G.1.4 Other surfaces
Chrome plated surfaces (daily)
1. Do not use chlorine-based products, as they can damage
the hot-plate;
2. To protect the finish of the chrome plated surface do not
use lemon or an excessive quantity of salt (as it contains
chlorine) during cooking;
3. Only use stainless steel spatulas to place and remove
food on the plate;
4. During cooking, clean using the scraper with blade edge
for the smooth plate or the serrated spatula for the
grooved plate;
5. Do not use utensils that can damage the chrome;
6. At the end of the day, with plate cold, clean with a sponge
and carefully dry; vinegar can be used to remove any
remaining marks, making sure to rinse the hot-plate
afterwards;
7. Do not use steel wool, abrasive powders or aggressive
chemicals (or containing chlorine) to clean the hot-plate.
NOTE!
Pointed or sharp instruments and scrapers can be
normally used directly on the plate, to cut food or
remove residuals.
NOTE!
Replace the blade of the scraper whenever it is not
perfectly sharp.
Tanks and collection drawers (even several times a day)
• Remove any grease, oil, food residuals, etc., from trays,
drawers and containers in general used for collection;
• Always clean these containers at the end of the day;
• While using the appliance, empty them when they are
nearly full.
G.1.5 Periods of non-use
If the appliance is not going to be used for some time, take the
following precautions:
• Close the valves or main switches ahead of the appliances;
• Go over all stainless steel surfaces vigorously with a cloth
moistened with paraffin oil in order to create a protective
film;
• Periodically air the premises;
• Have the appliance checked before using it again;
• For the electric heated models: switch the machine On at
the minimum rate of heat for at least 45 minutes; this will
allow moisture/humidity accumulated into the heating
elements to evaporate without damaging the elements.
