CLEANING

WARNING

Before all cleaning operations the unit should be SWITCHED OFF.
THE USE OF CLEANING PRODUCTS AT A TEMPERATURE OF OVER 60°C IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.
Using a high pressure jet or lance is also prohibited on external and technical parts of the equipment.
The interior cavity may be jet washed.
The warranty will not cover problems that result from failure to heed the above warnings.

LINER CAVITY
All traces of dirt should be eliminated on a daily basis.
Particularly clean glazing and cover kit with a wet wipe in order to remove particles that may be inserted in folds and corners.
Being just put the kit cover can be removed for easy cleaning.

STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
Wash these surfaces with soap and water or a neutral nonabrasive detergent. RINSE THOROUGHLY and dry
Do not use abrasive products, plastic or steel wool pads: these will scratch the surface. Never rub stainless steel with steel wool but only Scotch Brite pad or similar product when this is absolutely necessary and only in the same direction as the grain of the polish.

REGULAR CLEANING
In order to maintain refrigeration performance and ensure the longevity of the compressor, cleaning is required to clear dust from the condenser every 3 to 6 months. This should only be undertaken by the installation engineer.

MAINTENANCE

FOREWORD RELATING TO STAINLESS STEELS
Stainless steel is a type of steel designed to allow a thin protective layer to form on the metal surface to protect it against corrosion (Oxide film resulting from the chemical reaction of oxygen on the metal surface).
Any element disturbing the formation of this film or making its partial destruction easier (Food deposits, spills, stagnant liquids…) all degrade the resistance to corrosion.
Just because the composition of stainless steel allows it to resist some chemical aggression better than ordinary steel, do not imagine that stainless steel is indestructible.

3 main factors of corrosion to watch for:

The chemical In general :
- Diverse brines (Concentrations of salt, sauerkrauts…)
- Chlorides, particularly in:
- Cleaning products
- Bleach.
Temperature:
Any chemical environment becomes considerably more aggressive towards stainless steel at higher temperatures.
Time:
The longer the contact time the more perceptible the consequences of the corrosion will be.

The combination of these three factors can lead to the destruction of interior surfaces even those of high quality stainless steel.
It should be noted that when stainless steel corrodes it is extremely rare that the corrosion comes from the steel itself. Generally inappropriate or badly used cleaning products, poor maintenance or extreme conditions of use are found to be the cause of the problems encountered.

WARNING
The manufacturer can not be held responsible for cases of corrosion encountered in such conditions and no warranty will then apply.

A list of the most common causes follows, to help you identify them and maintain your equipment service life for as long as possible.

THE COMMONEST CASES OF CORROSION
Floor cleaning
Cleaning floor tiles (after building work or during normal service) is often carried out with very aggressive products. If such products are sprayed under pressure without caution, the splashes beneath appliances cause corrosion of bases and panels.
Even worse the vapours from these products fall onto the equipment and extend the corrosion to all surfaces unless the area is immediately and forcefully ventilated.

Inappropriate cleaning products (Bleach, acids, soda)
If such products or any others that are not specifically designed for use on stainless steel are used an irreversible attack occurs on the stainless steel surface.

Cleaning products applied at too high a temperature
All cleaning products become more aggressive if applied hot or to a hot surface. As a general rule the temperature should not exceed 60 °C, so as not to attack the stainless steel and provoke irreversible blackening of the surface…

Cleaning products not rinsed off properly
If interior surfaces once cleaned are not thoroughly rinsed in order to eliminate any trace of cleaning product this residue will in time continue its action and provoke corrosion.
Even worse if such surfaces are heated to over 60°C with such products still on them the problems mentioned already will inevitably occur.

Stagnation of cleaning products
In the same way any area that can retain cleaning chemicals notably gulleys, drains …must be rinsed thoroughly and abundantly. (Use a nylon brush and fresh water to strengthen the rinsing action).

Salt concentration
Salt found in every kitchen is often the cause of pitting in stainless steel Any spillage should be cleaned off immediately.

Use in an intensive brined environment
Certain products such as Sauerkraut (acidity) and seafood (presence of salt), and as a general rule all brines require particular attention. Occasional use should not present problems provided everything is carefully and systematically cleaned after every operation.

High chlorination levels in water
At times certain water supplies have too high a chlorine content. In such cases it is not rare to encounter the problems mentioned above.

Cleaning aluminum or aluminum coated accessories
The presence of aluminum-coated sheet in a chlorinated solution considerably increases the level of attack on stainless steel.
Do not leave aluminum accessories such as trays in the bottom of cabinets. One night is sufficient to attack the equipment’s surface at the points of contact.
