ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
Before first use
Remove any packaging material and promotional labels. Remove the blending leg and wash it in warm soapy water (refer to assembly instructions in this booklet). Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Ensure no water remains inside the blending leg to avoid water running into the motor body when reattached. Disassemble and wash the food processor bowl, bowl lid (ensure that the removable gear box has been removed from the lid prior to washing), whisk, quad blade, variable masher leg and variable slicing disc in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Ensure no water remains in the food processor bowl lid or whisk attachment to avoid water running into the motor body when reattached.
NOTE
The detachable blending leg, chopping bowl (without the gearbox), quad blade, variable masher, whisk can also be washed in the dishwasher. The whisk gear box, processor gear box, masher gear box and motor body are not dishwasher safe – see the care and cleaning section of this booklet for cleaning instructions of these parts.
