Care and Maintenance

• 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. Clogged
condenser coils will result in decreased performance, advanced component failure and a risk of fire. See
pages 17 -19
for condenser coil cleaning instructions.
• Conduct regular inspection and cleaning of the door gaskets, door tracks and door track wheels to ensure
that the doors are sealing completely. Worn out or damaged gaskets and door track wheels may lead to 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. Use the interior drain to get rid of residue. Use the accompanying plug to seal the drain when finished. 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 come in contact with electronic parts to avoid the risk of fire.
• Clean the exterior of the product with mild soap and warm water. Do not allow moisture 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 resulting from improper maintenance is not
covered under warranty.
