Additional information for cleaning

NOTICE
The contact pins of the mixing bowl can corrode
Ensure that you thoroughly dry the contact pins of the mixing bowl after
cleaning the mixing bowl, so no moisture can enter the Thermomix™ via
the contact pins.
Some of the plastic parts may become slightly discolored, but this does not
affect your health or how the parts function.
Depending on the food you prepared and the level of soiling it may be
sufficient to perform a short mixing operation to clean the mixing bowl and
knife. Place approx. 4 cups (1 liter) of water and a few drops of dishwashing
liquid into the mixing bowl, select speed 5 or 6 and tap on the reverse icon
several times. Follow this operation by thoroughly rinsing with water and
if necessary use a soft cloth as well.
To improve ventilation during storage, leave the measuring cup off the mixing
bowl lid.
