ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Daily cleaning
Remove everything from the cooking compartment.
Use a standard sprayer to apply the liquid detergent on the whole surface (cooking compartment,
lid and all exposed surfaces) and using a non-abrasive sponge, clean the entire appliance
thoroughly by hand.
When finished, rinse abundantly with tap water (do not use pressurised and/or direct water
jets).
Empty the water from the cooking compartment with the drainage gate valve.
Open the drainage gate valve only after having made sure that the pipe is free from obstructions.
Carefully dry the cooking compartment with a non-abrasive cloth. If necessary, repeat the
operations described above for a new cleaning cycle.
When these operations have been done successfully, close the drainage gate valve.
Cleaning for prolonged deactivation
When the appliance remains idle for a long time, perform all the described daily cleaning
procedures.
When the operations are over, protect the parts more exposed to oxidation doing as follows.
Therefore:
•
Use lukewarm water with a bit of soap to clean the parts;
•
Rinse the parts thoroughly, without using pressurised and/or direct water jets;
•
Dry the surfaces carefully using non-abrasive material;
•
Wipe a non-abrasive cloth lightly soaked with food-safe Vaseline oil over all of the
stainless steel surfaces in order to create a protective film.
For appliances with doors and rubber gaskets, leave the door slightly ajar to let it air out
and spread protective talcum powder on the rubber gasket surfaces.
Air out the appliances and rooms regularly.
