter. When not in use, leave it unplugged.

Store the blades and discs as you would sharp knives, out of the reach of children. The disc and blade holders are optional accessories which offer safe and convenient storage.

All parts except the housing base are dishwasher safe, and we recommend wash- ing them in the dishwasher on the top rack only.

Due to intense water heat, washing the work bowl and work bowl cover on the bottom rack of your dish- washer may cause damage over time. Insert the work bowl upside down. Remember to unload the dishwasher carefully wher- ever you place sharp blades and discs.

To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, cover, pusher assembly and blade or disc immediately after use, so food won’t dry on them. Openings at the bottom of the large pusher provide drainage and make cleaning easy. If food lodges in the pusher, remove it by running water through it, or use

a bottle brush.

If you wash blades and discs by hand, do it carefully. Avoid leaving them in soapy water where they may disap- pear from sight. To clean the metal blade, fill the work bowl with soapy water, hold the blade by its plastic center and move it rapidly up and down on the center shaft of the bowl. Use of a spray attachment is also effective. If necessary, use a brush.

The work bowl is made of Lexan® (plastic), which is shatter resistant and heat resistant. It should not be placed in a microwave oven, as the aperture at the front of the pusher houses the metal rod that activates the motor.

TIP:

When preparing a meal, make the dishes with the least amount of wet ingredients first. For example, make the bread first; then you don’t need to wash the bowl before

making the salad. In many cases, wiping the bowl with a paper towel between recipes is sufficient.

Chopping certain foods may scratch or cloud the work bowl. These foods include ice, whole spices, coffee beans and oils like wintergreen. If you like to prepare your own spice blends, you may want to keep a second bowl just for that purpose.

The housing base is made of a tough plastic with high impact resistance. Its smooth surface will look new for years. Keep a sponge handy as you work, and wipe spills from the base.

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 proce- dure and wipe the area with a damp sponge and nonabrasive cleaning pow- der. Dry completely.

To clean the inside of the detachable stem, slide the stem release button on the side up as far as it will go and hold it there as you run water through the stem.

IMPORTANT:

Never store any blade or disc on the motor shaft. No blade or disc should be placed on the shaft except when the processor is about to be used.
