Clean all stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth. A non-abrasive cleaner may be used to remove discolorations. Always rub in the direction of the polish lines on the stainless steel to preserve the original finish. To prevent water spots and streaks, rinse equipment thoroughly with warm water and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth. The addition of a rinsing agent will also help prevent spotting.

Keeping the fryer exterior clean and free of accumulated grease will prevent stubborn stains from forming. Wash all exterior surfaces at least once daily. Use a cloth with warm water and a mild soap or detergent. Follow with a clear rinse, then dry.
