5.0 CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Do not use cleaning agents that are corrosive.
WARNING: Disconnect the power supply to the appliance before
cleaning or servicing.
WARNING: Never spray water into electric controls or components!
CAUTION: The equipment and its parts are hot. Use care when
operating, cleaning and servicing.
Your kettle should be cleaned immediately after each use or when cooking a different product.
Before cleaning, check that the kettle has cooled enough to touch it.
1. Rinse the inside of the kettle thoroughly and drain to remove any food particles.
2. Using a nylon brush, clean the kettle with a mild detergent and water. Never use steel wool
or scouring powder as it will scratch stainless steel. Plain steel wool can leave small pieces
of steel which can rust.
3. Rinse the inside of the kettle thoroughly with clean water. Drain the kettle by tilting or using
the optional tangent draw-off valve to allow the detergent and water solution to drain.
