10.1 Cleaning stainless steel surfaces

To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces and remove the toughest stains, always use specific products, provided they do not contain chlorine-based abrasives or acid substances, or a little warm vinegar.

Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the steel surface. Rinse carefully and dry with a soft cloth or a piece of deerskin.

Do not under any circumstances use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers that may damage the surfaces. Only use non-scratch,non-abrasive sponges and, if necessary, wooden or plastic utensils.

Do not use products containing abrasives, scouring pads, steel wool or acid, which may spoil the surfaces. Do not leave acid or alkaline substances on the enamel (lemon juice, vinegar, salt, etc.).
