How do I clean my food waste disposer?

Food waste disposers are very low maintenance appliances. However, if you smell any odours coming from your disposer, it's usually the sign of food build up.

Over time, food waste particles can accumulate inside the grind chamber and sink baffle. 

To clean your disposer, follow these simple steps:

1. Turn off your disposer
2. Remove the sink baffle and clean the underside of the baffle with a scouring pad.
3. Place the baffle back in the sinkhole
4. Turn on your disposer and run a medium stream of cold water
5. Place ice cubes mixed with lemon/lime wedges down your disposer to freshen it up.
