Descaling the Unit (Monthly)

prolong the life of the Bain Marie. Do NOT use cleaning agents with chlorides or other harsh chemicals as this can cause corrosion

Cleaning and Maintenance
IMPORTANT
Corrosion Prevention:
This unit MUST be completely drained, cleaned and emptied DAILY.
Leaving water in the unit for an extended period while continually topping up with water,
will cause the chloride levels to increase. As the water evaporates the chlorides and other
impurities are left behind becoming concentrated.
Without daily cleaning the concentrated build up of chlorides and impurities in the water
will corrode the stainless steel of the unit.
Failure to completely drain, clean and empty the unit daily will void the warranty!
1. Isolate from the power supply
2. The unit MUST be drained before cleaning. Ensure the waste connection is left OPENED to allow sufficient drainage while cleaning
3. Remove all Dividers, Element Covers & Gastronorm Pans
4. Dividers, Element Covers & Gastronorm Pans can be cleaned in a kitchen sink with warm soapy water. Thoroughly wipe dry with a soft
cloth after cleaning, do NOT allow to air dry
5. Clean the unit and elements with warm (not hot) soapy water and a sponge. After cleaning, flush the unit with water
6. Ensure all due care is taken when cleaning the elements, as they can become damaged
7. Thoroughly wipe the unit and elements dry with a soft cloth. Do NOT let water pool in the unit, check crevices and folds
