How to Clean Continuous Feed Food Waste Disposer

Continuous Feed Models, allowing waste to be added as the unit runs.
Remove the sink stopper and turn on a medium flow of cold water.
Turn the switch to ON.
Scrape in food waste. To speed up food waste disposal, cut or break up large bones, rinds and cobs. Large bones and fibrous husks 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.
Before turning the disposer off, let the water and the disposer run for approximately 25 seconds after shredding stops. This assures that all waste is thoroughly flushed through the trap and drain.
Do not use hot water while running the Food Waste Disposer, (Garbage Disposal and Garburator). Cold water will keep food waste and fast solid so they can be flushed down the drain.
