1. Prepare a three-compartment sink
for washing, rinsing, and sanitizing parts
removed from the freezer, per applicable
health codes. Also, prepare a clean surface
to air-dry all parts.
Do not use unapproved sanitizer or

wash, rinse, and sanitize. Make sure the
sanitizer is mixed thoroughly and has
completely dissolved.

freezer thoroughly with a warm, mild dish
detergent solution. Clean the following
parts with the appropriate supplied
brush:
