6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
All the pieces that can be removed from the unit may be washed
in water. They are also dishwasher safe.
Never immerse the housing base in water nor spray it with water.
Clean it using a damp sponge, cloth or household paper towel
only. When doing so, use washing up liquid, never use abrasive
cleaning products which could scratch the surface.
To make cleaning easier, always wash the unit immediately after
use. Vegetables and fruit will harden if you leave them to dry on
the appliance parts, which will make it more diffi cult to clean.
1. Make sure the extractor is unplugged.
2. Remove the parts of the extractor by following the dismantling
instructions (Section 3D).
First rinse in cold water. Then clean the pulp container, the juice
pitcher, the pusher, the lid and the fi lter in warm, soapy water or
place these parts in the dishwasher. Do not use metal brushes or
sponges.
CAUTION: Handle the fi lter with care when washing, because the
blades at the base of the basket are very sharp.
For more juice, always carefully clean the fi lter using the brush
provided. (See sketch.)
3. Dry all parts with a towel.
