MAINTENANCE
Stainless Steel Care and Cleaning
Stainlesssteelcontains70-80%iron,whichwill
rust. It also contains 12-30% chromium, which
forms an invisible passive lm over the steel
surfaceandacts asashieldagainstcorrosion.
As long as the protective lm remains intact,
the metal will not corrode. However, if the lm
is broken or contaminated, outside elements
can begin to breakdown the steel and begin to
form rust or discoloration. To prevent rust and
discolorationonstainlesssteel,severalimportant
stepsneedtobetaken.
CAUTION: Never use steel wool pads or
wire brushes or scrapers. Avoid
cleaning solutions that contain
alkaline or chloride.
Use alkaline based or non-chloride cleaning
solutions. Anything containing chloride will
damage the protective lm on stainless steel.
Chlorides are found in household and industrial
cleaners and also in hard water and salts. If a
chlorideoralkalinecleanerhasbeenused,rinse
repeatedlyanddrythoroughly.
Always use only soft cloths or plastic scouring
pads.Forroutinecleaning,usewarmsoapywater.
Forstubbornstainsuseanon-abrasivecleanser.
For heavy grease use a degreaser. For best
results,rubwiththegrainofthesteel.
Pittingandcrackingareearlysignsofstainless
steelbreakdown.Specialstainlesssteelcleaners
can restore and preserve the protective lm. If

highqualitystainlesssteelcleaneraccordingto
themanufacturer’sinstructions.Again,alwaysrub
withthegrainofthesteelforbestresults.
CAUTION: Never use an acid-based cleanser!
Be sure to clean all food products
from any stainless surface. Many
food products contain acid, which
can deteriorate the nish. Common
foods include tomatoes, peppers
and other vegetables.
WARNING
THE POWER MUST BE TURNED OFF
AND DISCONNECTED AT ALL TIMES
DURING MAINTENANCE OR REPAIR
FUNCTIONS.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Condenser Coil
Failure to maintain a clean condenser coil can
initiallycausehightemperaturesandexcessive
run times. Continuous operation with dirty or
cloggedcondensercoilscanresultincompres-
sor failure. Neglecting the condenser coil
cleaningprocedureswillvoidallwarrantiesand
repairorreplacementcostsassociatedwiththe
compressor.
CAUTION: To clean the condenser, never use
a high-pressure water wash, which
can damage electrical components
located at or near the condenser
coil.
Figure 2
Location of Condensing Coil
and Air Filter
The condenser coil is located and accessed at
therearoftheunit(seeFigure2).Thecondenser
coilrequiresregularcleaningandshouldbedone
every 60 days. However, if large amounts of
dust and grease accumulate sooner, clean the
condensercoilevery30days.
For light dust, use a soft, non-wire brush.
For heavier dust, use a vacuum or blow with
compressedair.
Forheavygrease,useadegreasingagentmade
specically for condenser coils on refrigeration
units. Spray the degreasing agent on the coil
andthenblowwithcompressedair.Neverwash
with high-pressure water, which can damage
theelectricalcomponentslocatedatornearthe
condensercoil.
Door Gasket Maintenance
Doorgasketsrequireregularcleaningtoprevent
mold and mildew build up and to maintain
elasticity for proper seal function. Warm soapy
waterisadequateforcleaningthegasket.Avoid
usingfullstrengthcleaningproducts,whichcan
causethegaskettobecomebrittleandresultin
impropersealfunction.Neverscrapeorcleanthe
