MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Maintain after it
becomes cool.
Maintain the plate after
cooling it off.
Touching the hot part can
cause burns.
Dimple plate and metal plate
The way to maintain and to clean the ditch of the
metal plate is like that of the dimple plate and
the plane surface. Please detach the metal plate
and clean it with a sponge.
When there is a lot of dirt
on the metal plate, install
the plate with the body.
Then pour the water and
boil. After that, scrub the
metal plate with a
resin-coated spatula.
•Maintain the plate every time after
unplugging.
•Always keep the dimple plate, the metal
plate, and the lid clean.
•In case of using cleaner, please use the
kitchen detergent. Do not use cleanser or a
scrubbing brush, whitening components,
benzene, thinner or alcohol, etc.
For long-term keeping the
processed fluorocarbon-resin of
the dimple plate
• Use the resin-coated spatula. Do not use
other metal accessories such as a knife or
a spatula. Such accessories can cause
some scratches on the surface of the
dimple plate.
• After cooking, maintain the lid right away. If
some moisture or some food particles are left
over in the plate, they may discolor or cause
corrosion which makes the resin peel away.
• For maintenance, wipe away the moisture
and let it dry. Then rub the plate slightly with
the clean cooking oil.
• During the operation or after cleaning it by
immersing in the water, there may be some
stains on the resin-coated surface.
However, these do not affect the hygiene
problems. Please feel free to use.
Regarding the maintenance
In case the metal plate is piled on the dimple
plate, please place the towel between them.
If the metal plate is directly put on the dimple
plate, this may cause some scratches.
Lid

• Remove the dirt immediately.
• Do not immerse the lid in the water when it is
hot. It may break.
Remove dirt and foreign matters with the
damp cloth.
•Do not wet or let the water inside the body.
Heating plate
Remove the foreign
matters stuck between
the heating plate.
If there are some foreign matters stuck on
the heating plate firmly, rub such matters
with fine sandpaper (No. 320), available in
local stores, and wipe such matters with the
damp cloth.
•If the plate is used with the stuck matters, the
temperature may alter.
•The dimple plate, the metal plate, and the
heating plate are use together, so some small
scratches on the front or the back of the
surface will not trouble the performance.
