A. Suggested Tools
1. Mild detergent
2. Stainless steel exterior cleaner such as Spray Degreaser, Zepper®
3. De-greaser, such as EncompasS®, Malone 34®, Puritan Puribrute®, or
Con-Lie®
4. Cloth or sponge
5. Plastic wool or a brush with soft bristles
6. Spray bottle
7. Measuring cup
8. Nylon pad
9. Towels
10. Plastic disposable gloves
B. Procedure
1. Outside
a. Prepare a warm solution of mild detergent as instructed by the
supplier. Wet a cloth with this solution and wring it out. Use the moist
cloth to clean the outside of the unit. Do not allow freely running liquid
to touch the controls, the control panel, any electrical part, or any
panel louver.
b. To remove material which may be stuck to the unit, use plastic wool,
a fiber brush, or a plastic or rubber scraper with a detergent solution.
c. Stainless steel surfaces may be polished with a recognized stainless
steel cleaner such as Zepper®.
2. Inside
Remove the fan/baffle partition from inside the unit and place it into a utility
sink. Wash the cooking chamber(s) and fan/baffle partition with a warm
solution of mild detergent and water. If needed, use a de-greaser with a
plastic scouring pad. Rinse parts thoroughly with clean water and replace
fan/baffle partition. Make sure the drain holes at the back of each cavity
are free of food particles or other debris.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT USE ANY METAL MATERIAL (SUCH
AS METAL SPONGES) OR METAL IMPLEMENT
(SUCH AS A SPOON, SCRAPER OR WIRE
BRUSH) THAT MIGHT SCRATCH STAINLESS
STEEL SURFACES. SCRATCHES MAKE THE
SURFACE HARD TO CLEAN AND PROVIDE
PLACES FOR BACTERIA TO GROW. DO NOT
USE STEEL WOOL, WHICH MAY LEAVE
PARTICLES IMBEDDED IN THE SURFACE,
WHICH COULD EVENTUALLY CAUSE
CORROSION AND PITTING.
