PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
A. General Information
•
Follow the maintenance instructions and schedules to help keep the appliance working properly.
•
Increase the frequency of maintenance as needed depending on use and water quality.
•
Contact your qualified Cleveland Range authorized service agency or Cleveland Range for more
information about maintenance scheduling, products, and services.
B. Maintenance and Service Records
1. Make a file just for maintenance records.
2. Keep a written record of daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly maintenance, service, and repair. Each
record must include at least:
•
The date of the service, maintenance, or repair.
•
A description of the service, maintenance, or repair performed.
•
Copies of purchase order(s) and invoice(s) for repair parts and service, maintenance, or
repair. Include part numbers, if applicable.
•
The name and signature of the person performing the service, maintenance, or repair.
C. Daily Maintenance
1. Clean the Appliance
•
Clean the interior and exterior of the appliance. Follow the instructions in Chapter 6.
2. Check and Change the Water
When using the Connectionless Chef Steamer frequently check the water, especially if cooking
with perforated pans. Although most food drippings will be caught by the KleanShield
, the water
may become dirty from spills falling over the edge of pans when loading, cooking, and emptying
the steamer. Change the water (see below) when the water becomes cloudy or contaminated with
food particles.
•
CHANGE THE WATER IN THE CONNECTIONLESS CHEF STEAMER AT LEAST EVERY
DAY IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN FOOD QUALITY AND KEEP THE STEAMER SANITARY
.
Note:
It may be necessary to change the water several times a shift, especially if cooking
strong-flavored foods or using perforated pans.
D. Descale the Water Reservoir
NOTICE: Only qualified Cleveland Range authorized technicians or trained onsite maintenance
personnel may perform this procedure.
1. Is Descaling Necessary?
a. Although, a Connectionless Chef should not normally require this procedure, the use of “hard”
water or failure to follow the cleaning procedures in Chapter 5 may cause the accumulation of
scale in the Connectionless Chef.
b. Scale can deposit in the bottom of the Connectionless Chef reservoir and/or in its drain.
Descaling can help prevent a costly service call if scale buildup begins to impair the
Connectionless Chef’s operation.
c. Descaling is not normally required on a Connectionless Chef. Frequency will depend on water
quality, and the frequency of shutdown and cleaning of the water reservoir as described in
Chapter 5.
d. The frequency of descaling must be determined by the owner and performed by qualified
Cleveland Range authorized technicians, or trained onsite maintenance personnel.
