- Clean the steam fryer once it has cooled adequately. The steam fryer should be cleaned regularly and all food residue inside should be removed.Note: Do not rinse the appliance directly with water when cleaning; wipe it with a damp dish cloth. Dirt will cause the eventual degradation of the appliance’s surfaces, which can affect the life of the appliance and can lead to other dangerous conditions.
- Wipe the steam fryer housing by a cloth with a soft detergent. Then wipe it off with a damp cloth and dry it with a dry cloth. Do not use a scrubbing utensil such as a wire brush to clean the steam fryer.
- Clean door seals, cavities and adjacent partsWARNING: Do not use a rough scrubber or a sharp metal scraper to clean the door of the steam fryer, as this can damage the seals.
