CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before you use your Optimum ThermoCook for the first time, and again after each use, clean the machine, its components and any
accessories thoroughly.
• To clean the blending bowl, first dismantle the blending bowl and blade assembly (refer to page 5).
Remove the mixing knife if relevant, then clean the inside and outside of the bowl with cleansing agent and a soft sponge/cloth. You can
clean the mixing knife, spatula, mixing tool, steamer, measuring cup, bowl lid and cooking basket in the same way.
NOTE: Remove the black seal ring before you wash the blade assembly, and ensure that both parts are completely dry before fitting
them back together.
• Clean the body of your Optimum ThermoCook with a damp cloth only. Do not use harsh abrasives or chemicals.
• Components listed under the accessories are dishwasher safe. Please note the blending bowl and lid are not dishwasher safe.
• Once the machine is clean, dry it, and then store it in a well-ventilated and dry place.
• Ensure that the 6 contact pins at the bottom of the bowl are always clean and dry.
Caution • Turn off the machine, and disconnect it from the power supply before cleaning it. Never immerse the main body in
water or other liquids.
• Do not immerse the blending bowl in water or put it in the dishwasher. Keep the bottom of the bowl dry.
