Weekly, or more often if necessary, clean the exterior with damp cloth and polish with soft dry cloth. Use a non-abrasive cleaner to remove discolourations.

After each period of daily operation (more frequently as required to maintain cleanliness), the cooker should be thoroughly cleaned by completing the following steps:

Remove the deflector plate and pan supports by lifting up and off mounting studs and wash with a mild detergent.

When the unit has cooled, use hot soapy water to clean the interior of the steamer and thoroughly rinse and dry all surfaces with a clean dry cloth.

Inspect the drain opening to assure there are no obstructions.

Replace the pan supports and deflector in compartment and leave door ajar.

CAUTION! Under no circumstances should hardware (or parts) be replaced with a different length, size, or type other than as specified in the parts list. The hardware used in the cooker has been selected or designed specifically for its application, and the use of other hardware may damage the equipment and will void any warranty.
