the condenser coils. The condenser coil may require a spray with the de-greasing agent
and then blown through with compressed air.
Be sure all electrical and mechanical parts are dry before turning on the power. Never
use a high pressure water wash for this cleaning procedure as water can damage the
electrical components located near or at the condenser coil. Do not place filter material
in front of condenser coil. This material blocks air-flow to the coil similar to having a dirty
coil!
If you keep the Condenser clean you will minimize your service expense and lower your
electrical costs. Failure to maintain a clean condenser coil can initially cause high
temperatures and excessive run times. Continuous operation with dirty or clogged
condenser coils can result in compressor failures.
To put back the condensing unit in its place, slide in the unit carefully. BE SURE DRAIN
PIPE IS LOCATED OVER THE PAN. Replace front bottom panel plug the appliance
into the electrical outlet and turn the power switch on.
3.2.2 Cleaning the Gasket
Gaskets require regular cleaning to prevent mold and mildew build up and also to keep
the elasticity of the gasket. Gasket cleaning can be done with the use of warm soapy
water. Avoid full strength cleaning products on gaskets as this can cause them to
become brittle and prevent proper seals. Also, never use sharp tools or knives to scrape
or clean the gasket which could possibly tear the gasket and rip the bellows.
Gaskets can easily be replaced and do not require the use of tools or authorized service
persons.
The gaskets can be pulled out of the groove in the door and new gaskets can be
“pressed” back into place.
3.2.2 Draining the Unit
Each unit has a drain located inside the unit which removes the condensation from the
evaporator coil and evaporates it at an external condensate evaporator pan. The drain
can become loose or disconnected from moving or bumping the drain.
IF YOU NOTICE EXCESSIVE WATER ACCUMULATION ON THE INSIDE OF THE
UNIT be sure the drain tube is connected from the evaporator housing to the
condensate evaporator drain pan.
IF WATER IS COLLECTING UNDERNEATH THE UNIT you may want to check the condensate
evaporator drain tube to be sure it is still located inside the drain pan. The leveling of the
unit is important as the units are designed to drain properly when on a level surface, if
your floor is not level this can also cause drain problems. Be sure all drain lines are free
of obstructions; typically food product is found blocking drain lines causing water to back
up and overflow the drain pans.
