OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preparation
a. Hang the drainpipe on the back of the unit via the clip.
b. Make sure that the electrical outlet you are using is properly grounded.
c. Make sure that the timer is set to 0 minutes before plugging the unit in.
2. Place Produce in Unit
Open the lid and place the vegetables, fruit, or other utensils into the washing basket; then close
the lid (make sure that the lid is closed before turning on the power). Some larger vegetables
may need to be cut into more manageable pieces before they are placed in the unit.
Reference weight about washing
When using the CuisineClean do not let the weight exceed 1 lb for leafy green vegetables (i.e.
spinach, lettuce) or 3 lbs for roots and tubers (such as potatoes and carrots).
3. Add Water
Fill the CuisineClean with water up to the “Max Water Level” shown on the basket. DO NOT
OVERFILL THE UNIT
4. Close the lid
Make sure that the lid is closed and locked before operating. This will keep water from splashing
out.
5. Usage
Washing time can be selected using the timer on the front of the unit. Times are adjustable from
1 to 15 minutes. We recommend the following:
Specifications Time
Light disinfection cycle (appropriate for most
delicate produce found in the supermarket). ie.
strawberries and peas
Rinse 2 times, 3 minutes per time.
Medium disinfection cycle (appropriate for
medium tenacity pollutants or residual
pesticides). ie. Grapes and cherries
Rinse 3 times; the first and second times for 3
minutes, and the third time for 1 minute.
Heavy disinfection cycle (appropriate for high
tenacity pollutants or residual pesticides). ie.
Apples, oranges, potatoes, and cucumbers
Rinse 3 times; the first time for 15 minutes the
second time for 3 minutes and the third time for 1
minute.
6. Drain
After washing, place the loose end of the drainpipe into a sink or other appropriate receptacle and
allow the water to drain. While water is draining, run the unit for an additional 2 minutes to
remove any excess water from the contents. This will help extend the storage life of the produce.
7. Finish washing
