Maintenance Tips

• Always unplug and allow the unit to fully cool before cleaning to prevent burns and protect the non-stick cooking surfaces.
• Wipe top and bottom smooth plates after each use with a soft, damp, non-abrasive cloth to prevent carbon buildup and maintain even heating.
• Perform a deeper daily clean by lowering the upper heater plate and wiping the full upper cavity, including wave guide areas and surfaces.
• Clean exterior stainless steel surfaces daily to avoid grease buildup and maintain a professional finish.
• Remove and clean air filters regularly with warm water; replace if debris cannot be fully removed.
• Never immerse the unit in water or use pressure jets, as moisture can damage internal electrical and microwave components.
• Avoid metal tools on cooking plates; use only approved non-metal spatulas to protect coating and extend service life.
• Keep ventilation areas clear to prevent overheating during continuous commercial operation.
