Care and Cleaning

To Clean Appliance:
Remove Power Cord from electrical outlet. Do not immerse in liquid.
Check Gaskets and around Drip Tray to make sure they are free from
food materials. Wipe off gasket with warm soapy cloth if needed.
Bottom gasket may be removed for cleaning. Clean with warm, soapy
water. The top gasket is not removable.
The Removable Drip Tray makes cleanup easy when small amounts of
liquids are inadvertently pulled into the Vacuum Channel during vacuum
process.
Empty Drip Tray after each use. Wash in warm soapy water or place in top
rack of dishwasher. Dry thoroughly before re-inserting into the appliance.
Always leave lid latch in open or store position, never leave in closed
position. When appliance is left in closed position, the gaskets become
compressed and the unit may not function properly.
Do not leave appliance outside in the environment while not in use.
