CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Clean the appliance and its accessories after each use.
• Before cleaning your oven, press the CANCEUOFF button to turn OFF the oven. Unplug the cord and allow it to cool before cleaning.
• To clean the exterior of the oven, wipe it with a damp cloth using mild, soapy water. Abrasive cleaners, scrubbing brushes and chemical cleaners will damage the coating on this unit.

Note:

Do not immerse the appliance in water.

• To clean the Wire Rack, Baking Pan, Dehydrate Rack, or Pizza Pan, remove them from the oven and immerse them in warm, soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth or sponge.
  These accessories may also be washed in the top rack of a dishwasher.
• Remove the Removable Crumb Tray and shake off any crumbs. Wash with soapy water and dry thoroughly. Cleaning the Crumb Tray often will avoid any accumulations.
• Attach the baking tray below the grill rack within the groves provided while broiling, grilling, roasting, de-hydrating, toasting or cooking any food items which can drip food moistures or juices. These drippings can fall over quartz heating tubes and can stain them. Consistent saturation of food dripping on quartz tube can diminish their cooking performance.
