Exterior Cleaning

Black and White Models:

• Black and White surfaces may be cleaned with a mild detergent

and warm water solution. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.

Stainless Models:

• Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor when

exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt water or cleaners with bleach.

• Keep your Stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good

quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish on a monthly basis. For best results use Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line Corporation (Part numbers 173348).

• Do not clean with steel wool or abrasive pads.

• Do not use cleaners that are not specifically intended

for stainless steel on stainless surfaces (this includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).

• If any surface discolors or rust appears, clean it quickly with

Bon-Ami or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser and a non-abrasive cloth. Always clean in the direction of the grain. Always finish this process with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable product to prevent further problems.

Rust that is allowed to linger can penetrate into the surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of the rust may not be possible.

Electrical Specifications

SHOCK HAZARD — Electrical Grounding Required.

• Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug and never use a two-prong grounding adapter.

• Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.

Electrical installation must observe all state and local codes. This unit requires connection to a grounded (threeprong), polarized receptacle that has been placed by a qualified electrician.

The unit requires a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60 Hz, 15A power supply (normal household current). An individual, properly grounded branch circuit or circuit breaker is recommended. GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) is usually not required for fixed location appliances and is not recommended for your unit because a GFCI could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be sure to consult your local codes.
