You typically want to clean your salt cell by soaking its titanium plates in a solution of 1 part muriatic acid and 4 parts water. You can buy pre-mixed salt cell "cleaning solutions" from local pool stores, or mix this yourself from the muriatic acid you likely have on hand that you use to lower you pool's pH. The exact process will vary by model - some have removable titanium plates that you can soak in a vessel, some have a cleaning cap or stand that allow you to fill your cell with the cleaning solution. You'll want to allow the cell to soak for about 10-15 minutes typically; you'll see "fizzing" when the acidic solution is dissolving the mineral scaling. Multiple cleanings in a row may be required; clean the cell as many times as necessary so that no fizzing occurs when placed in freshly-mixed cleaning solution.
