DAILY CLEANING PROCEDURES
1. Turn cabinet OFF, unplug cabinet from outlet and allow to cool
completely.
2. Pull the dispenser tubes up and out, place them on a work
surface. Wipe them down with a damp cloth and allow to dry.
3. Place the dispensers back into the cabinet and clean the cabi-
net exterior with a mild, non-abrasive soap or detergent in a
warm water solution. A commercial stainless steel cleaner
may also be used.
4. To clean stainless steel surfaces, use only cleansers, deter-
gents, degreasers, or sanitizers that are certified to the chlo-
ride-free and phosphate-free, and only in recommended con-
centrations or mixing ratios. After cleaning and sanitizing, rinse
all exposed surfaces thoroughly with large amounts of clear
water. Wipe off any standing liquid or residue from all horizon-
tal surfaces in corners, or near edges.
CAUTION
:
Beware
of sharp edges with
sheet metal during
cleaning process.
CAUTION
:
Do not
use steel wool pads
as they will result in
rusting from the ferrous metal
in the pads.
CAUTION: Cleansers, detergents, degreasers, sanitizers, or bleaching agents that contain chlo-
rides or phosphates will cause permanent damage to stainless steel products. The damage appears
as pits, eruptions, voids, small holes, cracks, severe discoloration, or dulling of the metal finish. Wa-
ter with high chloride content can also damage stainless steel. If unsure of your water quality, we
recommend you have it tested.
Use of cleaning agents that are not recommended for stainless steel may cause permanent damage to the
cabinet. THIS DAMAGE IS PERMANENT, COSTLY TO REPAIR AND IS NOT COVERED BY THE WAR-
RANTY.
