CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance consists of daily cleaning all the parts that can come onto contact with food-
stuffs and of the periodical maintenance of the burners, nozzles and of the outlet pipes.
The instructions to be followed for cleaning are listed below:
Use a soft cloth and neutral detergents.
To clean the stainless steel, do not use steel wool, iron scrapers, or brushes since they can
deposit ferrous particles that can oxidize leading to rust. To remove hardened residues, use
wooden or plastic spatulas, or stainless steel wool.
If you use alkaline detergents, thoroughly rinse after washing.
Do not spray with direct jets of water or with high-pressure equipment since any water getting
into the outer shell can jeopardize the safety of the machine.
Periodically check whether any incrustations have formed in the overflow pipe (due to foam)
and clean it if necessary, without using objects that can damage the rubber pipe.
When not being used, do not leave water in the basin.
When the appliance is not to be used for lengthy periods, spread a protective film over all the
stainless steel surfaces by passing a cloth soaked in Vaseline oil over them, and air the rooms
periodically.
The periodic annual maintenance of the burners must be done by specialized and
authorized personnel and it consists of keeping the holes clean for the fuel-comburent mixture to
flow in and out. Access to the burners and nozzles is explained in the following paragraphs.
