Never immerse this accessory in water to avoid penetration of water inside the accessory. Wash the other accessories right after use in hot water with a little detergent added, rinse it with clean water and wipe it till dry (you can also use a dishwasher). Be very careful when cleaning the mixer B and the sickle –shaped knife D2, the knives are very sharp.
- Make sure that the cutting edges of the knives are not in contact with hard objects that make them blunt and thus they reduce their effectiveness. Some food can colour the accessories in some way. But this does not affect the function of the appliance and it is not a reason for a claim. This colouring usually disappears in some time. Never dry plastic moldings over a heat source (e. g. heater, stove, radiator). Take care that the binding surfaces and the sealing elements are functional. Store the appliance after cleaning at a dry, dustfree and safe place, out of reach of children and incapacitated people.
