Cleaning
All of the oven chamber walls are stainless steel to retard corrosion.
NOTE:
Remove saline solution spills with a damp cloth.
Clean the interior of the oven regularly to keep the stainless steel from corroding. The
exterior of the unit is painted metal and plastic. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth.
Use a mild cleaning solution if necessary.
Follow these guidelines when cleaning the unit:
• Unplug the unit, leave the door open, then allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• Clean all surfaces with a damp cloth, employing a mild detergent (such as a dish
washing detergent) and warm water when necessary.
• Do not scrub any surface with steel wool or abrasive cleansers.
• Where there is a heavy coating of residue on the stainless surfaces, or where there
is evidence that corrosion is beginning, use a stainless steel cleaner.
• Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth, then allow to air dry.
• Inspect the interior of the oven prior to further use, to ensure that no cloth or other
debris is left inside the oven.
