Cosmetic Care & Maintenance
SALON REFRIGERATOR
The cabin refrigerator periodically requires the compressor
coils to be cleaned off. To accomplish this task, make sure
the refrigerator circuit breaker is off and all food cleared
out. You need to remove the 4 screws inserted in the
outside trim of the refrigerator. Once all the screws are
out, you will be able to access the coils at the rear of the
unit by pulling it out of the cavity. You should be able to
disconnect the plug at this point. Set the unit on a stool to
clean the coils using a soft brush. Reinstall.
A good time to clean the inside of the refrigerator is just
after defrosting the unit. Once it is to room temperature,
clean all surfaces and trays with a soft cloth and mild
cleaner. This will help remove any odors. After the unit is
plugged back in insert a small box of baking powder to
help remove any odors produced by future stored food.
When leaving the boat for extended periods make sure
the circuit breaker is off, all material is removed from the
refrigerator and the door is wedged open.
CABIN ENTRY DOOR TRACK
Periodically clean the cabin door track by using a vacuum
with an upholstery nozzle. Then wipe off any residue with
a damp cloth and warm water. Do not spray the door track
with silicone spray, oil or type A lubricant since a slippery
surface could produce a fall.
GFCI DUPLEX RECEPTACLE
Ground fault outlets
must be tested monthly.
To test, depress the
reset button. Next, press
the test button. The
reset button should pop
out. If it does not,
contact a qualified
electrician or marine
professional.
Since all receptacles are
connected through the
GFCI circuit they
should show zero
voltage when the GFCI
test button is pressed. A
plug-in type tester can be obtained at most hardware stores
for testing outlets. Corrosion is your worst enemy with
the GFCI duplex especially in high humidity environments.
To maintain wood floors clean with a mild detergent. Do
not use any heavy abrasive cleaners since they could
scratch and subsequently damage the finish coat. Also,
do not use bleach, ammonia or acid type products. Above
all follow floor manufacturer product care guidelines.
