6. CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
• When not in use, leave the appliance unplugged.
• All parts except the housing base are dishwasher safe. We recommend washing them in the
dishwasher on the top rack. Due to intense water heat, washing the work bowl, lid and accessories
on the bottom rack may cause damage over time. Insert the work bowl upside down.
• If you wash the blade by hand, wash with extreme care, the blade is very sharp. Do not leave it in
soapy water where it may disappear from sight.
• Take extra care when loading and unloading the blade in the dishwasher.
• To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, lid and blade immediately after use so food won't dry on
them.
• Chopping certain foods may scratch, cloud or discolour the work bowl.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners on the housing base. Simply wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
• Apply any cleaning agent to the cloth, not the housing base.
• Always ensure the blades have been thoroughly cleaned after each use and have dried completely
before storing.
