Water or Food Stuck Inside Handle of Work Bowl
When Anything Stuck Inside Bowl of the KitchenAid Food Processor
Occasionally water and/or food particles get inside the small drainage hole at the bottom of the Work Bowl Handle.
- This occurs most frequently when the Work Bowl is soaked in a sink full of soapy water.
- It can also happen if the Work Bowl has been washed in the Dishwasher with un-rinsed dishes.
The water will typically evaporate with time, although sometimes food particles remain inside the handle.
To help prevent this from occurring, hold the handle of the Work Bowl while washing it and do not submerge it in the water.
Resolution:
- Wash and dry the Work Bowl in the sink right away rather than soaking it in the water.
- If cleaned in the dishwasher, do not combine with unrinsed dishes.
The spray action of the dishwasher should help dislodge the food particles.
