Care and cleaning
In this chapter you will find tips and information on
optimal care and cleaning of your appliance.
9 WARNING
Risk of electrical shock
Moisture entering the appliance can cause an
electrical shock. Don't use a high-pressure
cleaner or steam cleaner.
9 WARNING
Risk of burns
The accessible parts get hot during operation.
Never touch hot parts. Keep children away.
Cleaning the appliance
Empty the cooking basin after each use and clean
it with dishwashing liquid and a soft dishwashing
brush.
The cooking basin should not be treated
with stainless steel care agents because these
are mostly not neutral as far as foodstuffs are
concerned.
Grime, salt or lime deposits can cause corrosion
damage.
Clean the cooking inserts and the leftovers
strainer in a dishwasher or with mild soap
solution. The hand grip for the cooking inserts
must only be cleaned by hand.
Dry the cooking basin thoroughly with a soft
cloth. The glass cover should not be fitted while
the cooking basin is still moist.
Polish the cooking basin with a soft cloth and a
drop of cooking oil after drying it.
After cleaning and drying, you can store the cleaned
cooking inserts and the hand grip in the cooking
basin. Turn over the glass cover to make sure that the
appliance cover (special accessory) will lie properly
on the recess.
Note: After a few hours of operation, the contours of
the heating elements will appear on the base of the
basin. This does not detrimentally influence the
functions and the quality of the appliance.
Descaling the cooking basin
You should descale the cooking basin if a white lining
forms in it due to limey water. Extreme scaling can
produce malfunctions on the appliance.
You will find a suitable descaler under the order
number 311138 in our online shop. Mix 40 ml (about
0.08 pint) of descaler in 200 ml (about 0.4 pint) of
warm water. If you would like to produce more or less
descaler solution, keep to the ratio of 1 part descaler :
5 parts water.
Close the drain valve and pour the descaler solution
into the cooking basin. Remove the scale with a soft
dishwashing brush. Drain off the descaler liquid and
rinse thoroughly with clear water. Avoid skin contact
with the descaler solution. Also pay attention to the
information on the label.
Note: Residues of starchy foodstuffs (e.g. rice) in the
cooking inserts can also be removed very well with the
descaler solution.
Do not use these cleaning agents
Caustic or corrosive cleaners
Do not allow acidic cleaners (e.g. vinegar, citric
acid, etc.) to come into contact with the frame.
Cleaners containing chlorine or large proportions
of alcohol
Oven spray
Hard, scratchy dish-washing sponges, brushes or
scourers
Thoroughly wash out new sponge cloths before
using them.
