• Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
• A BUFFALO dealer or qualified technician should carry out repairs if required.

Scraping

After each use, scrape the appliance with a scraper/grill stone/copper brush or flexible spatula to remove excess fat and food. A waste tray is provided for the scrapings if necessary.

If there is an accumulation of burned fat or food, the cooking surface should be thoroughly scoured and re-seasoned. .

WARNING: DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL AS IT MAY LEAVE SHARDS THAT COULD CONTAMINATE FOOD.

Waste Tray

These appliances feature a waste tray to collect any liquid or fats that run off during cooking.

At least once a day, remove and empty the waste tray before washing with warm soapy water. Do not allow the tray to overfill or excess grease will run out of the overflow hole at the front of the tray.
