Q&A

Maintenance Tips

• Empty and rinse food wells after every use using warm water and a mild, food‑safe detergent to remove food residues.

• Descale the unit periodically (especially in hard-water areas) using a manufacturer‑approved descaling solution — this helps preserve heating efficiency.

• Wipe down exterior stainless‑steel surfaces with a soft cloth and mild, non‑abrasive cleaner to maintain appearance and hygiene.

• Allow unit to cool and unplug before cleaning to avoid damage to heating elements or internal components.

• Avoid steel wool, abrasive pads, or harsh chemicals, which can scratch or corrode surfaces.

• Clean and inspect drain assemblies, faucets, and valves regularly to prevent blockages or leaks.

• Check gaskets and seals periodically to ensure proper sealing and maintain temperature/steam retention.
