immediately after a cold room has been heated or
it is otherwise exposed to a sudden temperature
change. To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the
unit sit for one or two hours at the new room
temperature before using it.

Use a dry soft cloth to wipe the unit clean. Do
not wipe with chemical cleaning cloths, thinner,
alcohol or other chemical agents. Doing so could
damage the surface or cause discoloration.
