- Clean Bowl: Wash the stainless steel bowl with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before storing.
- Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the machine with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
- Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling or storing the machine to prevent rust and mildew.

7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your SUPER DEAL Ice Shaver, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
