However, if the film is damaged, the  
stainless steel can break down and rust.  
CLEANING  
WARNING:  
Always  
UNPLUG  
ELECTRICAL  
PREVENTIVE CARE:  
To prevent stainless steel break-  
down, follow these steps:  
POWER SUPPLY before cleaning.  
DAILY:  
1.  
Never use any metal tools,  
scrapers, files, wire brushes,  
or scouring pads (except for  
stainless steel scouring pads,)  
which will mar the surface.  
1.  
2.  
Unplug electrical power supply.  
Allow warmer to cool before  
cleaning.  
3.  
Clean the interior of the cabinet  
with a mild soap and water.  
Never use harsh chemicals or  
abrasive pads to clean the cabinet.  
2.  
3.  
Never use steel wool – which  
will leave behind particles that will  
rust.  
Never use acid-based or  
chloride containing cleaning  
solutions – which will break  
down the protective film.  
4.  
5.  
Rinse and dry with a soft dry  
cloth.  
Clean the exterior of the cabinet  
with a clean damp cloth.  
4.  
5.  
Never rub in a circular motion.  
Always rub gently in the direction  
of the steel grain.  
HEAVY-DUTY CLEANING:  
For heavy-duty cleaning, use warm  
water, a degreaser, and a plastic,  
stainless steel, or Scotch-Brite pad.  
Never rub in a circular motion -- rub  
gently in the direction of the steel grain.  
Always rinse thoroughly.  
Never leave any food products  
or salt on the surface. Many  
foods are acidic. Salt contains  
chloride.  
PRESERVING & RESTORING:  
Special stainless steel polishing  
STAINLESS STEEL CARE  
cleaners can preserve and restore the  
protective film.  
CLEANING:  
Stainless Steel contains 70 – 80% iron,  
which will rust if not properly maintained.  
Stainless Steel also contains 12 – 30%  
chromium, which forms an invisible  
passive, protective film that shields  
against corrosion.  
Preserve the life of stainless steel with a  
regular application of a high-quality  
stainless steel polishing cleaner, as a  
final step to daily cleaning.  
If signs of breakdown appear, restore  
If the protective film remains intact, the  
stainless steel will remain intact.

surface. Then, on a daily basis, apply a  
high-quality stainless steel polish  
according to manufacturer’s instructions.  
To reduce heat tint, limit the exposure of  
equipment to excessive heat.  
HEAT TINT:  
MAINTENANCE  
Darkened areas, called “heat tint,” may  
appear on stainless steel exposed to  
excessive heat. Excessive heat causes  
the protective film to thicken. This is  
unsightly, but is not a sign of permanent  
damage.  
WARNING;  
The Cabinet and its parts are HOT.  
Be very careful when Operating,  
Cleaning, or Servicing the cabinet.  
ALWAYS: UNPLUG ELECTRICAL  
To remove heat tint, follow the routine  
cleaning procedure. Stubborn heat tint  
will require heavy-duty cleaning.
