Cleaning and Care

Motor base

Wipe the motor base with a clean, damp cloth after each use. Dry thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth.

Processing bowl and lid

Hand wash in hot, soapy water using a mild detergent. Do not use a scourer or abrasive cleaners as they will scratch the plastic surface.

Lid seal

silicone seal

Your Breville ikon™ Food Processor is equipped with a silicone seal, located in a recess around the outer rim of the food processor bowl lid, to reduce leakage while processing larger volumes of wet ingredients. The silicon seal is removable for cleaning purposes. However, to ensure its effectiveness, the silicone seal must be inserted correctly.

Removing the seal

Pry the silicone seal out of the recess in which it is positioned, using your fingers or non marking, blunt implement such as the tip of the plastic spatula provided, and gently pull it over the lower edge of the lid. Once a section of the silicon seal has cleared the lower edge of the lid, it should come off with ease. Be careful not to over-stretch the silicon seal as this may damage or break it. Clean the silicon seal in warm water using a mild detergent, rinse and dry thoroughly.

Installing the seal

Step 1

To ensure the silicone seal is inserted properly, the ribbed side of the seal should sit against the bowl and the smooth side should face out.

Step 2

The smooth side of the seal has a thick and thin section. Ensure the thin section of the seal is sitting on top of the thick section. See diagram 1a

Step 3

Once positioned correctly, place a small section of the silicon seal into the recess it was removed from, then, holding the seal in position with one hand, gently stretch the remainder of the seal over the lower edge of the lid and into the recess. Ensure that the silicon seal aligns and sits wholly within the recess around the outer rim of the food processor bowl lid. See diagram 1.

Quad® processing blade, dough blade, discs and storage lid

Hand wash the storage lid. Use the double ended cleaning brush accessory to scrub stubborn food off blades and discs and for the inside of the processing blade central support. To avoid accidental cuts, do not leave Quad® processing blade or discs to soak in sudsy water. The Quad® processing blade, dough blade, discs and storage lid can also be washed in the dishwasher (top shelf only).

The small end of the double sided cleaning brush can be used for cleaning small crevices of the Quad® processing blade and dough blade shafts.

Food stains and odours

Foods such as carrot may leave a stain on plastic parts whilst other foods such as garlic may leave a strong odour. To remove either, soak the parts for 5 minutes in 2 litres of water with ½ cup lemon juice added. Rinse and wash as normal.
