Never
A food waste disposer, also known as a garbage disposal, grinds scraps right in the sink: here is what happens with anything that isn't food.
No, not with any model.
Food scraps only: no paper, plastic, labels, rubber bands, glass, metal.

Cold water, a little at a time, mixed loads.Food scraps only. Never fats or oils, never anything that isn't food.
Anything that isn't food has no business in the sink, because it neither grinds nor breaks down. It would never reach fine particles in the chamber: it would sit in the trap, or further along where the pipe narrows. The most common accidents are small ones: a cap, a rubber band, a teaspoon dropped in the drain. Looking into the chamber before switching on avoids almost every problem. Food scraps only: no paper, plastic, labels, rubber bands, glass, metal. The right place is the waste stream it belongs to, not the sink, which does not dispose of it.
Send us the food and your model: we answer ourselves, no runaround.
