CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top
performance, and long life.
Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and
lukewarm water solution such as 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart
of water.
Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and
rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to prevent water
spotting. If the door panel is stainless steel, it can discolor when exposed
to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel with a cloth dampened
with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Never use an abrasive or
caustic cleaning agent.
