FOR WASTE DISPOSERS EQUIPPED WITH A
GROUNDED PLUG-IN POWER CORD.
B. This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with
a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. If the supply cord is damaged it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Removing an attached power cord or plug voids
the warranty.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL OPERATION
A. Be sure disposer is empty before using your dishwasher so it may drain properly.
B. You may want to leave the stopper in the sink drain when not in use to prevent utensils and foreign objects from
falling into the disposer.
C. Your disposer is ruggedly built to give you many years of trouble free service. It will handle all normal food
wastes, but it will NOT grind or dispose of such items as plastic, tin cans, bottle caps, glass, china, leather, cloth,
rubber, string, clam and oyster shells, aluminum foil or feathers.
The Anti-Jam Swivel Impellers make a clicking
sound as they initially swing into place. This
indicates normal operation.
A. Remove sink stopper. Turn on a medium flow of cold
water.
B. Turn switch to ON position; your motor is turning at full
speed and ready to use.
C. Scrape in food waste. Down the drain go table scraps,
peelings, rinds, seeds, pits, small bones and coffee
grounds. To speed up food waste disposal, cut or
break up large bones, rinds and cobs. Large bones
and fibrous waste require considerable grinding time
and are more easily thrown away with other trash. Do
not be alarmed that the disposer slows down while
grinding. The disposer is actually increasing torque
(grinding power) and is operating under normal
conditions.
D. Before turning the disposer off, let water and disposer
run for approximately 15 seconds after shredding or
grinding stops. This assures that all waste is thoroughly
flushed through trap and drain.
E. It is not recommended to use hot water while running
disposer. Cold water will keep waste and fats solid so
disposer can flush away particles.

9. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LUBRICATE YOUR
DISPOSER!
The motor is permanently lubricated. The disposer is self
cleaning and scours its internal parts with each use.
NEVER put lye or chemical drain cleaners into the
disposer, as they cause serious corrosion of metal parts. If
used, resulting damage can be easily detected and all
warranties are void. Mineral deposits from your water can
form on the stainless steel turntable, giving the appearance
of rust. DO NOT BE ALARMED, the stainless steel
turntables used will not corrode.
A. Connect the disposer to appropriate household
current only.
