(
or more often if necessary
):
1. Clean exterior with a damp cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth.
2. Use a non-abrasive cleaner to remove discolorations.
3. Clean around burner air mixer and orifice if lint has accumulated.
It is
NOT RECOMMENDED
to use cleaning agents that are corrosive.
Use of cleaning agents that contain chloride, acids or salts which are corrosive may cause pitting and corrosion when
used over a period of time; this will reduce the life of the appliance.
Should pitting or corrosion occur, this is not covered by the warranty.
Follow the recommended cleaning instructions. Use a mild detergent, warm water and rinse thoroughly.
Never spray water into electric controls.
Following daily and period maintenance procedures will enhance the long-life for your equipment. Climactic conditions -
salt air - may require more thorough and frequent cleaning otherwise the life of the equipment could be adversely affected.

To remove normal dirt, grease or product residue from stainless steel, use ordinary soap and water (with or without
detergent) applied with a sponge or cloth. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Never use vinegar or any corrosive cleaner.
To remove grease and food splatter or condensed vapours that have baked on the equipment, apply cleanser to a damp
cloth or sponge and rub cleanser on the metal in the direction of the polishing lines on the metal. Rubbing cleanser as
gently as possible in the direction of the polished lines will not mar the finish of the stainless steel.
NEVER RUB WITH A
CIRCULAR MOTION
.
Soil and burnt deposits which do not respond to the above procedure can usually be removed by rubbing the surface
with SCOTCH-BRITE scouring pads or STAINLESS scouring pads. DO NOT USE ORDINARY STEEL WOOL as any
particles left on the surface will rust and further spoil the appearance of the finish. NEVER USE A WIRE BRUSH, STEEL
SCOURING PADS (EXCEPT STAINLESS), SCRAPPER, FILE OR OTHER STEEL TOOLS. Surfaces which are marred
collect dirt more rapidly and become more difficult to clean. Marring also increases the possibility of corrosive attack.
Refinishing may then be required.

Darkened areas sometimes appear on the stainless steel surface where the area has been subjected to excessive heat.
These darkened areas are caused by thickening of the protective surface of the stainless steel and are not harmful. Heat
tint can normally be removed by the foregoing, but tint which does not respond to this procedure calls for a vigorous
scouring in the direction of the polish lines using SCOTCH-BRITE scouring pads or a STAINLESS scouring pad in
combination with a powdered cleanser. Heat tint action may be lessened by not applying or by reducing heat to equipment
during slack periods.

It is recommended that your steamer be delimed once a month, or more often if necessary.
Should your steamer develop a heavy build-up of lime scale deposits, use the CLR TREATMENT KIT available from your
authorized servicer.
Before beginning deliming procedures, ensure that water is not overflowing into the cooking compartment.
