CLEANING DISCHARGE HONEYCOMB
Discharge air honeycombs should be cleaned
every six months. Dirty honeycombs will
cause merchandisers to perform poorly.
The honeycombs may be cleaned with a vac-
uum cleaner. Soap and water may be used if
all water is removed from the honeycombs cells
before replacing. Be careful not to damage the
honeycombs.
1. Using a flat object such as a screw driver,
compress the honeycomb and remove it
from its retainer.
2. Clean and dry the air honeycombs.
3. After cleaning, replace in reverse order.
Damaged honeycombs must be replaced.
CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
Use non-abrasive cleaning materials, and
always polish with grain of the steel. Use warm
water or add a mild detergent to the water and
apply with a cloth. Always wipe rails dry after
wetting.
Use alkaline chlorinated or non-chlorine
containing cleaners such as window cleaners
and mild detergents. Do not use cleaners
containing salts as this may cause pitting and
rusting of the stainless steel finish. Do not use
bleach.
CLEANING SOLAR THERMOMETER
GSVM models have solar thermometers. The
thermometer is located at the top, front center
of the merchandiser’s cabinet interior.
To clean the thermometer:
1. Remove the two screws securing the ther-
mometer to its mounting bracket. Remove
the sensing element from the clip
2. Use non-abrasive cleaning materials and a
mild detergent to clean thermometer.
3. Be sure to wipe the element clean of any
residues.
