HYDROFIT™ Owner’s Information Manual
WARNING: The use and ownership of this work is defined in the legend upon the front page hereof.
Protect all vulnerable surfaces from damage, especially when an elevator is used for
moving furniture or equipment or similar non-passenger activities. Protective pads
may be obtained from Otis to protect your elevator.
Otis Elevator Company recommends the following cleaning techniques:
Glass
Clean with a non-abrasive glass cleaner and a soft lint-free cloth.
Stainless Steel
Use a soft lint-free cloth with a reputable stainless steel cleaner. Follow the grain of
brushed stainless steel. Do not use any other types of cleaning powders or creams
or any grade of steel wool.
Bronze-Tinted Stainless Surfaces
Use a soft lint-free cloth dampened with soap and water and finish with a soft dry
cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents designed for un-lacquered brass or abrasive
materials.
Laminated Surfaces
Use a soft lint-free cloth dampened with soap and water. Do not use any cleaning
powders, creams, or sprays.
Painted Surfaces
Use a soft lint-free cloth dampened with soap and water. Do not use any cleaning
powders or creams.
Landing Doors and Frames
Landing doors and frames should be cleaned in accordance with the preceding
recommendations and protected against damage when necessary.
Car and Landing Door Sills
It is essential to regularly clean all debris from the car and landing door sill grooves.
First immobilize the elevator (see note below) with the doors open at a convenient
landing.
Then carefully brush out accumulated dirt and extract with a vacuum cleaner.
Use your independent service keyswitch or other supervisory system control lock (i.e.,
recall to the lobby) to immobilize the elevator. If you are unsure about carrying out the
task safely, please call Otis first.
