SUGGESTED CLEANING SUPPLIES
1. Cleaner, such as Klenzade HC-10 or HC-32 from ECOLAB, Inc. or equivalent.
2. Kettle brushes in good condition
3. Sanitizer such as Klenzade XY-12.
4. Film remover such as Klenzade LC-30.
PRECAUTIONS
Before cleaning, shut off the kettle by turning the main power switch to “OFF,” and
shut off all electric power to the unit at a remote switch, such as the circuit breaker.
PROCEDURE
1. Clean food-contact surfaces as soon as possible after use. If the unit is in
continuous use, thoroughly clean and sanitize the interior and exterior at least
once every 12 hours.
2. Scrape and flush out food residues. Be careful not to scratch the kettle with
metal implements.
3. Prepare a hot solution of the detergent/cleaning compound as instructed
by the supplier. Clean the unit thoroughly. A cloth moistened with cleaning
solution can be used to clean controls, housings, and electrical conduits.
4. Rinse the kettle and draw-off valve parts thoroughly with hot water, then drain
completely.
5. As part of the daily cleaning program, clean soiled external and internal
surfaces. Remember to check the sides of the unit and control housing,
underside of cover, etc.
6. To remove burnt on foods, use a brush, sponge, cloth, plastic or rubber scraper,
or plastic wool with the cleaning solution. To reduce effort required in washing,
let the detergent solution sit in the kettle and soak into the residue. Do NOT use
abrasive materials or metal tools that might scratch the surface. Scratches
make the surface harder to clean and provide places for bacteria to grow.
Do NOT use steel wool, which may leave particles in the surface and cause
eventual corrosion and pitting.
7. The outside of the unit may be cleaned with a warm water (100°F or less)
spray. Do not use a high pressure spray.
8. The outside of the unit may be polished with a stainless steel cleaner such as
“Zepper” from Zep Manufacturing Co.
9. When equipment needs to be sanitized, use a solution equivalent to one that
supplies 200 parts per million available chlorine. Obtain advice on sanitizing
agents from your supplier of sanitizing products.
10. It is recommended that each piece of equipment be sanitized just before use.
11. Clean the kettle thoroughly. If there is difficulty removing mineral deposits or a
film left by hard water or food residues, then use a de-liming agent, following
manufacturer directions.
12. Rinse and drain the unit thoroughly before further use.
13. If cleaning problems persist, contact your cleaning product representative for
assistance. The supplier has a trained technical staff with laboratory facilities
to serve you.
