Cleaning and Preventative Maintenance
The cleanliness and appearance of this equipment will contribute considerably to its
operating efficiency. Make certain the cabinet and door gasket are kept free of any debris
that may accumulate. Good equipment that is kept clean works better and lasts longer.
CLEAN THE UNIT REGULARLY:
1. Disconnect the cabinet from the power source.
2. Remove all detachable items such as blanket support assembly and shelf for the
blanket chamber and the metal basket and basket rail supports for the fluid chamber.
Clean these items separately.
NOTICE:
Never use abrasive cleaning compounds, chloride based cleaners, or cleaners
containing quaternary salts. Never use hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) on
stainless steel.
3. Clean the interior metal surfaces of the cabinet with a damp cloth and any mild
commercial detergent. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaning compounds. Rinse surfaces
by wiping with sponge & clean warm water. Remove excess water with sponge and
wipe dry with a clean cloth or air dry. Leave doors open until interior is completely dry.
4. Interior can be wiped with a sanitizing solution after cleaning and rinsing. This solution must be approved for
use on stainless steel surfaces. Replace support assembly.
5. Clean the exterior of the cabinet with a cleaner recommended for stainless steel surfaces. Spray the cleaner on a
clean cloth and wipe with the grain of the stainless steel.
6. Clean the window glass with a standard commercial glass cleaner.
7. Wipe control panel, door vents, door handles, and door gaskets thoroughly since these areas harbor debris.
8. Wipe door gaskets and control panel dry with a clean, soft cloth.
9. To help maintain the protective film coating on polished stainless steel, clean the exterior of the cabinet with a
cleaner recommended for stainless steel surfaces. Spray the cleaning agent on a clean cloth and wipe with the
grain of the stainless steel.
Always follow appropriate state or local health (hygiene) regulations regarding all applicable cleaning and
