Clean the outside of the cabinet with a clean cloth dampened with dishwashing detergent, removing oil, dust, or cooking residue.

DANGER

Never attempt to clean rethermalizer during the rethermalizing process or when the cookpot is filled with hot water and/or food products.

CAUTION

Do not use deliming solution to clean these units. Use of deliming solution will damage all stainless steel parts.

Clean Water-Level Sensors, Temperature Probe, and Cookpot

NOTE: Do not use deliming solution to clean these units. Use of deliming solution will damage all stainless steel parts.

Press the controller power switch to the OFF position.

FBRA18 Units: Remove the cap nut at the top of the shield (located on the left front of the cook- pot) and remove the shield by lifting up until it can be removed from the stud that holds it at the bottom.
