1. Never use any metal tools,
scrapers, files, wire brushes,
or scouring pads (except for
stainless steel scouring pads,)
which will mar the surface.
2. Never use steel wool – which
will leave behind particles that will
rust.
3. Never use acid-based or
chloride containing cleaning
solutions – which will break
down the protective film.
4. Never rub in a circular motion.
Always rub gently in the direction
of the steel grain.
5. Never leave any food products
or salt on the surface. Many
foods are acidic. Salt contains
chloride.
Special stainless steel polishing
cleaners can preserve and restore the
protective film.
PRESERVING & RESTORING:
Preserve the life of stainless steel with a
regular application of a high-quality
stainless steel polishing cleaner, as a
final step to daily cleaning.
If signs of breakdown appear, restore
the stainless steel surface. First,
thoroughly clean, rinse, and dry the
surface. Then, on a daily basis, apply a
high-quality stainless steel polish
according to manufacturer’s instructions.
Darkened areas, called “heat tint,” may
appear on stainless steel exposed to
excessive heat. Excessive heat causes
the protective film to thicken. This is
unsightly, but is not a sign of permanent
damage.
HEAT TINT:
To remove heat tint, follow the routine
cleaning procedure. Stubborn heat tint
will require heavy-duty cleaning. To
reduce heat tint, limit the exposure of
equipment to excessive heat.
MAINTENANCE
The Oven and its parts are HOT. Be
very careful when Operating,
Cleaning, or Servicing the Oven.
WARNING;
ALWAYS UNPLUG ELECTRICAL
POWER SUPPLY BEFORE
CLEANING OR SERVICING THE
CABINET.
At least once a week, thoroughly check
the door gasket for damage/wear. A
damaged gasket can cause inefficient
and unsatisfactory operation of the
oven.
DOOR GASKET:
If the gasket requires cleaning:
1. Gently wash gasket using a
moist cloth, a mild detergent
solution, and warm water.
2. Rinse with a fresh cloth
moistened in warm water to
remove all traces of detergent.
3. Gently wipe dry with a clean dry
cloth.
Never apply food oils, or petroleum
lubricants directly to the gasket(s).
Petroleum based solvents and
lubricants will reduce the gasket’s life.
