Cleaning guidelines
Further information on stainless steel surfaces:
●
The surface should be properly ventilated.
●
Keep the surface clean. Remove cleaners and food residue immediately. Always avoid
the return of food stuff splashes to the production process.
●
If mechanical cleaning is necessary, do not use cleaning equipment made of metal.
–
Clean with brushes made of plastic or natural bristles or with microfiber pads.
–
Use plenty of water to clean the surface.
●
Make sure surface is not damaged: Do not damage the device during operation, or by
cleaning or repairing it using hard tools, in particular tools made of corrodible materials.
●
Ensure that the surface does not come into contact with parts that can rust.
This includes water pipes, filings, residue from wire brushes or steel wool. These, as well
as rust films have a corrosive effect on parts made of stainless steel.
–
Remove any stains or rust immediately.
–
Remove new rust spots with a mild abrasive detergent in order to prevent any further
corrosion.
–
Rinse thoroughly with clean water after each cleaning.
●
Ensure that the cleaning agent is completely removed without any residue.
