Care and cleaning
Motor base
Wipe the motor base with a clean, damp cloth
after each use. Dry thoroughly with a soft, clean
cloth.
Processing bowl and lid
Hand wash in hot, soapy water using a mild
detergent. Do not use a scourer or abrasive
cleaners as they will scratch the plastic surface.
Lid seal
Your Breville ikonTM Food Processor is equipped
with a silicone seal, located in a recess around
the outer rim of the food processor bowl lid, to
reduce leakage while processing larger volumes
of wet ingredients. The silicon seal is removable
for cleaning purposes. However, to ensure its
effectiveness, the silicone seal must be inserted
correctly.
Removing the seal
Pry the silicone seal out of the recess in which it is
positioned, using your fingers or non marking, blunt
implement such as the tip of the plastic spatula
provided, and gently pull it over the lower edge of
the lid. Once a section of the silicon seal has cleared
the lower edge of the lid, it should come off with
ease. Be careful not to over-stretch the silicon seal
as this may damage or break it. Clean the silicon
seal in warm water using a mild detergent, rinse
and dry thoroughly.
Installing the seal
Step 1
To ensure the silicone seal is inserted properly, the
ribbed side of the seal should sit against the bowl
and the smooth side should face out.
Step 2
The smooth side of the seal has a thick and thin
section. Ensure the thin section of the seal is sitting
on top of the thick section. See diagram 1a
Step 3
Once positioned correctly, place a small section of
the silicon seal into the recess it was removed from,
then, holding the seal in position with one hand,
gently stretch the remainder of the seal over the lo-
wer edge of the lid and into the recess. Ensure that
the silicon seal aligns and sits wholly within the
recess around the outer rim of the food processor
bowl lid. See diagram 1
