CLEANING DISPOSER

Over time, food particles may accumulate in the grind chamber and baffle. An odor from the disposer is usually a sign of grease and food buildup, caused by insufficient water flow during and after disposer use. To clean dis- poser:

1.Turn off disposer and disconnect power supply.

2.Place stopper in sink opening and fill sink halfway with warm water.

3.Mix 1/4 cup baking soda with water. Turn disposer on and remove stopper from sink at same time to wash away loose particles.

4.Remove Quiet Collar Sink Baffle and clean by hand or in dishwasher. Do not operate disposer without Quiet Collar Sink Baffle in place.

Disposers may also be cleaned with Disposer Care®. This product is not sold by InSinkErator, but is generally avail- able in major home centers, hardware, and grocery stores. For more information on Disposer Care®, contact Iron Out, Inc. at 1-800-654-0791 or www.ironout.com.
