CLEANING

Turn the main power switch OFF, unplug and allow the unit to
cool before cleaning. DO NOT spray or splash water on the
heater, control panel, timer or wiring.

1. Racks or shelves are easily removed without tools for

cleaning, Simply lift up and pull out. The tray racks may be
hand washed or run through an automatic washer.

2. Before cleaning, unplug the heating assembly. Remove the

heater by grasping handles at rear of the heater. Pull up and
to the back to avoid damage to heater controls. Angle heater
so it fits through one of the door openings.

3. To clean stainless steel surfaces use only cleansers,

detergents, degreasers, or sanitizers that are certified to be
"chloride-free" and "phosphate-free," and cleansers,
degreasers, or sanitizers only in the recommended
concentrations. DO NOT exceed recommended
concentrations or mixing ratios. After cleaning and sanitizing,
rinse all exposed surfaces thoroughly with large amounts of
clean, clear water. Wipe off any standing liquid or residue
from all surfaces, corners and rear edges.

4. Vinyl trim should be washed with a chlorine-free detergent

and water. Rinse thoroughly with clear water and allow to
dry. Never use abrasive cleaners, waxes, car polish, or
substances containing strong aromatic solvents or alcohol.
Use of direct steam / hot water cleaning at temperatures
above 190 F may result in “bubbling” or loosening of vinyl
adhesive.

IMPORTANT:

Cleansers, detergents, degreasers, sanitizers or bleaching agents that contain

chlorides or phosphates will cause permanent damage to stainless steel products. This damage
appears as pits, eruptions, voids, small holes, cracks, severe discolorations or dulling of the metal
finish. Water with a high chlorine content can also damage stainless steel. If unsure of your water
quality, we recommend you have it tested. THIS DAMAGE IS PERMANENT, COSTLY TO
REPAIR, AND IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
