MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
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.
CAUTION
Do not use cleaning agents that are corrosive.
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 de-
tergent 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. Tilt the kettle to allow the detergent and water
solution to drain.
4. Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a clean, damp
cloth.
WHAT TO DO IF SURFACE RUST APPEARS
Metal utensils should never be used as they will scratch
the surface of the equipment and rust may begin to form.
To remove surface accumulation of rust from the inadver-
tent use of such utensils, the following procedure may be
used.
CAUTION
Improper use of this procedure may damage
your appliance!
1. Use undiluted white vinegar with a non-abrasive
scouring pad (plastic) or cloth on the affected area to
remove the rust stain. The appliance should not be
heated and remain at room temperature during the
entire cleaning process.
2. If the stain resists removal, additional exposure time
with vinegar may be required, to a maximum of one
hour.
3. Thoroughly wash all of the vinegar away with fresh
clear water. Dry the surface completely and allow
one hour before using the appliance to cook.
Following daily and period maintenance procedures will
prolong the life for your equipment. Climatic conditions -
salt air - may require more thorough and frequent cleaning
or the life of the equipment could be adversely affected.
STAINLESS STEEL
To remove normal dirt, grease or product residue from
stainless steel, use ordinary soap and water (with or with-
out detergent) applied with a sponge or cloth. Dry thor-
oughly with a clean cloth. Never use vinegar or any other
corrosive cleaner.
To remove grease and food splatters or condensed va-
pours that have baked on the equipment, apply cleanser
to a damp cloth or sponge and rub cleanser on the metal
in the direction of the polishing lines. Rubbing cleanser
as gently as possible in the direction of the polished lines
will not mar the nish of the stainless steel. NEVER RUB
WITH A CIRCULAR MOTION.
Soil and burn deposits which do not respond to the above
procedure can usually be removed by rubbing the surface
with SCOTCH-BRITE™ scouring pads or STAINLESS
scouring pads. DO NOT USE ORDINARY STEEL WOOL
as any particles left on the surface will rust and further
spoil the appearance of the nish. NEVER USE A WIRE
BRUSH, STEEL SCOURING PADS (EXCEPT STAIN-
LESS), SCRAPER, FILE OR OTHER STEEL TOOLS.
Surfaces which are marred collect dirt more rapidly and
become more difcult to clean. Marring also increases
the possibility of corrosive attack. Renishing may then
be required.
TO REMOVE HEAT TINT
Darkened areas sometimes appear on stainless steel sur-
faces where the area has been subjected to excessive
heat. These darkened areas are caused by thickening
of the protective surface of the stainless steel and is not
harmful. Heat tint can normally be removed by the forego-
ing, but tint which does not respond to this procedure calls
for a vigorous scouring in the direction of the polish lines
using SCOTCH-BRITE™ scouring pads or a STAINLESS
scouring pad in combination with a powdered cleanser.
Heat tint action may be lessened by not applying or by
reducing heat to equipment during slack periods.
All food contact surfaces must be thoroughly drained and
ushed prior to cooking in the kettle.
CONTROL PANEL
The textured control panel should be cleaned with warm
water and mild soap. Never use an abrasive cloth or steel
wool. Never use cleaning solvents with a hydrocarbon
base.
