CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING: Allow steamer to cool before washing. Unplug
from the mains socket.
•
Remove the containers and the lids.
•
Carefully remove the drip tray and pour away juices into a bowl or
sink.
•
If there is any water remaining in the main base unit, pour away
using the pouring lip at the back into a bowl or sink.
Containers, drip tray and accessories
The containers, lids, accessories and drip tray may be washed in
a dishwasher. Prolonged dishwasher use could discolour these
parts. Alternatively, wash in hot soapy water, rinse and dry
thoroughly.
Main base unit
The base unit may be wiped with a clean, damp cloth. Wipe dry
with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean any part of Intellisteam.
WARNING: Do not immerse the steamer base, cord or plug in
water or in any other liquid.
DESCALING
Occasionally, you may need to remove mineral deposits (known
as descaling) from the steaming system. This is normal and will
depend on the degree of hardness of the water in your area. If
you notice a slowing in steam production, or a lengthening of
steaming times, you should descale the steaming system using a
mild descaling solution.
