Hi I want to make sure I am taking the best care of my machine, what techniques do you all use for cleaning it? I have basically just been flushing it out after every use, but have trouble getting into the vent on the left side, which seems to be accumulating stuff... also, when I purchased it I was told by the store that the little switch thing on the right side (inside) should be in the "Up" position, but I haven't seen any mention of that anywhere... Is that correct?

Thanks!!
