In this chapter you will find tips on how to maintain and clean
your appliance correctly.

The appliance becomes hot during operation. Allow the
appliance to cool down before cleaning.

Risk of electric shock!
Do not use high pressure washers or steam cleaners to clean

Cleaning the appliance

Clean the appliance after each use, once it has cooled down.
This will help prevent residues from burning on. Once residues
have burned on several times, they become more difficult to
remove.
Do not scrape burnt-on residues off, but leave them to soak in
soapy water.
Remove the wire rack and swivel the heating element upwards.
Remove the lava stone tray with the lava stones.
