Exterior Cleaning
(As Required)
Black Models:
• Clean glass drawer fronts with glass cleaner. The drawers, grille and cabinet 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 Steel Models:
• Stainless steel models can discolor when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt water or cleaners with bleach.
• Clean glass drawer fronts with a non-chlorine glass cleaner. Keep your stainless steel surfaces 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. (The part number is 173348.) Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning on a weekly basis.
• Do not clean with steel wool pads.
• Do not use stainless steel cleaners/polishes on the glass surfaces.
• Do not use cleaners that are not specifically intended for stainless steel on stainless steel surfaces (this includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).
• If any surface discolors or rusting 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.
• Use of abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite will cause the graining in the stainless to become blurred.
• 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.
3 Prepare Site
Your U-Line product has been designed for built-in installation. Your unit does not require additional air space for top, sides or rear. However, the front grille must NOT be obstructed and clearance is required for electrical connection in the rear.
Note: Unit can NOT be installed behind a closed cabinet door.
