Cleaning and Maintenance

Do not wash any parts of the cooker in the dishwasher except for the removable
cooking pot. Always wash the cooker thoroughly after every use, or if it has not
been used for an extended period.
1. Unplug and let the unit cool before cleaning.
2. Remove the removable cooking pot and wash with warm soapy water or in
the dishwasher. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Wipe the outer housing with a clean damp cloth. Do not submerge the
electrical unit in water.
4. Remove the condensation reservoir by pulling it down. Wash with warm,
soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Replace by pushing into place.
5. Turn the lid upside down; grip the silicone gasket and pull up to remove.
Clean the silicone gasket with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Replace the gasket by positioning it inside the edge of the lid and pushing it
down. Make sure the groove in the center of the gasket is positioned around
the metal ring on the inside edge of the lid. NOTE: The silicone gasket must
always be properly positioned on the underside of the lid; otherwise the unit
will not work. Check periodically to make sure that it is clean, flexible, and not
cracked or torn. (See "Getting started" section in this manual.)
6. If the silicone gasket appears damaged, cracked or torn, do not use the unit
and contact our customer service department at 1-800-207-0806.
7. For optimal performance, the bottom of the cooker, in the area under the
removable cooking pot where the temperature sensor and heating pad are
located must be cleaned after each use. Wipe with a soft damp cloth and be
sure to dry thoroughly.
8. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to clean any of the parts.
