Maintenance; Cleaning The Cabinet; Cleaning The Condenser - VWR 20EREEVWA Installation & Operation Manual

Maintenance

CAUTION: When servicing the unit, disconnect
from the electrical power source.
CAUTION: Do not use any type of abrasive such
as steel wool or fluids, such as gasoline,
Naphtha or paint thinner, that could be harmful
to plastic materials, door gasket and/or painted
surfaces for cleaning.

Cleaning the Cabinet

The cabinet interior should be cleaned frequently. Any spilled
liquid should be wiped off immediately since stains resulting
from some spills could be permanent if not quickly removed.
The most convenient time to clean the interior is after
defrosting.
The exterior of the cabinet should be cleaned occasionally. 
A mild detergent and lukewarm water or solution of
bicarbonate of soda (1 tablespoon per gallon of water) is
recommended for cleaning the interior and exterior of the
cabinet. All surfaces should be rinsed and thoroughly dried.

Cleaning the Condenser

The condenser coil is located behind the sides and top
exterior panel. These surfaces may be warm to the touch. 
The condenser should be cleaned before becoming clogged
with dirt/dust. Construction or other dirt causing
environments may significantly increase the required
frequency. The condenser should be cleaned at least once a
year.
CAUTION: Never clean around the condensers
with your fingers. Some surfaces are sharp.
