electrical installation, we recommend seeking
competent professional assistance. Disposer or
accessory damage due to improper installation is
not covered under warranty. All installations must
comply with local electrical codes.
PERSONAL INJURY
• Food waste disposers are designed to grind
and dispose of normal food waste. Inserting
materials or items other than food waste into
the disposer could cause personal injury and/or
disposer damage.
• To reduce the risk of injury from materials that may
be expelled from the disposer grind chamber,
ensure that the disposer bafe is properly installed.

foreign materials out of the grind chamber, replace
the splash bafe when it becomes worn.

disposer: clam or oyster shells, drain cleaner, glass,
china, plastic wrap, large bones, metal objects,
explosive materials, extremely hot water, grease,
