3. Lift out the drip bowl.
TO CLEAN THE DRIP BOWL:
For brown food stains—use dishwashing
detergent, warm water, plastic scouring pads,
mild abrasive cleaners, soap- filled scouring
pads or ammonia.
Clean drip bowls after each use. Rinse and
dry well. Foods that are not removed can
cause permanent stains that cannot be
removed. For heavily soiled bowls, place an
ammonia- soaked paper towel over the bowl
to loosen the soil, then gently scrub the bowl
with a plastic scouring pad.
For blue-gold heat stains— use a metal
polish.
These stains are caused by overheating, and
are usually permanent. To help minimize this
effect, avoid excessive use of high heat set­
tings and use flat bottom pans that do not
extend more than V from the edge of the
cooking element.
