STOCKING
Impropertemperatureandlighting willcauseseriousprod-
uct loss. Discoloration, dehydration and spoilage can be
controlled with properuseoftheequipment and handling
of product.Product temperature should always be main-
tained at a constant and proper temperature.This means
that from the time the product is received,through stor-
age,preparation and display,the temperature of the prod-
uct must be controlled to maximize life of the product.
Hussmann cases were not designed to“heat up” or“cool
down” product—but rather to maintain an item’s proper
temperature for maximum shelf life.To achieve the pro-
tection required always:
1. Minimizeprocessing time to avoiddamagingtem-
perature rise to the product.Productshouldbeat
proper temperature.
2. Keep the air in and aroundthecasearea freeof
foreign gasses and fumes or foodwillrapidlydete-
riorate.
3. Maintainthedisplaymerchandisers temperature
controls as outlined in the refrigeratorsectionof
thismanual.
4. Donotplace any productintothese refrigerators
untilallcontrols havebeenadjustedandtheyare
operatingatthe proper temperature.Allow mer-
chandisertooperatea minimumof6hoursbefore
stockingwithany product.
5. Whenstocking,neverallow the producttoextend
beyondtherecommendedloadlimit. Air dis-
charge and return air flue must be unob-
structed at all times to provide proper refrig-
eration.
6. There arevents located at the base ofthefront of
theglass,just above the frontrail.Thesevents supply
acontinuous,gentleflowof air across the frontglass
whichinhibitscondensation. Do not place any
signs or other restrictive objects on the front
of the refrigerator that will block these vents.
7. Avoidtheuseofsupplementalfloodorspotlighting.

Process the meat to enter case at 40°or below.
Product deterioration is very rapid above40°.

CASE CLEANING
Long life and satisfactory performance of any equipment
are dependent upon the caregiven to it.To insurelonglife,
proper sanitation and minimum maintenance costs, the
refrigerator should be thoroughly cleaned frequently. It is
essentialtoestablishandregulatecleaningprocedures.This
will minimize bacteria causing discoloration which leads
to degraded product appearance and significantly short-
ening product shelf life.
SHUT OFF FAN DURING CLEANING PROCESS.It can

The interior bottom may be cleaned with any domestic
soap or detergent based cleaners.
The use of hoses and sage machines to clean the inside of
thecasesisrecommended and is an excellentwaytoclean
