SECTION 3 • CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
13.
The cleanliness and appearance of this equipment will contribute considerably to operating
efficiency and savory, appetizing food. There is an important relationship between
cleanliness and food flavor and aroma. Good equipment that is kept clean works
better and lasts longer.
Under normal circumstances, this oven should provide you with long and trouble-
free service. There is no preventative maintenance required, however, the following
Equipment Care Guide will maximize the potential life and trouble-free operation of this oven.
1.
CLEAN DAILY
Disconnect the oven from the power source.
Remove all detachable items such as wire
shelves, side racks, and drip pans. Clean these
items separately. Clean the interior metal
surfaces of the oven with a damp, clean cloth
and any good commercial detergent or grease
solvent at the recommended strength. Use a
plastic scouring pad or oven cleaner for
difficult areas. Rinse carefully to remove all
residue and wipe dry.
NOTE: Avoid the use of
abrasive cleaning
compounds, chloride
based cleaners, or
cleaners containing
quaternary salts.
Never use hydrochloric
acid (muriatic acid) on stainless steel.
Always follow appropriate state or local
health (hygiene) regulations regarding
all applicable cleaning and sanitation
requirements for equipment.
2.
CLEAN THE EXTERIOR OF THE CABINET
WITH A STAINLESS STEEL POLISH.
To help maintain the protective film coating on
polished stainless steel, clean the exterior of the
cabinet with a cleaner recommended for
stainless steel surfaces. Spray the cleaning
agent on a clean cloth and wipe with the grain
of the stainless steel.
3.
CHECK OVERALL CONDITION
OF THE OVEN ONCE A MONTH.
Check the oven once a month for physical
damage and loose screws. Correct any
problems before they begin to interfere with the
operation of the oven.
4.
CHECK THE COOLING FAN
IN THE OVEN CONTROL AREA.
While the oven is warm, check that the cooling
fan in the oven control area is functioning.
The fan is located on the back of the unit,
toward the top.
AT NO TIME SHOULD THE INTERIOR OR
EXTERIOR BE STEAM CLEANED, HOSED
DOWN, OR FLOODED WITH WATER OR
LIQUID SOLUTION OF ANY KIND. DO NOT
USE WATER JET TO CLEAN.
