USER MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

Caution! Risk of product damage. Many cleaners contain abrasive and

chemical substances, and should not be used for cleaning stainless steel,
enamel, plated or plastic fittings. These finishes should be cleaned using
a mild washing up detergent or soap solution, rinsed and then wiped dry
with a soft clean cloth.
Keep your cast iron product looking new by rinsing it out thoroughly after
each use. If the surface gets excessively dirty, use a general purpose
cleaner.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents on cast iron products.
