Cleaning appliance

▯
Empty the cooking basin after each use and clean it
with dishwashing liquid and a soft dishwashing
brush.
Don't treat the cooking basin with stainless
steel care products, since they normally aren't food-
safe.
▯
Grime, salt or lime deposits can cause corrosion
damage.
▯
Clean the cooking inserts and the residuary filter in
the dishwasher or with mild soapy water. Only clean
the hand grip for the cooking inserts by hand.
▯
Dry the chamber thoroughly with a dishtowel. The
glass cover shouldn't be put on as long as the
cooking basin is still damp.
▯
If a white deposit forms in the cooking basin due to
very hard water: Wipe out cooking basin with a
mixture of vinegar and water or a food-safe
decalcifier. Rinse out afterwards with clear water.
▯
After drying, polish the cooking basin with a soft
cloth and a drop of cooking oil.
After cleaning and drying, you can store the cleaned
cooking inserts and the grip in the cooking basin. The
glass cover must be turned over so that the appliance
cover (special accessory) lies correctly on the surface.
Note: After a few hours of operation, the heating
contours begin to show on the bottom of the basin. This
has no negative effect on the functionality or quality of
the appliance.
