PREPARING FOR STORAGE

If the beverage refrigerator will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to another place, it will be neces-
sary to defrost the unit and dry the interior. 
1. Disconnect the beverage refrigerator from the power supply by removing the power plug from the wall socket.

WARNING

: Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet. Never unplug the unit by pulling

the cord.

2. Leave the door open to allow air circulation and mold prevention, mildew and unpleasant smells.

CAUTION

: Store the unit out of the reach of children. If you have children, you may want to take addi-

tional precautions such as locking the beverage refrigerator door.

CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE 



Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves.



Wipe the interior with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of
baking soda to one quart of water.



Wipe the shelves with a mild detergent solution.



Wipe the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent.



Do not use steel wool or steel brush on the stainless steel. These will erode the stainless steel and rusting
may occur.

Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than two days
