7.0 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE (Continued)
CLEANING
Weekly, or more often if necessary:
1. Clean exterior with a damp cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth.
2. Use a non-abrasive cleaner to remove discolorations.
It is NOT RECOMMENDED to use cleaning agents that are corrosive.
Use of cleaning agents that contain chloride, acids or salts which are corrosive may cause
pitting and corrosion when used over a period of time; this will reduce the life of the appliance.
Should pitting or corrosion occur, this is not covered by warranty.
Follow the recommended cleaning instructions. Use a mild detergent, warm water and rinse thoroughly.
NEVER SPRAY WATER INTO ELECTRIC CONTROLS OR LOUVRES.
MONTHLY
REMOVAL OF SCALE DEPOSITS
It is recommended that your steamer be descaled once a month, or more often if necessary.
Should your steamer develop a heavy build-up of lime scale deposits, use the CLR®
TREATMENT KIT available from your authorized service agent.
DESCALING PROCEDURE
WARNING: Read and follow instructions on the CLR® bottle. Use
plastic or rubber gloves to avoid skin contact. If CLR® comes in
contact with skin, rinse with clean water.
1. Set power switch to "OFF".
2. Remove diffuser plate and pan support racks.
3. Pour one quart of solution into the cavity.
4. Fill the remainder with water up to the "WATER LEVEL" line.
