IV. CARE & MAINTENANCE (cont’d)

IV. b - HINGE REPLACEMENT:

door units, the top hinge(s) contains a microswitch for controlling the interior lighting.

To reassemble the hinge reverse the previous proce- dure.

IV. c - 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 8 for proper gasket placement).

NOTE: The gasket may appear too large, but if it is installed as indicated above it will slip into place.

IV. d - 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 chlorine, 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. e - 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.

V. MISC. OPERATIONS

V.a - ADJUSTING THE SHELVES:

For shelves mounted on pins, first select the desired location and remove the white plastic covers in the interior back and sides by rotating them counter-clock- wise. Remove the shelf pins by rotating them counter- clockwise. Install the pins in the desired location by rotating clockwise. Make sure the pin is securely tight- ened down. Do not over tighten. Slide the shelf into its new position, and replace the white plastic covers into the holes vacated by the shelf pins.
