Always ensure that no food waste falls outside of the bucket and into the unit. This may
cause damage to the motor and other internal components. We recommend removing the
bucket from the unit prior to adding food waste to the bucket. Add food waste throughout
the day/week until you are ready to start a cycle.
Do not overload your bucket. The bucket has a fill line around the interior surface of the
bucket. Do not add food waste above this line. Do not press down on food waste within
the bucket. Overloading the bucket may cause the unit to jam.
If you would like to add more waste to your cycle while the unit is running, you may pause
the cycle during Phase 1 to 3 by simply opening the lid. Adding food waste beyond Phase
3 will aect the quality of the recycled food compound.
The unit will run more eciently if the bucket is filled up to the fill line rather than running
the unit half-full.
Ensure the unit has adequate space surrounding the unit for proper ventilation. Do not
block any vents on the unit or place any objects on top of the lid during operation.

faQS
1. Where should I store the unit?
The FoodCycler food recycler can be used in any indoor area that has a power outlet and sucient space (including basements and
heated garages).
Ensure that the unit is sitting on a flat, dry surface.
Do not store the unit next to heaters and kitchen appliances which generate significant heat.
Do not store the FoodCycler food recycler outdoors, or in any place where it is likely to get wet or subjected to temperatures below
freezing.
2. What can I process in the FoodCycler food recycler? For a complete guide on what you can and cannot process, please refer
to page 8.
Like any healthy diet, the FoodCycler food recycler performs best when fed a wide variety of foods. To ensure optimal food waste
breakdown, add multiple dierent types of food waste to every cycle, with heavier foods interspersed with lighter, dryer foods. Avoid
high concentrations of the following foods:
Starches (bread, cake, rice, pasta, mashed potatoes, stung)
Condiments, dressings, sauces and soups
Nut butters
Jam, jellies, marmalades
High sugar fruits (grapes, cherries, melon, oranges, bananas, etc.)
The dense, starchy and/or moisture-rich composition of these foods make them dicult to process in large quantities.
Prior to cycling, chop up items with a high fiber content, such as parsley and asparagus, as these items can easily wrap around the
Bucket’s grinding arm and cause a jam.
If a jam occurs, the unit will stop processing and switch to self-protection mode (jam error code). The items causing the jam must be
removed from the Bucket prior to restarting the cycle.
3. What can’t I put in the FoodCycler food recycler? For a complete guide on what you can and cannot process, please refer to
page 8.
Do not attempt to cycle anything other than organic wastes in your FoodCycler food recycler (such as glass and metal). Do not cycle
hard bones (such as pork, lamb or beef bones), hard pits, candy, gum, wood, nuts or hard shells; these materials may cause serious
damage to the Bucket, and/or cause the motor to overload. Do not add oil, flammable materials or compounds to the unit.
Note: If a unit or Bucket is damaged from cycling or has come into contact with the Do Not Process materials here in the FAQ section,
the associated warranties will be considered void, as the inclusion of these materials goes beyond the intended use of the product.
4. Can I store unprocessed food waste in the unit?
It is not recommended to leave unprocessed food waste in the unit for long periods of time. The Carbon Filters are only able to wick
away odors during processing. Leaving decomposing organic matter in the enclosed unit will generate odors, methane gas and may
attract fruit flies and/or other pests.
13
5. What can I do with the recycled food compound?
The recycled food compound can be used as a soil amendment, or homemade fertilizer. For best results, we recommend adding the
recycled food compound to the soil at a ratio of 1 part fertilizer to 10 parts soil. For cycles with an abundance of animal protein (meat,
dairy, etc.), we recommend increasing the ratio to 1:15. It is recommended to wait a minimum of one week (4 weeks for best results)
following soil application before planting seeds or transplanting plants to the newly fertilized soil. The healthier your food waste, the
healthier your garden. Foods high in fat, oil, sodium or sugar may not produce optimal results.
Do not add the recycled food compound directly to the soil surface. This will not feed the soil suciently, and the recycled food com-
pound will absorb moisture, which will increase the likelihood that your soil amendment will mold and/or attract unwanted pests to your
yard or garden.
You can also dispose of the recycled food compound in your green bin or garbage can (check your local restrictions). Adding the
recycled food compound to your household trash is still preferable to throwing the unprocessed food waste, as the recycled food com-
pound will take up less space in landfills and will generate fewer transport emissions once collected.
6. How do I extend the life of my Filters?
The filter indicator is to remind you to replace your filters every 3-6 months (depending on use) or approximately 500 cycle hours
(whichever comes first). The Change Filter Indicator is a recommendation, however the best indicator of your unit filters is the cycle
odor. The filter life depends on the quality and quantity of the use of the unit.
Running a cycle with only citrus rinds (lemons, oranges, etc.), will help mitigate filter odors.
It is recommended that you shut down and unplug the FoodCycler food recycler before leaving your home for an extended period of
time. Leaving the unit in Active mode (Start button illuminated) will consume the life of the Filter.
Including coee grounds in your regular cycles can help mitigate odors and can also help to keep your Bucket clean.
7. How do I keep my Bucket clean?
The FoodCycler food recycler Bucket is designed to self-clean with every cycle. It is normal to have a residue in the base and sides of
the Bucket after some cycles. Simply empty the contents of the finished cycle, ensuring the internal grinding arm can fully rotate, and
fill the Bucket for the next cycle. If a jam occurs and you are not able to rotate the internal grinding arm, remove the contents and man-
ually soak the Bucket with boiling water and mild soap overnight, to loosen the blockage.
8. I’m hearing “clunking”/squeaking sounds during my cycle - is this normal?
Noises during the cycle are perfectly normal. While the majority of cycles are quiet, particularly dense, fibrous or moisture-rich food
wastes in a cycle can cause the Bucket to make sounds as it processes food waste.
9. What happens if the unit is unplugged, or a circuit is tripped during the cycle?
The FoodCycler food recycler is designed to continue running from the point in the cycle at which it was operating prior to the loss
of power (including events such as unplugging the power cord or a tripped circuit). If 1-2 hours have passed since the unit lost power
mid-cycle, we suggest you reset the cycle by turning the unit o (by pressing and holding the Power button for upwards of 3 seconds)
and pressing the Power button again to start a new cycle.

AVERTISSEMENT: Afin d'éviter les risques de blessures graves lors
de l'utilisation de votre recycleur alimentaire FoodCycler et de ses
accessoires, vous devez adopter des consignes de sécurité essentielles,
notamment celles qui suivent
.
LIRE TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS, CONSIGNES DE SÉCU-

7. Votre cuisine pourrait être équipée de disjoncteursDDFT. Vous les trouverez dans
les prises situées près des éviers. Si le FoodCycler ne fonctionne pas, débranchez-
le, puis réarmez la prise murale ou le disjoncteur. Si le disjoncteur continue de se
déclencher, débranchez le mélangeur de la prise. Laissez le recycleur alimentaire
FoodCycler reposer pendant 24heures avant de le réutiliser. Communiquez avec
le service à la clientèleVitamix si le problème persiste.
8. Le recycleur alimentaire FoodCycler doit être branché à des prises électriques
correctement mises en terre.
9. NE PAS laisser le cordon d'alimentation pendre d'un plan de travail ou d'une table.
10. Les rallonges électriques peuvent être utilisées à condition de faire preuve de
prudence. Si une rallonge (ou un long cordon d'alimentation détachable) est
utilisée:
a. La puissance électrique indiquée du cordon d'alimentation détachable ou de la
rallonge doit être supérieure à la puissance électrique de l'appareil;
b. Si l'appareil est de type mis à la terre, la rallonge doit être un cordon à 3 fils de
type mise à la terre; et
c. Le cordon le plus long doit être disposé de façon à ne pas pendre d'un plan de
travail ou d'une table où il risque de provoquer un trébuchement, un
accrochage ou une traction involontaire (surtout chez les enfants).
4. Laisser le recycleur alimentaire FoodCycler refroidir avant d'ouvrir le
couvercle (environ 35minutes après la fin du cycle). Laisser les composants
intérieurs du recycleur alimentaire FoodCycler refroidir complètement avant
d'eectuer toute manipulation. Utiliser les poignées ou les boutons fournis
pour une manipulation sécuritaire.
5. Faire attention lors de la manipulation du seau au milieu du cycle ou
immédiatement après le cycle car le seau peut être chaud.
6. Éviter de retirer le seau de l'appareil au milieu du cycle car les surfaces internes
peuvent être chaudes.
7. NE PAS ouvrir le couvercle durant un cycle.
8. Garder les doigts loin des charnières pour éviter les pincements.
9. Ne JAMAIS toucher de pièces en mouvement.
10. Ne pas tenter de déjouer les mécanismes de sécurité interlock.

recycleur alimentaire FoodCycler à moins que le cycle ne soit terminé et qu'il soit
éteint et débranché.
12. NE PAS mettre la main à l'intérieur du seau lorsqu'il est inséré dans le recycleur
alimentaire FoodCycler. Si des ajustements doivent être apportés au contenu du

FoodCycler et ajuster le contenu si nécessaire.
13. NE PAS faire fonctionner un appareil dont le cordon ou la fiche est endommagé. Si
le cordon d'alimentation est endommagé, il doit être remplacé par le fabricant, son
