Cleaning, Care & Maintenance

If grease is permitted to accumulate, it will begin to carbonise into a hard substance that is extremely difficult to remove. To prevent this, follow the cleaning steps below:

• Always turn OFF the appliance and disconnect from the power supply before cleaning.
• Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning.
• Use warm, soapy water and a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the appliance.
• Take care when using scrapers to remove cooking residues as they can damage the cooking surface.
• Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
• An apuro 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.
  Note: It is vital that the cooking surface is re-seasoned after scouring.
  Warning: Do not use steel wool as it may leave shards that could contaminate food.

Waste tray

• This appliance features 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.
  Warning: Do not remove the tray during or immediately after use as the contents will be hot.
