GENERAL INFORMATION
CLEANING
The case and doors are cleaned prior to shipping. However, the case should be thoroughly cleaned before start-up and routinely
thereafter to maintain a clean appearance. Use mild detergent and warm water (never an abrasive cleaner) to wipe out the inside of the
case. Wash down all glass doors with glass cleaner. Do not use any products containing silicon on anti-fog glass coatings. Clean interior
glass reduces fogging and increases visibility. The case will remain bright and sparkling with just a few minutes of cleaning each week.
Internal components can be cleaned after removal of access panels. The case drain should be regularly cleared of debris and price tags.
Coils may be cleaned with a garden hose or pails of water. Cases that use pump, drain pans and condensate evaporators should be
cleaned with a minimum amount of water. The drain should be blocked and the water removed with a shop vacuum.
Do not use high-pressure water or steam to clean the interior.
SHELF LOCATION
The shelves are adjustable in 1" increments on cantilever shelf cases and may be located in any position for best display advantage.
Be sure brackets are completely seated.
Wire shelf brackets are stamped with “R” for Right and “L” for left to aid installation.
SHELVES
Zero Zone manufactures many different styles of shelves, baskets, and product stops. The shelves and baskets are placed on the shelf
brackets for shipping. Solid shelves have three parts. A solid center section and two snap-in brackets. Some of the baskets may be
reversed and used as a typical shelf. The fully assembled shelves are installed in cases prior to shipping.
Solid shelves can be disassembled for cleaning. A screwdriver can be used to spread the snap open to remove the brackets from the
center section.
LOADING THE CASE
The case may be loaded with merchandise after it has been operated for at least 24 hours with correct case temperature and proper
control operation. While loading the shelves, leave an air space between the top of the merchandise and the shelf above it so the
customer can remove the merchandise. The air space allows an air curtain on top of the product. Product should not extend beyond the
front of the shelves or block the return air grill.
The shelf loads are as follows:
