DOOR GASKETS
Clean the gasket sealing surface of the compartment doors to remove harmful food acids for maximum
gasket life. Do not use any solvents. Wash with a cloth moistened in a solution of mild detergent and
warm water. Rinse with a fresh cloth moistened with warm water to remove all traces of detergent.
Wipe dry with a clean cloth. Never apply food oils or petroleum lubricants directly to the door gasket.
Petroleum-based solvents and lubricants will shorten gasket life.
LEAVE COMPARTMENT DOORS OPEN
CAUTION: Leave the compartment doors slightly open when the steamer is not in use. When
the compartment is idle, never latch the door and apply pressure to the door gasket. Leaving
the gasket under pressure can cause permanent deformation, greatly shortening gasket life.
GUIDELINES FOR MAINTAINING STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
There are four things that can break down stainless steel and allow corrosion to develop: 1) abrasion,
2) deposits, 3) water and 4) chlorides.
Avoid rubbing with steel pads, wire brushes or scrapers that can leave iron deposits on stainless steel.
Instead, use plastic scouring pads or soft cloths. For stubborn stains, use products such as Cameo,
Talc or Zud First Impression. Always rub parallel to the polish lines or with the grain.
Hard water can leave deposits that promote rust on stainless steel. Treated water from softeners or
certain filters can eliminate these mineral deposits. Other deposits from food or lubrication must be
properly removed by cleaning. Use mild detergent and nonchloride cleaners. Rinse thoroughly. Wipe
dry. If using chloride-containing cleaners or sanitizers,
rinse repeatedly to avoid stainless steel
corrosion. Where appropriate, apply a polish recommended for stainless steel (such as Benefit or
Super Sheen) for extra protection and lustre.
