9. Preventive Maintenance
The toaster should be cleaned on a daily basis. Remove the cover. Remove the belts, wash them in
solution of detergent and warm water, and dry them thoroughly. Use a basting brush or similar soft-
bristled brush to whisk crumbs from the unit. Alternatively, a small vacuum may be used to remove
crumbs from the unit. Wipe down all metal surfaces with cloth dampened with a solution of detergent
and warm water, the wipe again with a cloth dampened with clean warm water. If necessary, use a
stiff-bristled brush to dislodge stubborn residue from the grooves in the rollers, then wipe them down.
Additionally, Frymaster recommends that a Frymaster Factory Authorized Service Technician inspect
this appliance at least annually as follows:
• Inspect all wiring for signs of chafing, kinking, and/or loose connections.
• Verify that all mechanical and electronic components are securely mounted (i.e., screws and nuts
and bolts are tight.)
• Verify that idler roller springs are in serviceable condition (i.e., rollers are held securely in the top of
the J-slots and belts do not slip).
