Cleaning and Maintenance
Important: Before cleaning, the unit should be put into standby and then the power supply should be
turned off at the mains. Please do not plug or unplug the unit with wet hands. Only when cleaning has
been completed and the unit is dry should the cabinet be turned back on at the mains.
Suitable P.P.E (Personnel Protective Equipment) should be worn at all times.
Regular Maintenance:
> As and when required remove all product and shelving (beware of cold and or sharp components) from
the unit. Clean exterior and interior surfaces with mild liquid detergent, following the directions on the
pack at all times. Rinse surfaces with a damp cloth containing clean water. Never use wire wool, scouring
pads/powders or high alkaline cleaning agents i.e bleaches, acids and chlorines as these may cause
damage. Dry the unit thoroughly before re-using.
> Clean the condenser at least once a month (it is located behind the unitcover; beware of hot and possible
sharp components). Remove the unit cover securing screw(s) positioned underneath the front of the
unitcover. Then lift up the cover to access the condenser coil. Once the cover is removed please do
not leave the unit unattended. Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dirt/dust. If there are any
stubborn grease deposits left on or through the condenser call your supplier to carry out a full service (this
is normally chargeable). Failure to maintain the condenser may invalidate the warranty of the condensing
unit and cause premature failure of the motor/compressor. DO NOT use a wire brush to clean the
condenser. Re-t any panels removed after cleaning.
