ATTENTION! Before doing any cleaning, make sure that the appliance is disconnected from
the electric mains. During cleaning operations, avoid using direct or high pressure sprays of
water on the appliance. Cleaning has to be done when the appliance is cold.

It is also advisable to avoid using sandpaper or emery paper. Only in the event of encrusted dirt,
pumice stone in powder may be used; anyway, an abrasive synthetic sponge or stainless steel wool
would be preferable to be used in the direction of the grain. After washing, dry the appliance with a
soft cloth.
If the appliance is out of use for a long time, it is advisable to disconnect the main electricity
supply, wipe all stainless steel surfaces with a cloth soaked in Vaseline oil so to provide it with a
protective film, and air the rooms now and again.
