General Cleaning
Exterior Cleaning (As Required)
Black and White Models:
• Surfaces may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive
cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.
Stainless Steel Models:
• Stainless steel surfaces and components can discolor when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt water or
cleaners with bleach.
• Keep your stainless steel unit looking new by cleaning with a good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish on a
monthly basis. For best results use Claire
®
Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line
Corporation (P/N 173348). Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination
that could lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning on a weekly basis.
• Do not clean with steel wool pads.
• Do not use cleaners that are not specifically intended for stainless steel on stainless steel surfaces (this
includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).
• If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it quickly with Bon-Ami
®
or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser
®
and a
non-abrasive cloth. Always clean in the direction of the grain. Always finish this process with Claire Stainless Steel
Polish and Cleaner or comparable product to prevent further problems.
• Using abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite™ will cause the graining in the stainless steel to become blurred.
• Rust that is not cleaned up promptly can penetrate into the surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of the
rust may not be possible.
Interior Cleaning (As Required)
• Disconnect power to the unit. Clean the interior and all removed components using a mild non-abrasive detergent
and warm water solution applied with a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth. Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and
clean water.
• Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. These types of cleaners may transmit taste to the
interior products and damage or discolor the interior.
