•
Do not leave plastic cooking utensils in contact with
the hot frypan surface while cooking.
•
Before cleaning, switch the frypan to ‘MIN’ and
unplug from the power outlet. Remove the
temperature probe when cooled from the socket in
the appliance.

•
If cleaning is necessary, wipe over the unit with a
slightly damp cloth.
Never immerse the temperature probe or cord in
water or any other liquid.
Note
Non-stick cooking surface
Cooking on a non-stick surface minimises the need
for oil, food does not stick and cleaning is easier.
Any discolouration that may occur will only detract
from the appearance of the frypan and will not affect
the cooking performance.
When cleaning the non-stick coating, do not use
metal (or other abrasive) scourers. Wash in hot soapy
water. Remove stubborn spots with a plastic washing
pad or nylon washing brush. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Removing discolouration of the
non-stick surface
•
Combine 2 tablespoons bicarbonate of soda,
1
⁄
4
cup
household bleach, 1 cup water.
•
Pour into the frypan, place lid on with the vent
closed and simmer for 5-10 minutes.
•
Clean in a well-ventilated area and avoid
breathing in the vapours. Wash as directed before
re-use. In some instances this may not remove
all the staining.
