[AuroraMarie]

Keeping your Nostalgia EQM200 Quesadilla Maker clean ensures it performs at its best. Here's a simple guide:

1. Safety First: Unplug the appliance from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Drip Tray Care: Once the appliance is cool, remove the drip tray. Wash it with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Cooking Surface Clean-Up: Gently wipe the non-stick cooking surface with a damp, non-abrasive cloth or paper towel to remove any food residue and grease. Make sure to dry it completely.
4. Exterior Maintenance: Use a damp, non-abrasive cloth to wipe down the exterior of the quesadilla maker, removing any spills or stains. Dry the exterior completely.

To maintain the non-stick surface and optimize the quesadilla crisping, periodically apply a light coating of vegetable oil to the cooking surface. Important reminder: the Nostalgia EQM200 Quesadilla Maker parts are not dishwasher safe.
