Care and Cleaning

Ensure that your food processor is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

Wipe the base and cord with a warm soapy cloth and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use any abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the housing as this will damage the finish. Wash the processing bowl, cover and all attachments (except motor base) in warm water using a mild detergent (or see dishwasher instructions below). Dry each part thoroughly before use.

2If using the Processing Blade, remove the Spindle with Processing Blade attached. Hold the Processing Blade by the plastic center only. With your other hand, depress the Processing Blade Locks inward while lifting up on the plastic center of the Processing Blade. See figure 16.

3If using one of the Processing Discs, remove first by grasping the center plastic section of the Disc (see figure 17). Lift straight up to remove, then remove center shaft.

4To remove the Work Bowl, grasp the handle and turn counter-clockwise to the 3 o’clock position and lift straight up.

Warning: Care must be taken when handling the metal blades as these items are extremely sharp.

Dishwasher Use

All plastic components deteriorate through the prolonged use of a dishwasher for cleaning. However all parts of your Food Processor are tolerant to dishwasher use, (excluding the processor body). If using the dishwasher place parts only on the top rack of your dishwasher.

Once your food processor and accessories have been cleaned and dried thoroughly, store your food processor as outlined in the section “Storing your Food Processor.”
