USE WARM WATER AND FOLLOW THE
MANUFACTURER’S SPECIFICATIONS (example:

Too S TRONG of a solution can cause parts damage,
while too MILD of a solution will not provide adequate
cleaning. Make sure all brushes provided with the
freezer are a vailable for brush cleaning.
Step 2
Return to the freezer with a small amount of cleaning
solution. With a single service towel, wipe clean the
