Cleaning and Maintenance

Do not wash any parts of the Multi-cooker in the dishwasher except for the
removable cooking pot. Always wash the removable cooking pot thoroughly
after every use, or if it has not been used for an extended period of time.
1. Unplug the Multi-Cooker and let the unit cool before cleaning.
2. Remove the removable cooking pot and wash with warm soapy water or
in the dishwasher. Hand washing is always recommended. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
3. Wipe the outer housing with a clean damp cloth and rinse the lid with
warm water and soap. Do not submerge the Multi-cooker or the lid in
water.
NOTE: To remove an odor from the inside part of the lid, clean it with
water and vinegar (1:1 ratio).
4. Remove the condensation reservoir by pulling it down. Wash with warm,
soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Replace by pushing it back into
place.
5. Turn the lid upside down; grip the silicone gasket and pull up to remove.
Clean the silicone gasket with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. Replace the gasket by positioning it inside the edge of the lid
and pushing it down. Make sure the groove in the center of the gasket is
positioned around the metal ring on the inside edge of the lid.
NOTE: The silicone gasket must always be properly positioned on the
underside of the lid; otherwise the unit will not work. Check periodically to
make sure that it is clean, flexible, and not cracked or torn. (See "Getting
Started" section in this manual.)
6. If the silicone gasket appears damaged, cracked or torn, do not use the
unit and contact Fagor Customer Service Department at 1-800-207-0806
or visit the Fagor website to purchase a new silicone gasket at www.
fagoramerica.com.
7. For optimal performance, the bottom of the cooker, in the area under the
removable cooking pot where the temperature sensor and heating pad
are located must be cleaned after each use. Wipe with a soft damp cloth
and be sure to dry thoroughly.
8. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to clean any of the parts.
Cleaning the Pressure Regular Knob
ALWAYS check that the pressure regulator knob and the pressure safety
valves are in good working order before each use.
1. After the unit has cooled, remove the lid from the Multi-cooker.
2. Press down and at the same time turn the pressure regulator knob
counterclockwise past STEAM to CLEAN setting and carefully lift to
remove. Look through the holes to make sure there is no particle build-up,
and put it under running water to clean.

3. Turn the lid over and place it on a table top. Pull out the anti-locking
case. Using a brush or toothpick, check and remove any food or foreign
particles that may be lodged in the floating valve. Replace the anti-locking
case by pressing down.
4. Replace the pressure regulator knob by lining the CLEAN dot with the
dot on the lid of the unit and turning clockwise until it goes into place.
The white dot on the base of the pressure regulator should line up with
the PRESSURE or STEAM setting on the pressure regulator knob. If it
doesn't, remove the knob again and try realigning the dots the other way
around.
