How do I properly clean my Nostalgia EQM200 Quesadilla Maker?

[NolanRose]

Cleaning your Nostalgia EQM200 Electric Quesadilla Maker is straightforward. First, always unplug the appliance and allow it to cool completely. For the drip tray, remove it and wash it in warm, soapy water; rinse and dry. To clean the non-stick cooking surface, use a damp, non-abrasive cloth or paper towel to wipe away any food residue or grease, then dry it thoroughly. The exterior of the appliance should also be wiped down with a damp, non-abrasive cloth to remove any spills or stains, followed by thorough drying. Remember, never put any parts of your Nostalgia EQM200 in the dishwasher. To maintain the non-stick surface and enhance quesadilla crisping, periodically apply a light coating of vegetable oil to the cooking surface.
