CHAPTER 2 CLEANING THE REFRIGERATOR
Since the refrigerated cabinet will be used to store food, cleaning is necessary for hygiene and health
protection purposes. The cleaning of the refrigerated cabinet has already been carried out at the
factory. It is suggested, however, to carry out an additional cleaning of the internal parts before use,
making sure that the power cord is unplugged.
2.1 Cleaning the interior and exterior cabinet
For this purpose the following are indicated
- the cleaning products: water and mild, non-abrasive detergents. DO NOT USE SOLVENTS AND
THINNERS
- methods for cleaning: wash the interior and exterior parts with warm water and mild soap or with a
cloth or sponge with suitable products
- disinfection: avoid substances that can alter the organoleptic characteristics of the food
- rinsing: cloth or sponge soaked in warm water. DO NOT USE WATER JETS
- frequency: weekly is recommended, the user can set different frequencies depending on the type
of food being stored.
REMARK:
Clean frequently the door seals.
Some preserved products could release some enzymes that could damage
the seals causing its quick deterioration.
For the cleaning, use only specific products for this purposes, available also
on request on our sales network.
2.2 Cleaning the condenser
The efficiency of the refrigerated cabinet is compromised by the clogging of the condenser, therefore
it is necessary to clean it on a monthly basis. Before carrying out this operation, switch off the
refrigerated cabinet, unplug the power cord and proceed as follows:
Motor on top
- for models with non-folding front panel, climb up on a safe ladder and go directly to
the condenser placed on top of the refrigerated cabinet.
With the aid of a jet of air or dry brush, eliminate, in a vertical movement (Fig.
1), the dust and lint deposited on the fins. In the case of greasy deposits,
we recommend using a brush moistened with special cleaning agents. For
models with hinged front, loosen the locking screw and rotate the front panel
on the hinges located at the top. At this point, proceed to clean as done with
the models with fixed front panel. When the operation is completed, restart
the refrigerated cabinet. Evaporators installed above the appliances are
cartaphoresis-treated to reduce corrosion problems.
During this operation, use the following personal protective equipment: goggles, respiratory
protection mask, chemically resistant gloves (gasoline-alcohol).
