Simply turn on the cold water tap, and then switch on the machine. Now feed in the waste food through the flaps of the splashguard. As the waste enters the grinding chamber it hits the stainless steel disc. There are no blades or knives inside. Centrifugal force then sends the waste outwards, and it is ground into small particles by the combination of the impellers on the disc, and the stainless steel teeth in the grinding chamber. When the particles are small enough they pass through special drainage holes in the disc and are then flushed away.
Panda units have particularly small drainage holes, which ensure that the pieces that pass through are tiny. This means that blockages in pipes are reduced to an absolute minimum. The whole process only takes a matter of seconds.
