EXTERIOR CLEANING

n
When cleaning the unit, care should be taken to avoid
the front power switch and the rear power cord. Keep
water and/or cleaning solutions away from these parts.
n
Never use a high-pressure water jet for cleaning or
hose down or flood the units with water. Do not use
power cleaning equipment, steel wool, scrapers or wire
brushes on stainless steel or painted surfaces.
,
Never use an acid based cleaning solution, including a
delimer! Acid will deteriorate the finish and damage the
heating element. Food products can also be acidic, keep
equipment clean of ALL food products.
Clean the area around the unit as often as necessary to
maintain cleanliness and efficient operation.
Gaskets require daily cleaning to prevent mold and
mildew build up and also to retain the elasticity of the
gasket. Gasket cleaning can be done with the use of warm
soapy water (no citrus based cleaners). Avoid full strength
cleaning products on gaskets as this can cause them to
become brittle and crack. Never use sharp tools or knives to
scrape or clean the gasket.
Wipe surfaces with a damp cloth rinsed in water to remove
dust and dirt from the unit. Always rub with the "grain" of
the stainless steel to avoid marring the finish. If a greasy
residue persists, use a damp cloth rinsed in a mild dish soap
and water solution. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
Never use steel wool or abrasive pads for cleaning. Never
use chlorinated, citrus based or abrasive cleaners.
Stainless steel has a clear coating that is stain resistant and
easy to clean. Products containing abrasives will damage
the coating and scratch the panels. Daily cleaning may be
followed by an application of stainless steel cleaner which
will eliminate water spotting and fingerprints. Early signs of
stainless steel breakdown are small pits and cracks. If this
has begun, clean thoroughly and start to apply stainless
steel cleaners in attempt to restore the steel.
N8600P Immersion Heater
Follow the same as instructions as the rest of the food well:
Wipe surfaces with a damp cloth rinsed in water to remove
dust and dirt from the unit. If a greasy residue persists, use
a damp cloth rinsed in a mild dish soap and water solution.
Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth. Never use steel wool or
abrasive pads for cleaning. Never use chlorinated, citrus
based or abrasive cleaners.

Caution
Defrosting
Refrigerated cold pans MUST be defrosted daily. Never
use sharp objects or tools to clean or scrape ice/frost build
up from the refrigerated cold pans. A puncture to the pan
could cause irreparable damage to the refrigeration system.
Units with a Eutectic Fluid Cold Pan require the same
precautions. The fluid is NOT refillable and loss of fluid due
to a puncture would cause irreparable damage.

CLEANING THE CONDENSER COIL

In order to maintain proper refrigeration performance, the
condenser fins must be cleaned of dust, dirt and grease
regularly. It is recommended that this be done monthly. If
conditions are such that the condenser is totally blocked
in a month, the frequency of cleaning should be increased.
Clean the condenser with a vacuum cleaner or stiff brush. If
extremely dirty, a commercially available condenser cleaner
may be required.
Failure to maintain a clean condenser coil can initially cause
high temperatures and excessive run times. Continuous
operation with a dirty or clogged condenser coil can
result in compressor failure. Neglecting the condenser coil
cleaning procedures will void any warranties associated
with the compressor and cost to replace the compressor.
N8100-FAP SERIES DRAIN MAINTENANCE
Each N8100-FA unit has a drain located inside the unit that
removes the condensation from the evaporator coil and
routes it to an external condensate evaporator pan. Each
drain can become loose or disconnected during normal use.
If you notice water accumulation under the unit, be sure the
drain tube is connected to the evaporator drain pan and the
end of the drain tube is in the condensate evaporator. The
leveling of the unit is important as the units are designed to
drain properly when level. Be sure all drain lines are free of
obstructions.
