CLEANING THE BLENDER
Always ensure that the power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet before cleaning, disassembling or assembling and storing the appliance. Pull the Safety Locking Arm downwards and over the grooves on either side of the Blender Jug base.
1.Immediately after each use, wash the Lid, Inner Lid, Blender Jug, Removable Silicone Gasket and Removable Blade Assembly (see Disassembling the Blender, page 37) in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth. To remove strong odors, for example, from garlic, fish and some vegetables, soak the disassembled parts for 10 minutes in warm soapy water. Then wash with a mild detergent and a cleaning brush. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Alternatively:
•Immediately fill the Blender Jug halfway with warm (not hot) water and add
OR
•Immediately place these parts in the dishwasher on a normal cycle. Remove the Blade Assembly with the Silicone Gasket still in place, from the Blender Jug. Disassemble the Silicone Gasket from the Blade Assembly and place both parts on the top shelf of the dishwasher with the Lid and Inner Lid. The Blender Jug should be turned upside down (with the jug spout facing downwards) to prevent the dishwasher’s heating element from damaging the Blender Jug base.
WARNING
Be careful when handling the blending blades as they are sharp. Mishandling of the blades may cause injury.
2.Wipe the Motor base with a soft damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners when cleaning the Motor Base as these may scratch the surface. Wipe any excess food particles from the power cord.
