Maintenance Tips

• Daily auto-clean cycle: Run built-in automatic cleaning programs to remove grease, steam residue, and food particles for consistent performance.
• Use filtered/RO water: Essential to reduce scale buildup in the boilerless steam system and extend internal component life.
• Probe care: Clean removable temperature probes after each use and calibrate regularly to ensure accurate cooking and holding results.
• Door gasket inspection: Check seals frequently—damaged gaskets reduce humidity control and increase energy consumption.
• Fan & airflow cleaning: Keep fan guards and internal airflow paths free of grease for even heat and humidity distribution.
• Descaling routine: Perform scheduled deliming cycles to prevent mineral buildup in steam generation components.
• Safevent check: Ensure steam vent paths are unobstructed for safe pressure release and efficient cycle transitions.
• Touchscreen care: Clean control panel with a soft cloth only—avoid chemicals that damage electronics or responsiveness.
• Exterior sanitation: Wipe stainless steel surfaces daily to maintain hygiene and prevent corrosion in high-volume kitchens.
• Preventive servicing: Schedule routine technician inspections for humidity control, sensors, and heating systems to avoid downtime.
