Cleaning and Care

For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should be cleaned regularly.

Warning!

The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock. Before cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or disconnect from the electricity supply.

Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in electrical components and there is a danger of an electrical shock. Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts.

The appliance must be dry before it is switched back on.

Important!

Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g.

-lemon juice or the juice from orange peals;

-butyric acid;

-cleansers which contain acetic acid.

Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.

Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
