ESTIMATED CLEANING TIME: 5 to 10 minutes per unit daily, 20 minutes weekly
FREQUENCY: Daily cleaning of exterior & door gaskets. Weekly cleaning of interior.
PROCEDURE:

1. A non-chlorine based cleaner or mild detergent and warm water applied with a soft cloth or sponge to all con-

tact surfaces.

2. Immediately rinse off cleaning agent(s), using clean warm water, clean soft cloth or sponge.

3. Dry with a soft clean cloth, removing standing water as soon as possible.

4. A more thorough cleaning of the interior should be done weekly (more frequently as necessary).

5. The condensing unit air filter (front top left) should be removed and thoroughly rinsed in hot clean water at

least once per quarter.

NOTES:

1. Never use hydrochloric acid, wire brushes, steel wool, scrapers, or chlorine based cleaners on stainless steel

surfaces, since they will break down the passivity layer and allow corrosion to occur.

2. On stainless steel surfaces, you may use a soft bristle brush or Scotch-Brite® pad for more stubborn stains.

Always scrub with the direction of the grain. Follow with a thorough cleaning as described above.

3. Deposits from food preparation must be properly removed. Even hard water deposits will rust stainless steel,

if not removed.

4. Door gaskets are most often overlooked when cleaning. Failure to clean them regularly will lead to premature

failure, since alcohol and moisture build-up breaks down the gasket material.
