Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward as the unit comes fully assembled. Before the first use, wash the bowl, basket, and lid with warm soapy water. To operate, ensure the basket is centered within the bowl before engaging the lid. When cleaning, the lid can be disassembled to remove any water trapped inside the pump mechanism—check the manufacturer instructions for proper separation. While the unit is top-rack dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to prolong the life of the plastic components. Avoid placing heavy items on top of the unit during storage to prevent damage to the pump knob.
