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 virtually any food material.
• 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 grind large amounts of egg shells at one time. They will be ground by
the disposer, but can build up in pipes.
• Don’t turn off disposer until grinding is completed and only sound of motor
and water is heard.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove stopper from sink opening and run cold water.
2. Turn on wall switch to start disposer.
3. Slowly insert food waste into disposer. CAUTION! Position stopper to minimize possible ejection of material while grinding.
4. After grinding is complete, turn disposer off and run water for a few seconds to flush drain line.
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For all grounded, cord-connected disposers:
This disposer must be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock in the event
of a malfunction or breakdown. Grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current. This disposer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
For permanently connected disposers:
This disposer must be connected to a grounded, metal, permanent wiring sys-
tem; or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conduc-
tors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the disposer.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if
you are in doubt as to whether the disposer is properly grounded. If the
plug provided with the disposer does not fit the outlet, do not modify the
plug or attempt to force the plug into the outlet – have a proper outlet in-
stalled by a qualified electrician.
• This disposer must be properly grounded.
• Do not attach ground wire to gas supply line.
• Disconnect power before installing or servicing disposer.
If three-prong grounded plug is used, plug must be inserted into three-
hole grounded receptacle.
• All wiring must comply with local electrical codes.
Do not reconnect electrical current at main service panel until proper
grounds are installed.
