CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Always clean the hand blender thoroughly after using.

Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

HAND BLENDER

Detach the charger handle from the motor body before cleaning. Remove the shaft with the blade from the motor body. The shaft with the blade can be cleaned by hand in hot water with a mild detergent. It is not necessary to remove the blade from the shaft. Do not use abrasive cleansers that could scratch the surface.

Clean the motor body and the charger handle with a sponge or damp cloth only. Do not use abrasive cleansers that could scratch the surface.

The mixing/measuring beaker can be cleaned in the dishwasher (upper rack) or by hand in hot water with a mild detergent.

Never immerse the motor body or charger handle in water.

CHOPPER/GRINDER ATTACHMENT

To simplify cleaning, rinse the prep bowl, cover and blade immediately after use, so that food won’t dry onto them. Wash blade ring, plastic sheath, and prep bowl in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry. Wipe the underside of the chopper/grinder cover with a sponge or damp cloth to remove any food. Do not submerge the cover in water or place in the dishwasher. Wash the blade carefully. Avoid leaving it in soapy water where it may disappear from sight.

If you have a dishwasher, you can wash the prep bowl and blade assembly on the upper shelf. Insert the prep bowl upside down. Put the blade in the cutlery basket. Unload the dishwasher carefully to avoid contact with the sharp blade. Wipe the top cover with a damp sponge or cloth. Dry it immediately.

The chopper/grinder attachment is intended for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. Any service, other than cleaning and normal user maintenance, should be performed by an authorized Cuisinart Service Representative.

WHISK ATTACHMENT

To clean your whisk attachment, simply release the attachment

from the motor body housing. Once the whisk is removed, detach the metal whisk from the gearbox by pulling pieces apart. To clean the gearbox, simply wipe with a damp cloth. To clean the metal whisk, wash with warm, soapy water or place in the dishwasher. Do not submerge the gearbox in water or any other liquid.
