Cleaning and maintanence
Your Quva appliance can be cleaned with warm soapy water, or liquid glass
cleaner and a soft cloth. Do not apply liquid cleaner directly to the appliance.
Do not use:
• abrasive cleaning agents or scrubbing sponge
• aggressive solvent, undiluted cleaning agents or anti-limescale rinse agents.
Restore your appliance to protect it from damage by pressing it down after
each use.
Quva fresh containers
Quva’s fresh food containers and lids are dishwasher safe. The sealing liners
can also be removed from the lid and may be cleaned with a mild cleaning
agent, such as warm soapy water.
Cleaning the liquid reservoir
Each time you use your Quva with vacuum bags or moist food items, the
liquid reservoir should be cleaned. To do this, use two fingers to pull the
transparent component from the black part of the vacuum head. Clean the
transparent component with hot water and liquid detergent, and let it dry.
The liquid reservoir can also be placed in the dishwasher.
Note, the transparent reservoir can only be placed on the vacuum head
in one direction, otherwise it can be damaged. Excess forced should not
be used when resistance is felt.
Cleaning or replacing the vacuum hose
The vacuum hose can be detached and cleaned in the event that there is
food or liquid inside, or replaced if it becomes damaged. Please follow the
steps outlined below.
1. Pull out the vacuum head until some resistance is felt.
2. Press the two release buttons inside the recesses of the pop-up unit
with two fingers while gently pulling the vacuum head. Pull out the
transparent hose from the pop-up unit.
3. Continue gently pulling until the retract mechanism reaches a stop
position that allows you to disconnect the hose.
When disconnecting the vacuum hose, it is very important to ensure
the connector does not retract back inside the pop-up unit without the
hose connected.
