WARNING! Improper grounding can result in electric shock hazard. Connect white wire from disposer to neutral (white) wire from power source and black wire from disposer to hot (black, red) wire from power source with wire nuts (not included); ground wire to green grounding screw. Unit must be grounded for safe and proper installation -
Push wires into disposer (do not displace cardboard shield) and replace electrical cover plate. -

CAUTION: Do not position your head or body under disposer; unit could fall during removal or installation. Hang disposer by aligning 3 mounting tabs with slide-up ramps on mounting ring. -
Turn mounting ring until all 3 mounting tabs lock over the ridges on the slide-up ramps. -
You may need to trim tube for proper fit. Reconnect plumbing (and dishwasher connection if used). Make sure
Anti-Vibration Tailpipe Mount™ is straight. -
Insert Quiet Collar® Sink Baffle into sink opening. Fill sink with water, then test for leaks.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
- Remove stopper from sink opening and run cold water.
- Turn on wall switch to start disposer.
- Slowly insert food waste into disposer. WARNING! Position stopper to minimize possible ejection of material while grinding.
- After grinding is complete, turn disposer off and run water for a few seconds to flush drain line.
DO…
- First turn on cold water and then turn on the disposer. Continue running cold water for several seconds after grinding is completed to flush the drain line.
- Grind hard materials such as small bones, fruit pits, and ice. A scouring action is created by the particles inside the grind chamber.
- Grind peelings from citrus fruits to freshen up drain smells.
- Use a disposer cleaner, degreaser, or deodorizer as necessary to relieve objectionable odors caused by grease build-up.
DON’T…
- DON’T POUR GREASE OR FAT DOWN YOUR DISPOSER OR ANY DRAIN. IT CAN BUILD UP IN PIPES AND CAUSE DRAIN BLOCKAGES. PUT GREASE IN A JAR OR CAN AND DISPOSE IN THE TRASH.
- Don’t use hot water when grinding food waste. It is OK to drain hot water into the disposer between grinding periods.
- Don’t fill disposer with a lot of vegetable peels all at once. Instead, turn the water and disposer on first and then feed the peels in gradually.
- Don’t grind large amounts of egg shells or fibrous materials like corn husks, artichokes, etc., to avoid possible drain blockage.
- Don’t turn off disposer until grinding is completed and only sound of motor and water is heard.
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING DISPOSER
Over time, food particles may accumulate in the grind chamber and baffle. An
odor from the disposer is usually a sign of food buildup. To clean disposer:
- Place stopper in sink opening and fill sink halfway with warm water.
- Mix 1/4 cup baking soda with water. Turn disposer on and remove stopper from sink at same time to wash away loose particles.
- Remove Quiet Collar® Sink Baffle and clean by hand or in dishwasher. Do not operate disposer without Quiet Collar® Sink Baffle in place.
Disposers may also be cleaned with Disposer Care®. This product is not sold by InSinkErator®, but is generally available in major home centers, hardware, and grocery stores. For more information on Disposer Care®, contact Summit Brands at 1-888-476-6688 or www.summitbrands.com.
RELEASING DISPOSER JAM
If motor stops while disposer is operating, disposer may be jammed. To release jam:
- Turn off disposer and water.
- Insert one end of self-service Jam-Buster™ Wrench into center hole on bottom of disposer (see Figure A). Work Jam-Buster™ Wrench back and forth until it turns one full revolution. Remove Jam-Buster™ Wrench.
- Reach into disposer with tongs and remove object(s). Allow disposer motor to cool for 3 – 5 minutes, then lightly push red reset button on disposer bottom (see Figure B). (If motor remains inoperative, check service panel for tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses.)
