Useful hints for stainless steel maintenance
Stainless steel is so called because it is not affected by oxidation; this is due to
a thin molecular layer of oxide on the surface which protects against further
oxidation. There are, however, substances which can modify or destroy this
layer, giving rise to corrosion: besides preventing the protective film of oxide
from reforming, these substances corrode the stainless steel itself and can
cause irreparable damage. It is therefore necessary to prevent this by choosing
correct cleaning products and by complying with the following simple recom-
mendations:
never forget that, when using these appliances, the first and
fundamental rule is to guarantee that the cleaning products are both non-
toxic and hygienic.
Before using any detergent to clean either the stainless steel or the immediate
and surrounding floor area, always ask your supplier for the most suitable prod-
uct which does not cause corrosion on the steel itself; the onset of rust is most
commonly caused by the use of unsuitable cleaning materials (strongly acid
chlorate based detergents) or on inadequate maintenance.
Our appliances are made of stainless steel AISI 304 (18-10 type) for exterior
paneling, upper tops, tanks etc. Comply with the following instructions when
cleaning and servicing parts in stainless steel.
Ordinary daily maintenance
Carefully and frequently clean the surfaces by using a damp cloth; use soap
and water or normal detergents,
so long as these do not contain abrasives
or chlorine based substances such as sodium hypochlorite (bleach), hydro-
chloric acid or other such solutions: These products quickly and irreparably
corrode stainless steel. When cleaning floors underneath or near the applianc-
es, never use the above mentioned products as vapors or splashes could sub-
ject the steel to similar destructive effects.
Only ever rub in the direction of the staining, then thoroughly rinse with clean
water and carefully dry.
