User Maintenance Instructions

Cleaning

Disconnect plug from wall outlet and allow Wok to cool. Remove
Temperature Control Probe and set aside. The Wok is completely
immersible for cleaning. Wash the non-stick surface of the Wok,
inside and out, thoroughly with hot, soapy water. Cooking oils 
that are not removed may become a rubbery, varnish-like
substance that is difficult to remove. Do not use abrasive cleaners
or abrasive pads.

Storage

The opening between the small wood Handle and the Wok Body
can be used to hang the Wok. Care should always be taken to
prevent the Wok from being scratched.
