How to prevent stains and remove stains:

Some types of fruit and vegetables such as carrots/beets may discolor or
stain the plastic and blade parts. This is normal and safe, it’s common issue with plastic products of this nature. The best thing to do is to prevent it from happening in the first place, as follows:

• Spray some vegetable oil on the plastic parts (where the plastic may come into contact with the vegetable). This will make it much harder for carrots/beets to stain the plastic parts.
  If stains happen, please try one of the 2 methods below to remove the stains:
• The easier method: Use baking soda to clean the stain.
• The most effective method: Mix a paste of baking soda and dish soap, scrub it on the stain, let it sit for 20 minutes, scrub it again, and rinse it thoroughly. Repeat as necessary until the stain is removed.

Storage

−Store the product and accessories in a clean, dry location that is out of the children and animals.
