CLEANING COILS

NEVER USE SHARP OBJECTS AROUND 
COILS. Use a soft brush or vacuum brush to 
clean debris from coils. Do not puncture coils! 

Do not bend fins. Contact an authorized  
service technician if a coil is punctured, 
cracked, or otherwise damaged.

ICE 

in or on the coil indicates the refrigeration 

and defrost cycle is not operating properly. 
Contact an authorized service technician to 
determine the cause of icing and to make 
adjustments as necesssary. To maintain  
product integrity, move all product to a cooler 
until the unit has returned to normal  
operating temperatures.

Do NOT use chlorine or ammonia-based 
cleaners to clean aluminum coils.

CLEANING UNDER MERCHANDISERS

Remove splashguards not sealed to floor.  
Use a vacuum with a long wand attachment  
to remove accumulated dust and debris from 
under the merchandiser.

REMOVING SCRATCHES FROM BUMPER

Most scratches and dings can be removed 
using the following procedure.
•Use steel wool to smooth out the surface area 
of the bumper.
•Clean area.
•Apply vinyl or car wax and polish surface for 
a smooth glossy finish.

MAINTAINING FLUORESCENT LAMPS

Fluorescent lamps should not be allowed to 
run to failure. If a re-lamp schedule is not in 
place, the tubes should be inspected for signs 
of degradation (blackened ends). Degraded or 
failed tubes should be replaced. 

Allowing severly degraded lamps to operate 
may cause a ballast failure or could expose 
the lamp holder to excessive heat. Replacing 
degraded bulbs is more cost effective than 
replacing ballast and lamp-holders.

Traditional re-lamp programs are 18-to-24 
month intervals. In the absence of a re-lamp 
program, a yearly inspection of the lighting 
system is recommended. 

1.  Inspect all lamp sockets and plug-receptacle 
connections for signs of arching. Replace any 
component that shows signs of arching.

2.  Make sure all unused receptacles have their 
close-off covers securely installed.

3.  Make sure proper cleaning procedures are 
followed. Lights and fans MUST be turned off 
when a case is cleaned and MUST be allowed to 
dry before turning power back on.

4.  Do not use a pressure nozzle to clean inside 
of case.
