Good sanitation practice demands that all food preparation equipment be cleaned regularly (only use
non-toxic, food grade cleaners). A clean looking, well-kept machine is one of the best ways of advertising
your product.
Note: It is extremely important to follow all of the cleaning procedures, otherwise parts damage
and equipment failure will result. The warranty does not cover parts that are damaged due
to improper cleaning.
DAILY KETTLE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Under no circumstances should the kettle be removed from the machine for cleaning.
CAUTION: A hot kettle will cause burns if you touch it with your hand. Allow kettle to cool at least
1 hour before attempting to clean. DO NOT use ice or water to cool down a hot kettle!
Severe kettle damage will result!
1.
When cool, wipe the outside of the kettle with a clean, soft cloth. DO NOT use oven cleaners or
abrasive materials as they will damage the kettle.
2.
Every night, mix Gold Medal’s Heat’n Kleen solution (Item No. 2095), 2 tablespoons per gallon
of water. It is not necessary to use the entire gallon at once; only use enough to fill the kettle
1/2 inch deep.
3.
Turn the kettle heat ON. When the water starts to boil, turn the kettle heat OFF.
4.
Allow to cool for at least 1 hour, then dump the solution into a bucket and wipe the inside of
the kettle with a clean cloth. Make sure all of the solution goes into the bucket; do not spill any
in the interior of the machine.
For extra dirty kettles, the process may be repeated; or, after turning the kettle heat OFF, allow
solution to sit in the kettle overnight. The next morning, dump the solution into a bucket and
wipe the inside of the kettle with a clean cloth.
