V. CARE & MAINTENANCE (continued)
V. c - REPLACING THE GASKETS:
To remove the gasket to be replaced, grasp it firm-
ly by one corner and pull it out. Before attempting to in-
stall a new gasket, both the unit and the gasket itself
must be at room temperature. Insert the four corners
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 hit-
ting with a mallet until the gasket is completely seated in
place (see figure below for proper gasket placement).
NOTE: The gasket may appear too large, but if it is in-
stalled as indicated above it will slip into place.
V. d - CLEANING THE EXTERIOR:
Exterior stainless steel should be cleaned with warm water,
mild soap and a soft cloth. Apply with a dampened cloth and
wipe in the direction of the metal grain.
Avoid the use of strong detergents and gritty, abrasive
cleaners as they may tend to mar and scratch the surface.
Do NOT use cleansers containing chlorine, this may pro-
mote corrosion of the stainless steel.
Care should also be taken to avoid splashing the unit with
water, containing chlorinated cleansers, whenmopping 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).
V. e - CLEANING THE INTERIOR:
For cleaning both stainless steel and anodized aluminum
interiors, the use of baking soda as described in section "V.
d" is recommended. Use on breaker strips as well as door
gaskets. All interior fittings are removable without tools to
facilitate cleaning.
