1/2 Gastronorm Pan Maintenance:

1. Daily Cleaning

After each use, immediately remove any food debris and clean the inside and outside surfaces of the plates with warm water and a neutral detergent. For stubborn stains, use a stainless steel cleaner. Avoid strong acids or alkalines, as these can damage the polish. After cleaning, wipe dry with a dry cloth to prevent residual moisture that can cause rust or stains.

2. Regular Polishing

Polish your plates quarterly using a stainless steel polish and a soft cloth, following the instructions in the manual. Polishing effectively restores the surface's gloss and fingerprint resistance, ensuring the plates maintain their aesthetic appeal over time. For frequently used plates, more frequent polishing is recommended to extend their lifespan.

3. Storage Environment Control

When storing for long periods, keep plates in a dry, well-ventilated environment, away from humidity and high temperatures. If possible, apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the surface to prevent oxidation and rust.

4. Avoid Prolonged Soaking

When washing plates, avoid soaking them in water, especially hot water, for extended periods. Prolonged soaking may cause the polished surface of dishes to gradually wear away, increasing the risk of rust. After washing, wipe dishes dry immediately with a dry cloth to ensure no moisture remains on the surface.

5. Regularly disinfect dishes

Disinfect dishes monthly using a dedicated disinfectant or the dishwasher's disinfection function. Disinfection effectively kills bacteria and viruses on the surface of dishes, ensuring food safety and hygiene.
