III.f - CLEARANCE:

In order to assure optimum performance, your Traulsen unit MUST have an adequate supply of air to function properly. Therefore, the operating location must either have a minimum of 12” clearance over- head of the unit or allow for unrestricted air flow at the back of the unit. Clearance of at least 12” above is required in order to perform certain maintenance tasks.

IV. CARE & MAINTENANCE

WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING ANY PARTS OF THE UNIT.

IV. a - CLEANING THE EXTERIOR:

Exterior stainless steel should be cleaned with warm water, mild soap and a soft cloth. Apply with a damp- ened cloth and wipe in the direction of the metal grain.

Avoid the use of strong detergents and gritty, abra- sive cleaners as they may tend to mar and scratch the surface. Do NOT use cleansers containing chlo- rine, this may promote corrosion of the stainless steel.

Care should also be taken to avoid splashing the unit with water, containing chlorinated cleansers, when mopping the floor around the unit.

For stubborn odor spills, use baking soda and water (mixed to a 1 TBSP baking soda to 1 pint water ratio).

IV. b - CLEANING THE INTERIOR:

For cleaning both stainless steel and anodized alumi- num interiors, the use of baking soda as described in section “IV. d” is recommended. Use on breaker strips as well as door gaskets. All interior fittings are re- movable without tools to facilitate cleaning.

IV. c - HINGE REPLACEMENT:

Both the door and hinge can be easily removed from the cabinet. To remove the door, remove the plug at the bottom of the top hinge. Inside the hinge there is a small screw which secures the door in place. Re- move this with a flat head screwdriver and the door can then be lifted off the hinge. To remove the door portion of the hinge from the door, lift off the hinge cover and then remove the three Phillips head screws which secure the hinge in place on the door. To re- move the cabinet portion of the hinge, remove the three Phillips head screws which hold it in place. On solid door units, the top hinge(s) contains a microswitch for controlling the interior lighting.

To reassemble the hinge reverse the previous proce- dure.

IV. d - REPLACING THE GASKETS:

To remove the gasket to be replaced, grasp it firmly by one corner and pull it out. Before attempting to install a new gasket, both the unit and the gasket it- self must be at room temperature. Insert the four cor- ners first by using a rubber mallet (or hammer with a block of wood). After the corners are properly inserted, work your way towards the center from both ends by gently hitting with a mallet until the gasket is com- pletely seated in place (see figure 2 for proper gasket placement).
