IMPORTANT
Each compartment is equipped with a removable drain screen. Frequently check the drain screen for
accumulation of food particles. Should food particles accumulate against, or clog the drain screen,

Frequently check that the compartment drain and plumbing is free of all obstructions. Never place food containers, food or
food portion bags in the cooking compartment in such a way that the compartment drain becomes obstructed.
