Cleaning the Groen SSB-10EF-208-3 Boilerless Steamer is an important maintenance task to ensure its proper functioning. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to clean the steamer:
1. Turn off the steamer and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Remove all literature and packing materials from the interior and exterior of the unit.
3. Prepare a warm solution of mild detergent as instructed by the supplier.
4. Wet a cloth or sponge with the detergent solution and wring it out. Use the moist cloth to clean the outside of the unit, avoiding the controls, control panel, and any electrical parts.
5. To remove any stuck-on material, use a fiber brush or a plastic or rubber scraper with the detergent solution.
6. For stainless steel surfaces, you can use a recognized stainless steel cleaner to polish them.
7. For the interior cleaning, start by removing the steam lid, left pan rack, and rack/shroud assembly. These parts can be cleaned in a dishwasher.
8. Use the mild detergent to wipe down the entire steamer cavity, removing any food and scale particles. Pay attention to cleaning the float probes if there is any residue or loose scale present.
9. Remove the drain strainer and clean it thoroughly to remove any debris buildup.
10. Replace the pan racks and steam lid.
11. If there is excessive scale buildup, you can use vinegar or a Groen-approved delimer to descale the steamer. Follow the deliming instructions provided in the manual.
12. After cleaning, leave the door open to allow the cavity to air out and prolong the life of the door gasket.
It's important to note that you should never hose or steam clean any part of the unit, and avoid using metal materials or implements that may scratch the stainless steel surfaces. Always follow the warnings and directions on the cleaning agents you use, and ensure the steamer is completely cool before cleaning.
