Water with a few drops of dish soap. Rinse, blow clean and dry.

With these answers we do not recommend the ultrasonic cleaner, so there is no how-to.

Pick your cleaner to see if it fits, which setting to use and what its manual says.

Why

Ultrasound reaches into fine channels where deposits sit. Heavy grease comes loose more easily in hot water with a degreaser – but never with flammable liquids.

Watch out for

  • Never petrol, acetone or any other flammable liquid
  • Rubber gaskets and floats: take them off
