Some cleaning agents can damage stainless steel. For this reason we recommend
cleaning with soapy water. Woodson do not take any responsi ility for damage
caused y the use of inappropriate cleaning agents.
In some areas, particularly seaside environments, stainless steel can e su ject to

This appliance must be cleaned thoroughly after each use. This is in addition to weekly cleaning using vinegar to
remove mineral deposits. If these deposits are not removed, pitting of the metal can occur and may result in
damage to the appliance.
Cleaning after use:
1. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
2. Discard any remaining water and allow to cool down before cleaning.
3. DISCOLOURING OF TH WAT R TANK
This is caused by oxidizing of iron content in tap water. It can be removed by using a nylon brush and by

b. Pour water up to the full water level indicator.
c. Boil the water and let the mixture remain inside the unit for approximately 1 hour.
d. Pour out the water and use a nylon brush to clean the inner part.
e. To remove the smell of the lemon, boil water again, and dispose the water.
4. Lid and tank are washable with soap and water.

Stainless Steel Protection
Cleaning
•For cleaning a stain on the surface of the stainless steel, check the cleaning section of the operation
manual.
•All metal surfaces should be checked while cleaning for damage, scuffs or scapes as these can lead to rust
and further damage to the product.
Corrosion Protection
•Stainless steel exhibits good resistance to corrosion however, if not properly maintained stainless steel
could rust.
•Any sign of mild rust or corrosion should be thoroughly cleaned with warm soapy water and dried as soon
as possible.
•NEVER use abrasive pads or cleaners for cleaning.
•Medium rust or corrosion can be treated by a commercial cleaning agent that contains
citric/oxalic/nitric/phosphoric acid. Do NOT use cleaning agents with chlorides or other harsh chemicals as
this can cause corrosion. A lemon slice or a few drops few drops of lemon juice added to the water can be
used as a substitute. After treatment, wash with warm (not hot) soapy water and dry thoroughly.
•Thoroughly wipe the surfaces dry after cleaning and do NOT let water pool on the unit. Check crevices and
folds for pooling.
•If an abrasive product is used while cleaning, thoroughly dry the unit and leave in an open or oxidised
area for the stainless steel protective layer to replenish.
•When using, ensure all liquids and moisture is cleaned up straight away. Food liquids such as juices from
vegetables and fruits should NOT be left on preparation surfaces.
•Do NOT leave items on the stainless steel such as cutting boards, rubber mats and bottles.
Surface Finish
•To protect the polish, stainless steel should be dried by wiping a dry soft cloth in the same direction as the
grain.
•For NON-food contact surfaces, a light oil can be wiped on the surfaces with a cloth to enhance the
stainless steel surface. Wipe in the direction of the grain.
•Some commercial stainless stain cleaners can leave residue or film on the metal; this may trap fine
particles of food on the surface, thus deeming the surfaces not food safe.

chemicals, flooding, fire or act of God;
c) Any consequential loss, damage or expense arising directly or indirectly from use of the equipment
otherwise than in accordance with the Instructions;
d) Any damage or malfunction arising from, or relating to, Customer's failure to properly maintain or
clean the equipment in accordance with the Instructions;
