CLEANING AND CARE
Make sure you turn off and unplug the unit before cleaning it. Always wait until the unit cools down completely. Thoroughly wash the glass bowl, plastic base, extender ring, cooking racks and tongs in hot soapy water and allow to dry completely. You may also place the glass bowl and cooking racks into the dishwasher.
When washing cooking racks, do not soak them in water for long periods of time. Once washed, do not let air dry, dry racks thoroughly with cloth or paper towel. This will preserve the surface and will extend the life of the cooking racks.
WARNING: Do not immerse the lid with control knobs, cord, or plug in water or any other liquid. Do not use abrasive cleansers. Do not place glass lid into the dishwasher.
Once unplugged from the power outlet, the surface of the glass lid can be carefully wiped clean using a damp cloth or sponge. All parts must be dry before next use. When storing the unit, always make sure ALL parts are DRY, to avoid any moisture collecting in the lid.
SELF CLEANING OF GLASS BOWL

1.Pour approximately 1 to 2 inches of water into the glass bowl, add a small amount of mild dishwashing liquid.
2.Place lid on and plug into the electrical outlet.
3.Set temperature control to WASH setting, set timer to 10 minutes.
4.Once the timer goes off, carefully open the lid and wait for the glass bowl to cool down before emptying the liquid inside.
5.Rinse the glass bowl in clean warm water to remove the soap residue.
