CARE AND MAINTENANCE
HOW TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN YOUR UNIT
Condenser
The condenser coil under the cabinet for forced air unit does require frequent cleaning. Satisfactory cooling
depends on adequate ventilation over the condenser coil. Be sure that nothing obstructs the air flow openings
in the lower front of the cabinet.
Cabinet
The stainless steel cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water.
Never use abrasive scouring powders.
Interior
It is important to keep the interior of the refrigerator/beer dispenser clean to help prevent food from becoming
contaminated during storage. The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be
carried out (ideally once every 1 or 2 weeks) in the refrigerator. Remove the shelves from cabinet and door. Wash
shelves and storage bins in warm water and detergent; rinse in clean water and dry before replacing. Wash
interior compartment with mild soap and water. Wipe over the interior surfaces with warm water and detergent
or baking soda dissolved in warm water (add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to each 1 pint [500 ml] of water). Do
not use an abrasive powder, solvent, polish cleaner, abrasive cloths, highly perfumed, strong smelling cleaners or
undiluted detergent on any part of the refrigerator or beer dispenser. Rinse with clean water. To help remove “old
stale refrigerator” smells, add a few drops of vanilla essence or vinegar to the water before cleaning.
Exterior – Stainless Exterior Door
It is important when cleaning the exterior door surface of your refrigerator or beer dispenser, to only use liquid
dishwashing detergent, dissolved in warm water. Dry the door with a clean, lint-free cloth. The use of any
abrasive or stainless steel cleaners and solvents will damage the door surface.
Other Exterior Surfaces and Door Gasket
Clean all other exterior surfaces with warm water and detergent. If necessary, clean the magnetic door gasket
with an old toothbrush, warm water and detergent.
Interior – Glass Shelves
Clean with warm water and detergent or a glass cleaner. If cleaning the shelves without removing from the
cabinet, use only warm water and detergent as a glass cleaner can damage the plastic components of your
refrigerator/beer dispenser.
Important Note:
Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents that may attack the plastic components of your
refrigerator and cause them to crack. It is important to use only warm water and a small amount of liquid dishwashing
detergent on any plastic components inside and outside your refrigerator. Avoid using anti-bacterial cleaning products
on either the interior or exterior of the cabinet as they may cause rusting of metal components and cracking of plastic
components.
