CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained properly and kept clean.

Condenser
The condenser underneath the cabinet does not require frequent cleaning; however, satisfactory cooling depends on
adequate ventilation over this heat exchanger. It is recommended to annually clean the condenser by vacuuming and
brushing. To access the condenser, the unit must be pulled out from the installation and the lower machine compartment
access cover removed.

Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air flow openings in front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year, brush or
vacuum lint and dirt from the front grille area.

Cabinet
The cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. Never use abrasive scouring
powders.

Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Do not use abrasive powder, solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted
detergent.

Stainless Steel Parts
All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water. Use a liquid cleaner designed for stainless steel when
soapy water will not do the job. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. Do not permit citrus or tomato
juice to remain on stainless steel surfaces, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel.

BRASS PARTS. All brass parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water. When hot soapy water will not do the job,
use every day non-abrasive household cleaners.

Door Gasket
The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water, a baking soda and water solution, or a mild scouring powder.

Painted Surfaces
Wash with warm soapy water. DO NOT USE steel wool, abrasive cleansers, ammonia, acids or commercial oven cleaners
which may damage the finish.
