Maintenance Tips

Unplug and let the unit cool completely before cleaning to avoid burns or electrical damage.
After each use, drain wells and clean with warm water and mild, non‑abrasive detergent; wipe interior and exterior surfaces, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Descale periodically, especially if using hard water, to prevent mineral buildup and maintain heating efficiency.
Avoid abrasive tools, steel wool, harsh chemicals, or caustic cleaners, which can scratch or corrode stainless-steel surfaces.
Never operate the unit with empty wells or use pans deeper than recommended; always maintain proper water levels for safe, efficient operation.
Inspect drains, valves, seals, and electrical connections regularly to ensure proper function and prevent leaks or damage.
