THE PLASTIC CENTRE SECTION. DO NOT TOUCH THE
CUTTING EDGES.

the socket when not in use

anti-clockwise 90° to the 3 o'clock position, then lift
the bowl straight up

BLADE MAINTENANCE

ALWAYS TAKE EXTRA CARE WHEN HANDLING THE
BLADES.
Over time the chopping blades will become less sharp,
you can use a knife sharpener to give them a new lease
of life. But this does depend on the design of sharpener.

CLEANING AND CARE

It is important to clean the processor and all parts after
each use. This will prolong the life of your appliance.
