Cleaning care - how to maintain a food processor

1.  Always be extremely careful when putting the food processor together, taking it apart and washing it—the blades are very sharp.

2.  Gently wipe parts straight after use then pop washable parts on the top dishwasher rack, or wash in warm water with mild detergent. Never scrub with harsh cloths, and always wait until everything is completely dry before assembling and storing.

3.  Never put the base that has the motor inside in water—just wipe it clean with a damp cloth. Use a sponge with some mild detergent on it for stubborn stains.
