CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Keep your food processor ready to use on
a kitchen counter. When not in use, leave it
unplugged.
Store the blade and discs as you
would sharp knives, out of the reach of
children. The disc and blade holders are
optional accessories which offer safe and
convenient storage.
All parts except the housing base are
dishwasher safe, and we recommend
washing them in the dishwasher on the
top rack only.
Due to intense water heat, washing the
work bowl and work bowl cover on the
bottom rack of your dishwasher may cause
damage over time. Insert the work bowl
upside down. Remember to unload the
dishwasher carefully wherever you place the
sharp blade and discs.
To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl,
cover, pusher assembly and blade or disc
immediately after use, so food won’t dry on
them. Openings at the bottom of the large
pusher provide drainage and make cleaning
easy. If food lodges in the pusher, remove it
by running water through it, or use a bottle
brush.
If you wash the blade and discs by hand,
do it carefully. Avoid leaving them in soapy
water where they may disappear from sight.
To clean the metal blade, fill the work bowl
with soapy water, hold the blade by its plastic
center and move it rapidly up and down on
the center shaft of the bowl. Use of a spray
attachment is also effective. If necessary, use
a brush.
The work bowl is made of plastic, which
is shatter resistant and heat resistant. It
should not be placed in a microwave oven.
TIP: When preparing a meal, make the
dishes with the least amount of wet
ingredients first. For example, make the
bread first; then you don’t need to wash
the bowl before making the salad. In many
cases, wiping the bowl with a paper towel
between recipes is sufficient.
Chopping certain foods may scratch or
cloud the work bowl. These foods include
ice, whole spices, coffee beans and oils
like wintergreen. If you like to prepare your
own spice blends, you may want to keep a
second bowl just for that purpose.
The housing base is made of a tough
plastic with high-impact resistance. Its
smooth surface will look new for years.
Keep a sponge handy as you work, and
wipe spills from the base.
Four rubber feet on the underside keep
the base from moving on most work
surfaces when the machine is processing
heavy loads. If the feet leave spots on the
counter, spray them with a spot remover
and wipe with a damp sponge. If any trace
of the spot remains, repeat the procedure
and wipe the area with a damp sponge
and nonabrasive cleaning powder. Dry
completely.
To clean the inside of the detachable stem,
slide the stem release button on the side
up as far as it will go and hold it there as
you run water through the stem.
IMPORTANT: Never store the blade or disc
on the motor shaft. No blade or disc should
be placed on the shaft except when the
processor is about to be used.
Maintenance: Any other servicing should
be performed by an authorized service
representative.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Like all powerful electrical appliances, a
Premier Series 11-Cup Food Processor
should be handled with care. Follow these
guidelines to protect yourself and your
family from misuse that could cause injury.
Handle and store the metal blade and
discs carefully. Their cutting edges are very
sharp.
Always place discs on flat, stable surface
before connecting detachable stem.
Never put the blade or discs on the motor
shaft until the work bowl is locked in place.
Always be sure that the blade or disc is
down on motor shaft as far as it will go.
