CLEANING:
Your PMA-5/12 or PMA-5/18 should be cleaned at least daily and as soon as possible after a spill has occurred.
It is essential to maintain a clean unit, especially if the public views the unit in your place of business. The
following general guidelines should be used for cleaning:
OVEN INTERIOR - -
• The Oven Door glass may be cleaned with any good glass-cleaning formula. Be sure to wipe down
the Door Frame, and to clean behind the Door Gasket on the inside of the Oven Door. The Door can
be removed for cleaning heavy soiling by opening the Door until it is perpendicular to the face of the
unit and then lifting the Door straight up off of the Hinge pins.
• Dried-on debris or heavy soiling can be removed with hot soapy water followed by a rinse with
clean fresh water. Wipe the Door dry before
replacing it on the front of the Oven.
CAUTION: Abrasive cleaners may scratch the glass!
•
The Oven interior should be wiped out daily. Remove the Oven Element Cover once a month for
inspection and cleaning:
1) Remove the thumbscrews along the top edge and pull the Element Cover down.
2) Pull the Element Cover out through the front of the Oven to remove it.
• Inspect the Oven ceiling, the Blower Wheel, the Sidewalls and the Element Cover for mineral
deposits and soiling. Wipe these parts down with hot water and a mild soap, followed by a rinse with
clean fresh water and a mild sanitizing agent. Wiping the interior dry will help to prevent water
spotting. Water spotting and all other mineral deposits should be removed with any mild mineral
removal agent as soon as they are noticeable.
• Replace the Oven Element Cover. Make sure that the Element Cover is pushed all the way back and
up for a tight fit. Secure it in place with the thumbscrews.
• The Oven Sidewalls should be removed on an as-needed basis for interior cleaning and mineral
removal. Replace them the same way as the Element Cover, tight to the sides and all the way back.
OVEN EXTERIOR - -
• All exterior glass may be cleaned with any good glass-cleaning formula.
• The exterior metal surfaces can be cleaned with any good stainless steel cleaner or polish, or with hot
water and a mild soap followed by a thorough rinse with clean fresh water if it is very soiled.
CAUTION
: Do not allow any liquids near the Control surfaces!

DOES NOT RECOMMEND the use of any strong commercial or caustic product
on this equipment. DO NOT allow any type of caustic cleaner to come into contact with any
aluminum parts (such as Door frames or Baking Decks), the silicon rubber Door Gaskets, or
any of the sealant in the Oven seams and joints. These types of cleaning compounds may
cause discoloration and degradation of these parts resulting in permanent damage. DO NOT
use bleach or bleach compounds on any chromed parts; bleach may damage chrome plating.

has had very good results with a product called JIFFY CLEANER. For standard
cleaning simply spray JIFFY on and wipe off. Heavily soiled areas may require a short
period of soaking. This cleaner is available through NU-VU
