GENERAL MAINTENANCE

P-SERIES

Page 33 of 100

The most important facets of proper vender care and
maintenance are the electrical power supplied to it,
leveling, and cleanliness of the machine and its
components.

POWER

The vender must be connected to a dedicated
120VAC, 15 Amp circuit (U.S. and Canada).

CAUTION:

REMOVE POWER TO THE VENDER PRIOR TO
CONNECTING / DISCONNECTING ANY
ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS FOR TESTING OR
REPLACEMENT.

Periodically inspect the power supply
cord for damage. If the cord or plug is
worn or damaged, it must be replaced
with a power supply cord of the same
type, size and specification as originally
provided with the machine.

DO NOT USE THE VENDING MACHINE
UNTIL THE WORN OR DAMAGED CORD
IS REPLACED.

The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) must be

tested frequently and before each use in accordance

with the instructions provided on the GFCI device.

IF THE GFCI DOES NOT PASS THE TEST, DO

NOT USE THE MACHINE.

Unplug the supply cord from the receptacle and call
the Dixie-Narco Technical Support Group for
assistance at 1-803-266-5001.

CLEANING

DO NOT USE A WATER JET OR
NOZZLE TO CLEAN THE VENDER

SIGN FACE

The polycarbonate sign face requires proper
cleaning to prolong its service life. Periodically clean
the sign as follows:

Rinse the sign with a soft cloth or sponge soaked in
warm water. If necessary, use a mild soap to loosen
any dirt or grime. DO NOT SCRUB or use a brush
or squeegee. Scrubbing may cause damage to
sign’s clear ultraviolet resistant coating (prevents
yellowing). Repeat the above steps as necessary.
To prevent spotting, dry the sign using a soft cloth.

CABINET

Wash the cabinet with a good detergent or soap
mixed with warm water. Wax the vender often with a
good grade of automobile wax. Any corrosion inside
of the vender should be removed with a fine steel
wool and the area should be painted with aluminum
paint. Repair any scratches on painted surfaces to
prevent corrosion.

DRAIN PAN, DRAIN TUBE, AND DRAIN HOSE

To prevent mold and mildew growth,
and to avoid personal injury or
property damage, the drain pan,
drain tube, and drain hose must be
properly aligned and routed. Ensure
nothing obstructs the drain tube or
drain hose and that the hose is not
bent, pinched, or twisted in such a
way as to prevent the flow of
condensate. Periodically inspect the
drain pan, drain tube, and drain hose
for alignment and the presence of
dirt, debris, mold, and mildew. Clean
as needed.

THE COMPRESSOR ELECTRICAL
CIRCUIT IS ALWAYS LIVE WHEN
THE PLUG IS CONNECTED TO AN
ELECTRICAL OUTLET

REFRIGERATION CONDENSER

Check the condenser periodically for dirt or lint build-
up. Remove build-up with a brush or vacuum, or
blow the dirt out of the condenser with compressed
air and an approved safety nozzle. Ensure nothing
obstructs the air intake at the bottom of the main
door. Ensure nothing obstructs the air exhaust at
the rear of the cabinet.
