DAILY CLEANING PROCEDURES
1. After all food products have been removed from the cabinet,
turn the power switch to “OFF” and allow the cabinet to cool. If
cabinet is supplied with a plug, disconnect from power prior to
cleaning.
2. Remove the pan rack cassette by placing both hands on the
interior ceiling of the caddy. Lift up slightly and pull toward you.
The cassette should slide out easily. Using a clean damp cloth
with appropriate cleaner (see table below), clean the inside of
the unit and the removed parts. Wipe any residue with clean
damp cloth. Reinstall when all parts are clean and dry.
3. Inspect and clean the areas where there are vents or filters,
making sure no water gets into the internal controls or
electrical areas of the cabinet.
4. Plastic control panel should be washed with a clean damp
cloth and chlorine-free detergent. Rinse thoroughly with clean
damp cloth and allow to dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners,
waxes, car polish, or substances containing strong aromatic
solvents or alcohol.
