Cleaning

Cleaning

To clean stainless steel exterior or interior surfaces, use a soft, non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner to wipe down these surfaces. Glass door panels can be cleaned using any standard glass cleaner available on the market today.

To clean interior and exterior non-metallic surfaces and removable parts, wash with a mild solution of soap and lukewarm water with a little baking soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid getting water on lights, controllers, fan motors, and unfinished wood wine rack faces.

CAUTION

DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or cloths on any of the interior or exterior surfaces or removable parts.

Condenser Cleaning

WARNING

For cleaning the condenser and other routine maintenance, shut off electricity to the unit.

In all instances, you should clean the condenser area every three months. The condenser is located behind the kickplate. To clean the condenser remove the kickplate and use a soft bristle brush and vacuum to remove dust and lint. Avoid damaging or crushing the condenser fins or tubing. Upon completion, re-install the kickplate.

CAUTION

Failure to clean the condenser could result in temperature loss or mechanical failure or damages. Clean this area every three months.
