- Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic odourless

materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use

sealed containers for strong smelling foods to avoid the

formation of odours that are difficult to remove.

- Use only a water and bicarbonate solution: Clean the in-

ternal and exterior of your appliance with a sponge soaked

with a warm water and sodium bicarbonate solution, which

is also a good disinfectant. If you do not have any sodium

bicarbonate at home, use neutral detergent.
