MAINTENANCE

Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets, the unit is used outdoors, or other special considerations.

EXTERIOR CLEANING — AS REQUIRED

The door, grille and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.

Stainless Steel Models

•Stainless steel models may discolor when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt water or cleaners with bleach.

•Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a high quality, all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish on a monthly basis. For best results use Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line Corporation. (Part number 173348/$7.99 plus shipping and handling.) Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations will require cleaning on a weekly basis.

•DO NOT CLEAN WITH STEEL WOOL PADS.

•DO NOT USE CLEANERS THAT ARE NOT SPECIFICALLY INTENDED FOR STAINLESS STEEL (this includes glass, tile and counter cleansers).

•If any surface discolors or rusting appears, clean it quickly with Bon- Ami or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser and a non-abrasive cloth. Always clean in the direction of the grain. Always finish this process with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner to prevent further prob- lems.

•USE OF ABRASIVE PADS SUCH AS SCOTCHBRITE WILL CAUSE THE GRAINING IN THE STAINLESS TO BECOME BLURRED.

•Rust that is allowed to linger can penetrate into the surface of the stainless steel and become impossible to remove.
