Maintenance & Cleaning
Maintenance
Clean the stainless steel regularly with warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge
(make sure that the unit is switched off)
Always fill daily with clean water. The addition of a slice of lemon or lemon drops to
the water daily will help to prolong the life of the elements
If the unit is fitted with back glass sliding doors, it is recommended that they be left
open after the elements are switched off
When draining the tank, it is recommended that the water be allowed to cool first.
The tank element may then be wiped clean
Cleaning
Whilst stainless steel is a very hardy and long lasting material, it must be cleaned
regularly and according to the instructions below to prevent deterioration.
Wipe the external surfaces down with warm soapy water using a damp sponge or
cloth.
Do not immerse the unit in water or allow the ingress of water into the interior of the
machine or any electrical components.
Note: Some cleaning agents can damage stainless steel. For this reason we
recommend cleaning with soapy water. Woodson do not take any responsibility for
damage caused by the use of inappropriate cleaning agents. In some areas, particularly
seaside environments, stainless steel can be subject to surface discolouration or “tea
staining”. This can be removed with an appropriate cleaning agent which contains 10%
sodium citrate. Ask your supplier of cleaning chemical for a suitable brand.
