CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning inside the chicken-spit
ATTENTION: Never use direct or pressure water jets for cleaning.
Cleaning the equipment is extremely important. It ensures perfect operating conditions and longer use of the machine.
Clean the equipment as follows :
- Before any intervention, disconnect the machine from the power source.
- Unplug the appliance by removing the set upwards Omni polar switch or by unplugging. In case of plug pay
attention that it is not wet.
- Cleaning can be effected only when the machine is cold.
- Wash stainless steel parts with water and an appropriate detergent. Never use abrasive or corrosive substances,
they could damage the surfaces.
- Instrument board, handles, glasses and switches have to be cleaned with a wet soft cloth.
- It is advisable, especially in case of continual use, to clean the glasses periodically with a cloth dipped in lukewarm
water. A cloth dipped in cold water could cause a thermal shock and break the glasses. The glasses can easily be
removed to allow better cleaning.
- Empty the drip tray after each cooking cycle.
- Should any anomalies in the working be noted, switch off the machine, disconnect it and call your authorized
service center.
Cleaning burnished brass surfaces
No synthetic protective varnishes have been used to obtain the special burnishing effect on the burnished brass
details in order to avoid spoiling the beauty of the brass with an artificial patina. The antique finish of the surface is
the result of natural oxidation that has simply been accelerated. All the natural antique finish brass surfaces can be
cleaned with mild soap and warm water, accompanied by the use of an abrasive pad (the green color type used
for washing dishes). It is recommended that the metal be rubbed, uniformly applying light pressure, use caution as
this will remove some of the patina if rubbed excessvily.
The brass details should then be dried.
Do not use metal polish as this is suitable not to clean the antique finish and could result in loos of the color and
patina. Oxidation that may appear over time on the burnished brass surfaces is a normal characteristic of our craft
metal working processes.
Cleaning chrome plated brass surfaces
No synthetic varnishes have been used to obtain the special polish on the chromium-plated brass details in order
to avoid spoiling the beauty of the chrome with an artificial patina. All the chromed surfaces should be clean as
needed with a warm water and mild soap and a soft cloth or micro-fiber. Do not use abrasive pads.
Cleaning satin finish nickel plated brass surfaces
No synthetic varnishes have been used to obtain the special nickel-plating on the satin finish nickel-plated brass

cloth, combined with a neutral detergent, if required. Do not use abrasive pads.
