FEATURES OF THE UNIT

CLEANING AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Weekly or sooner, as required:

1. Disconnect the power source before cleaning. Remove all products and place in a proper cooler.

2. Clean the interior and exterior with a mild soap or detergent solution and then rinse with a warm

baking soda solution (one cup of baking soda to one gallon of warm water). Dry the interior

completely before replacing products.

3. Clean the condenser unit periodically by vacuuming the unit compartment, especially the

condenser unit coil (it looks like a small auto radiator). If the condenser coil has accumulated dirt

and grease (possible in heavy traffic areas or a kitchen), use a strong cleaning solution. If you find

any oil in the condensing unit compartment, call a qualified service person immediately.

4. Empty out and clean the drain pan located next to the condensing unit as required. Check regularly

for excessive water accumulation.

5. Plug in the cabinet and wait until the proper temperature is achieved before reloading the cabinet

with product.
