3. Always turn off and unplug the unit before wiping.

Note: Before seasoning the wok, it is recommended to clean the wok before first use. The Wok, Lid, Deep Frying Rack, and Wok Stand are dishwasher safe.

Seasoning the Wok

1. Make sure the Wok has been thoroughly cleaned and dried.
2. Heat the Wok and rub with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil on the wok surface in a circular motion using a dry towel or multiple layers of paper towels, using tongs for protection.
   (
   Surface Will Be Hot!)
3. Make sure the entire Wok is coated with oil, then allow the Wok to cool to room temperature.
4. Repeat this process twice, ensuring the Wok is cooled each time.
5. The Wok is now seasoned!

Cleaning the Wok

1. After Wok has been used to cook, simply wipe Wok clean with a paper towel or a dry rag.
   • If the Wok is very dirty and requires a more thorough cleaning, wipe the Wok using clean oil or a bamboo brush (eucalyptus has antibacterial properties) to scratch off any encrustations. Simply run water into Wok and scrub away until residue is gone.
2. Dry the Wok thoroughly after cleaning.
3. When all residue has been removed from the Wok, repeat the seasoning process.

If a more thorough cleaning is needed

1. Heat the Wok.
2. Add 2 tablespoons of peanut oil and add several tablespoons of kosher salt.
3. Give Wok a hard scrub with a folded paper towel.
   (
   Surface Will be Hot!)
4. Cool the Wok.
5. Rinse under running water and dry thoroughly.
   • Afterward, a light rub of peanut oil can be applied to Wok once again.

Note: The "conventional" ideas of cleanliness and hygiene with cookware are somewhat counterproductive when dealing with a genuine wok—the residues that remain on the Wok's surface after dry-wiping it after use will, over time, form a layer that will serve to enhance the taste of your stir-fried foods.
