• Use hot water and dishwashing soap and a sponge to clean the bowl
and the steam basket. Scouring powders and metal sponges are not
recommended.
• If food is stuck to the bottom, you may put water in the bowl to soak for
a while before washing.
• Dry the bowl carefully.
Taking care of the bowl
• For the bowl, carefully follow the instructions below:
• To ensure the maintenance of bowl quality, it is recommended not to
cut food in it.
• Make sure you put the bowl back into the multicooker.
• Use the plastic spoon provided or a wooden spoon and not a metal type
so as to avoid damaging the bowl surface –
fig.15
.
• To avoid any risk of corrosion, do not pour vinegar into the bowl.
• The color of the bowl surface may change after using for the first time or
after longer use. This change in color is due to the action of steam and
water and does not have any effect on the use of the multicooker, nor is it
dangerous for your health. It is perfectly safe to continue using it.
