7.0 CLEANING GUIDELINES
A. Daily Cleaning
Once the power is off and the reservoir has been drained, a simple cleaning process should be
followed:
Lift the pan racks up and off mounting screws, and remove from the steamer for
cleaning.
Lift reservoir cover out of cooking chamber compartment, clean cover.
Remove the drain/overflow standpipe, clean, making sure overflow holes are
clear and open.
Using a soft sponge, clean the non-stick coating on the interior of the cooking
chamber.
Clean the door gasket with gentle soap and water and allow to air dry.
NOTICE:
Only use mild soap, vinegar, and water to clean your steamer. Do not use abrasive
utensils, caustic cleaners, or products containing chlorine, lye, or phosphorus (such as
Lime-A-
Way
). After cleaning, rinse thoroughly by wiping with a wet cloth dampened with fresh water.
Never spray water on your steamer.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROPER INSTRUCTIONS MAY CAUSE AN UNSAFE CONDITION
AND/OR DAMAGE YOUR STEAMER, AND WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
Rinse the cooking chamber and door area with clean water. Rinse the cavity.
Wipe with clean towel or soft sponge.
NOTE:
If starchy food products (potatoes, pasta) cause water to get frothy add 2 tablespoons of
cooking oil to the water to control foaming.
!
WARNING:
The reservoir water may still be hot. It is advisable to let the water cool
down prior to draining.
NOTE:
Opening the steamer door will speed the cooling process. It is also advisable to leave the
steamer door open when not in use. This will lengthen the life of the door gasket.
!
WARNING:
The cooking chamber is designed to retain heat. It may still be hot to the
touch when cleaning. Wear protective gloves, or wait for the surface to cool before
cleaning. Do not add cold water to a hot, empty cooking chamber until it has cooled
down, or damage may result.
