CLEANING:
Your QBT should be cleaned daily and as soon as possible after a spill has occurred. It is essential to maintain a
clean unit, especially if the public views the unit in your place of business. The following should be used for
cleaning:
A. The stainless steel exterior may be cleaned with any good stainless steel cleaner or polish, or with hot
soapy water followed by a clear rinse if it is very soiled.
B. All glass should be cleaned with a glass-cleaning formula. Baked-on or excessive soiling can be
removed with soap and hot water followed by a thorough rinse with fresh clean water.
C. The oven and proofer interiors should be cleaned on a regular basis with mild soap and hot water
followed by a thorough rinse with fresh clean water.
D. Proofers equipped with AUTOFILL option should have the water pan inspected and cleaned at regular
intervals as determined by usage and water hardness. To clean the water pan:
1. Ensure that the Proofer is OFF prior to cleaning the water pan.
2. Open proofer door, lift the right sidewall approximately 1/2" and swing towards the center of
cavity to access the element cover and water pan.
3. Clean scale build up from water pan and element with approved cleaner and rinse.
4. Swing right ladder back, lift approximately 1/2" and hook on studs.
To prevent problems caused by accumulation of lime and mineral, clean the water pan every week.

DOES NOT RECOMMEND the use of any strong commercial or caustic product on this equipment.
DO NOT allow any type of caustic cleaner to come into contact with any aluminum parts (such as door frames),
the silicon rubber door gaskets, or any of the sealing compound in the oven and proofer seams and joints. These
compounds may cause discoloration and degradation of these parts resulting in permanent damage. DO NOT use
bleach or bleach compounds on any chromed parts; bleach will damage chrome plating. DO NOT CLEAN THIS
APPLIANCE WITH A WATER JET OR PRESSURE WASHER.
NOTE:
NU-VU

has had very good results with a product called JIFFY CLEANER. For standard cleaning simply spray
JIFFY on and wipe off. Heavily soiled areas may require a short period of soaking. This cleaner is available
through NU-VU
®
(Part #51-0002) or through your local Rochester/Midland distributor or representative.
WARNING: Do not use oven cleaners in the oven!
Once in the side walls these cleaners are very difficult to remove, and may cause your oven to smoke or emit
noxious fumes until they are rinsed out or burned away. You will need to completely disassemble the oven
interior in order to flush out any remaining oven cleaner.
