Cleaning the machine

stainless steel surfaces!
These agents can damage the surface material.

surfaces and to the onset control buttons.
Clean the control panel with a damp cloth and a small amount of

dishwashing solution or with a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner.
Proprietary glass or plastic process chemicals can also be used to

clean the display.
