5.2.1 Cleaning the <strong>Glacier</strong><br />
Exterior<br />
The <strong>Glacier</strong> controller, refrigerator exterior, and refrigerated<br />
compartment may be cleaned with warm soapy water and a rag.<br />
Never use acids or solvents to clean the <strong>Glacier</strong>. If there is<br />
excessive dirt and debris, the <strong>Glacier</strong> may be hosed off with<br />
water. Do not use a pressure washer; this may force water past<br />
the protective seals. Water that has collected in the refrigerated<br />
compartment can be removed by mopping it up with towels, or by<br />
briefly tipping the <strong>Glacier</strong> over.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Positions other than the <strong>Glacier</strong>’s normal upright position will<br />
drain the lubricant away from the refrigerator compressor.<br />
Operation without adequate lubrication may permanently damage<br />
the refrigeration system. If the <strong>Glacier</strong> is turned over for<br />
more than a few seconds, the <strong>Glacier</strong>’s refrigeration system<br />
must not be operated for at least one hour after returning the<br />
<strong>Glacier</strong> to its upright position.<br />
