Care and Maintenance 15
• Unplug the unit before cleaning, repairing or replacing parts.
• Do not spray the unit with water to avoid electric shock, component malfunction or the risk of fire.
• Do not use any flammable cleaning products on or around the unit to prevent the risk of fire.
• Do not use household or industrial chemical cleaners, acidic or chlorine based solutions, degreasers, wire
brushes, scrapers, steel pads, acidic solutions or other abrasive products. These will damage the stainless
steel’s passivity layer resulting in advanced corrosion.
• The condenser coil builds up lint, dust and grease over time and will require monthly cleaning. A clogged
condenser coil will result in decreased performance, advanced component failure and a risk of fire. See
Chapter 6 for condenser coil cleaning instructions.
• Conduct regular inspection and cleaning of the door gaskets to ensure that they are sealing completely.
Worn out or damaged gaskets will have gaps that will compromise cabinet temperature leading to possible
food spoilage or component failure.
• Clean the interior surface of the unit with mild soap and warm water. Do not let water accumulate inside the
unit. To prevent water damage, wipe the interior of the unit with a dry cloth as needed. Do not use steel wool,
strong acids, concentrated detergents, bleaches, cleaning waxes, polishers and other abrasive cleaners. Do
not allow moisture to come in contact with electronic parts to avoid the risk of fire.
• Clean the exterior of the product with a stainless steel cleaner to restore the condition and passivation of
the stainless steel surface. Do not use steel wool, strong acids, concentrated detergents, bleaches, cleaning
waxes, polishers and other abrasive cleaners. Do not allow moisture to come in contact with electronic parts
to avoid the risk of fire.
• Acidic products and products containing vinegar must be stored in sealed containers to prevent acid
damage to the interior of the unit and the evaporator coil. Rust and corrosion resulting from improper
maintenance is not covered under warranty.
6. Care and Maintenance
This section applies to all Everest products. Regular care and maintenance of your appliance will
significantly extend service life and dependability. In severe cases, lack of upkeep will contribute to
the rapid decline in performance and component health. Care and maintenance is the product owner’s
personal responsibility. Warranty is void if these guidelines are not met.
