Cleaning & Care
Routine cleaning is essential to keep your EZ Bean Cooker in its best condition . After
each use, the cooker should be cleaned and stored as directed:
1 . Always turn off the cooker and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before
cleaning .
Make sure the cooker is cool to the touch so that you do not
burn yourself.
2 . Next, clean the outer portion of the cooker with a damp, soft cloth or paper towel .
Use a clean, dry cloth or paper towel to dry the outer body of the cooker .
NEVER immerse the outer body in water or pour water into the inner
portion of the cooker.
3 . Using warm water, clean the underside of the lid, including the gasket, pressure
release valve, and air escape/float valve . Remove the gasket and clean thoroughly
with warm, soapy water; then rinse . Dry all parts of the lid completely before
replacing the gasket . Never place the lid in the dishwasher .
4 . Use caution to remove the inner cooking pot as it may be hot to the touch . Use
oven mitts or pot holders to carefully remove the cooking pot . If any food or liquid
remains in the cooking pot, exercise caution to prevent spilling or splashing hot
food or liquid on yourself or others .
5 . Wipe the inner edge of the cooker (where the lid sits when in place) with a damp
cloth to remove any food or liquid that may have spilled .
6 . The inner cooking pot may be placed in your dishwasher for cleaning . To clean the
inner cooking pot by hand, use a soft cloth or sponge with soapy water . To prevent
damage to the coating on the cooking pot,
do not use harsh chemicals or
scouring pads . Dry with a clean cloth or allow to air dry .
7 . Store your EZ Bean Cooker in a safe place . Do not secure the lid on the cooker –
if you close the lid and lock it in place, the gasket will experience increased wear
and will wear out prematurely . Use caution when moving the cooker when the lid
is not securely in place .
8 . The gasket will have natural wear and tear and may need to be replaced as often as
once a year depending on frequency of use . To order replacement gaskets, please
turn to page 12 .
