anti-bacterial detergent and warm water with a soft cloth, may be
used to clean the general surfaces within the appliance evaporator
chamber. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Inspect foam gaskets located
on cold air side of insulated Cassette® bulkhead for any signs of
bacterial contamination (decomposition and/or odor) . If contami
-
nation is at all prevalent, the foam gaskets must be replaced. Call
for service.
4. Cleaning Condensate Drain Tubes: Refrigeration Cassette® must be
removed according to Section G of this manual. Condensate drain
tubes run from the evaporator pan to the condensate pan on all
HABCO® Cold Space Merchandiser® models.

should be used to clean foam gaskets within the evaporator cham-
ber, and rubber Cassette® compression gaskets. Do Not Pull, Re
-
move, Place Undo Stress on, or Submerge Cassette® or Gaskets
