MAINTENANCE

SEASONAL MAINTENANCE FOR OUTDOOR MODELS
Winterizing
This process should occur when the daily low temperatures is at or below the temperatures stated below:
Refrigerator models: 3° C
Beverage Center: 6° C
Wine Reserve: 7° C
It is best to winterize your unit before the low temperatures listed above.

1. Turn the unit to OFF position by pressing the OFF button on the controller. The controller displays the word “OFF” and, for Signature Series models, turn the master switch located behind the grille off (if the power cord is accessible, unplug the power cord. If not, turn off the circuit breaker to the electrical receptacle the cabinet is plugged into).
2. Remove all contents from the unit.
3. Remove the front grille.
4. Clean the condenser by using a vacuum cleaner to remove loose debris (leaves, dirt, etc.) that may have accumulated inside the grille.
5. Reinstall the front grille.
6. Clean the interior of the unit using stainless steel cleaner and polish (see page 7).
7. Clean the exterior of the unit using stainless steel cleaner and polish (see page 7).

NOTE: Do not place a cover over the unit. While not required, you may choose to remove the unit from the outdoor location and store it indoors.
CAUTION
Operating the unit at temperatures lower than those recommended will void the warranty.

Spring Start-Up
This process should occur after the daily low temperatures is above the temperatures stated below:
Refrigerator models: 3° C
Beverage Center: 6° C
Wine Reserve: 7° C

1. Remove the grille.
2. Check the condensing unit to ensure it is clear of loose debris and clean as necessary with a vacuum cleaner.
3. Re-attach the front grille to the unit.
4. Clean the interior of the unit using stainless steel cleaner and polish (see page 7).
5. Clean the exterior of the unit using stainless steel cleaner and polish (see page 7).
6. Plug the unit into the electrical receptacle or turn on the circuit breaker.
7. Turn on the master switch located behind the grille if the model is Signature Series. Press the OFF button one time to turn the unit on. The controller display will show the actual temperature inside the cabinet.
8. The cooling process will begin to bring the unit to the set temperature. It’s recommended you run the unit for 24 hours to stabilize the operating temperature before using.

DANGER
Never attempt to repair or perform maintenance on the unit until the main electrical power to the unit has been disconnected!

STAINLESS STEEL CARE & CLEANING

General
Stainless steel is a “passive” metal because it contains other metals like chromium, nickel, and manganese that stabilize the atoms. Chromium provides an invisible passive film that covers the steel surface, acting as a shield against corrosion. As long as the film is intact and not contaminated, the metal is passive and stainless. If the passive film of stainless steel has been broken, the equipment can start to corrode and rust.
Three materials or processes can break down stainless steel’s passive layer and allows corrosion to occur:

• Mechanical abrasion
• Deposits and water
• Chlorides

Mechanical abrasion refers to items that will scratch a steel surface. Steel pads, wire brushes, and scrapers are prime examples.
Water comes out of the faucet in varying degrees of hardness. Hard water may leave spots. When allowed to sit, these deposits will break down the passive chromium layer and rust stainless steel. Other deposits from food preparation must be promptly removed with an appropriate cleaning agent.
Chlorides are found nearly everywhere. They are in the water, food, and table salt. Household and industrial cleaners are the worst offenders.
Preventing Stainless Steel Rust
Use non-abrasive tools to clean stainless steel products. Soft cloths and plastic scouring pads will not harm the steel’s passive layer.
Clean with polish lines. Some stainless steels have visible polishing lines or “grain”. When visible lines are present, always scrub in a motion parallel to the lines. When the grain cannot be seen, polish in a consistent straight pattern and not in a circular motion. Use alkaline, alkaline chlorinated or non-chloride-containing cleaners. While many traditional cleaners are loaded with chlorides, the industry is providing an ever-increasing choice of non- chloride cleaners. If you are not sure of the chloride content in the cleaner being used,
contact your cleaner supplier. If your present cleaner contains chlorides, ask your supplier for an alternative. Avoid cleaners containing quaternary salt; it also can attack stainless steel and cause pitting and rusting.
Keep food equipment clean. Use alkaline, alkaline chlorinated, or non-chloride cleaners at recommended strength. Clean frequently to avoid the build-up of hard, stubborn stains. The single most likely cause of damage is chlorides in the water. Remember, adding heat to cleaners that contain chlorides dramatically increases their effect on stainless steel.
If chlorinated cleaners are used, immediately rinse and wipe equipment and supplies dry. The sooner you wipe standing water, especially when it contains cleaning agents, the better. After wiping the equipment down, allow it to air dry. Oxygen helps maintain the stainless steel passive film.

Cleaning the Cabinet Interior/Exterior
CAUTION
NEVER use hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) on stainless steel. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cloths on any interior or exterior surfaces or removeable parts.

Glass panels may be cleaned using any standard glass cleaner available on the market.
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 the lights, controllers, fan motors, and unfinished wood wine rack faces.
Cleaning the Condenser
The condenser (located behind the front grille cover) should be cleaned every three (3) months. Use a soft bristle brush and vacuum to remove dust and lint.

CAUTION
Avoid damaging or crushing the condenser fins or tubing.
