tips and troubleshooting
Before calling for service, check the following:
1. Check electrical power supply to the equipment for
connection.
2. Check fixture loading. Overstocking case will affect
its proper operation.
3. If frost is collecting on fixture and/or product, check
that Humidity Control is working properly, and that
no outside doors or windows are open - allowing
moisture to enter store.
FOR PROMPT SERVICE
When contacting the factory,
be sure to have the Case Model and Serial
Number handy. This information is on a plate
located on the case itself.
stainless steel Cleaning and Care
There are three basic things, which can break down your
stainless steel’s passivity layer and allow corrosion.
1. Mechanical abrasion
Mechanical Abrasion means those things that
will scratch the steels surface. Steel Pads, wire
Brushes, and Scrapers are prime examples.
2. Water
Water comes out of our tap in varying degrees of
hardness. Depending on what part of the country
you live in, you may have hard or soft water. Hard
water may leave spots. Also, when heated, hard
water leaves deposits behind that if left to sit, will
break down the passive layer and rust your stainless
steel. Other deposits from food preparation and
service must be properly removed.
3. Chlorides
Chlorides are found nearly everywhere. They
are in water, food and table salt. One of the worst
perpetrators of chlorides can come from household
and industrial cleaners.
Don’t Despair! Here are a few steps that can help prevent
stainless steel rust.
1. Use the Proper tools
When cleaning your stainless steel products, take
care to use non-abrasive tools. Soft Clothes and
plastic scouring pads will NOT harm the steel’s
passive layer. Stainless steel pads can also be
used but the scrubbing motion must be in the same
direction of the manufacturer’s polishing marks.
2. Clean With the Polish lines
Some stainless steels come with visible polishing
lines or “grain”. When visible lines are present, you
should ALWAYS scrub in a motion that is parallel to
them. When the grain cannot be seen, play it safe
and use a soft cloth or plastic scouring pad.
