6.0 - Cleaning
To keep your HY-6E Steamer in proper working condition/order, use the following procedure to clean the unit. This
regular cleaning will reduce the effort required to clean the steam generators and cavities.
6.1 Suggested Tools
1. Mild detergent
2. Stainless steel exterior cleaner such as Zepper®
3. Steam generator de-liming agent, such as
Groen Delimer Descaler, Lime-Away® or an
equivalent. A liquid de-liming agent will be
easier to use than crystals or powders. See the
warning about chlorides, below
4. De-greaser, such as EncompasS®, Malone 34®,
Puritan Puribrute®, or Con-Lie®
5. Cloth or sponge
6. Plastic wool or a brush with soft bristles
7. Spray bottle
8. Measuring cup
9. Nylon pad
10. Towels
11. Plastic disposable gloves
12. Funnel
6.2 Procedure
6.2.1 Outside of Steamer
1. Prepare a warm solution of the mild
detergent as instructed by the supplier. Wet
a cloth with this solution and wring it out. Use
the moist cloth to clean the outside of the unit.
Do not allow freely running liquid to touch the
controls, the control panel, any electrical part, or
any open louver.
2. To remove material which may be stuck to
the unit, use plastic wool, a fiber brush, or a
plastic or rubber scraper with a detergent
solution.
3. Stainless steel surfaces may be polished
with a recognized stainless steel cleaner such as
Zepper®.
