Cleaning the appliance

down. Burnt-on residues can only be removed with
difficulty.
Remove large clumps of residue using a spatula.
Ice cubes are better suited to cleaning the hot

hot water and less steam.
Carefully remove cleaner residues before next using the
appliance.

down for at least 15 minutes.
