CLEANING & CARE
Ensure the oven is unplugged and allowed to completely cool before cleaning.
-
Wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
-
Remove the crumb tray, then clean the interior walls and bottom of the oven by using a damp soapy cloth or sponge.
Notes:- Do not apply soap directly onto the oven.
- Do not use excess pressure when cleaning the area around the display as it could cause the text to be removed over time.
- Never use harsh abrasives or corrosive products including oven cleaner sprays. These could damage the oven surface.
- Never use steel wool pads on the oven.
-
The top interior of the oven should be cleaned to remove excess grease that may accumulate after cooking greasy foods or after using the Rotisserie function. Doing so will prevent smoking in the oven during subsequent uses.
-
The wire rack, baking pan, air fryer basket, and crumb tray should be hand-washed in hot, sudsy water using a nylon scouring pad or nylon brush. These parts are not dishwasher safe.
Note: Always clean the crumb tray after each use. Excess food particles could cause smoking and will be hard to remove from the tray. To remove baked- on grease or burnt food particles, soak the crumb tray in hot, sudsy water or use nonabrasive cleaners. -
The rotisserie spit, forks, screws, and fetch rack can be cleaned with a cloth or sponge in hot, sudsy water. For stubborn stains, soak in hot sudsy water before cleaning.
Storage
Store the oven in a cool, dry place, out of reach from children.
Note: When storing in a cupboard, always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of fire, especially if the oven touches the walls of the cupboard or the door touches the unit as it closes.
