Care, Cleaning
& Storage
Keeping your FoodCycler clean will help
ensure that your FoodCycler performs
cleanly and efficiently. Both the exterior of the
FoodCycler and the removable bucket should
be cleaned regularly.
NOTE
Before starting to operate your FoodCycler for
each time, clean the bottom of the grinding
bucket and the surface of the heating plate
using a clean and dry cloth.
Follow the directions below to keep your
FoodCycler looking (and working) at its best.
Always ensure the FoodCycler is turned off,
switched off at the power outlet and unplugged
and allow the FoodCycler to cool before
performing any cleaning or filter replacement.
Cleaning the outside of the FoodCycler
WARNING
DO NOT immerse your FoodCycler in water.
This will damage your FoodCycler beyond
repair and might cause electric shock. Exterior,
cosmetic cleaning only!
NOTE
Use a clean, dry cloth to clean external
surface, internal surface and heating plate
surface of the FoodCycler. With particularly
stubborn grime, you can add a small amount
of dish soap to your damp dish cloth before
thoroughly wringing out most of the moisture.
NOTE
Exposure to cooking oils and cleaning
chemicals may cause colour fading and
discolouration to the FoodCycler. If the
FoodCycler is exposed to oils or chemicals,
turn off and unplug the appliance and use
a damp cloth to clean the external surface
of the FoodCycler. Dry thoroughly using
a dry, lint-free cloth or paper towel to remove
all moisture before use.
DO NOT use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
harsh cleaners, etc. on and/or in the
FoodCycler while cleaning as they will
damage the FoodCycler.
NEVER use alcohol or other solvents on
this FoodCycler.
Cleaning the Grinding Bucket
The grinding bucket is made from tough
aluminium with a protective porcelain
coating, making your bucket dishwasher
friendly for ultimate convenience.
Allow your bucket to cool before handling
or placing it back in your FoodCycler.
1. Remove bucket.
2. Remove all blockages and loose particles
from grinding bucket.
3. Place bucket in lower rack of dishwasher.
If you find that the bucket contains a residue
from the previous cycle and you would like to
remove it, you can run a cycle with only citrus
rinds (lemons, orange, etc.). The citrus peels
will help clear any residue or caked-on food
waste.
If a jam occurs and you cannot remove the
blockage manually, soak the bucket overnight
in warm water (soap optional). Avoid using
metal tools or metal wire brushes to clear out
the blockage.
You can also hand wash your bucket using
warm water, a small amount of dish soap
and a dish cloth. Scrub around and beneath
the agitators as much as possible to clean
all available surfaces.
