Usage Tips
- Always use cold water when running your disposal. Cold water will help the grease and oils to solidify making chopping easier.
- Leave to motor and water running until you have finished grinding.
- Using hot water can cause grease and oils to produce clogs.
- Don’t grind fibrous foods like celery stalks, corn husks, artichokes or onion skins as the fibers can get tangled and jam the motor.
- Never pour fat, oil or grease into your drain. While cold water will aid in solidifying it, it will begin to accumulate causing clogged drains, and affecting your disposals grinding performance.
- Don’t put foods like rice or pasta into your disposal. They can tend to expand when added to the water and can cause jams or clogs.
- Never grind coffee grounds as they will accumulate and the build up will cause clogs.
- Only put biodegradable food in your XTR disposal, if you’re unsure, throw it in the garbage rather than grinding it.
Cleaning Tips
- Pour some dish soap and cold water down the disposal and run it for a minute to clean it.
- Grind hard materials such as egg shells, fruit pits, or small chicken or fish bones to act as a scrubbing agent to clean the disposal walls.
- Run the disposal daily to prevent rust and corrosion.
