ChefBase – Marine Edge
A marine edge on top of a ChefBase helps contain drips and spills. It also discourages items and equipment from slipping off the
top, which increases safety.
ChefBase – Heat Shield
A heat shield is fitted inside the benchtop of ChefBase cabinets which can deflect some of the cooking equipment heat away from
the refrigerated space. It is important to follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines to maintain food-safe holding
temperatures and prolong the refrigeration unit’s life.
Routine Cleaning
Ensure the cabinet is unplugged from the power supply before cleaning.
IMPORTANT: Do not use abrasive, corrosive or solvent-based cleaners, as they could damage the protective coating on the door.
Wipe the outside of the cabinet with a damp cloth, and the inside of the cabinet with standard stainless steel cleaners suitable for
food preparation areas. Take care to keep moisture away from electrical parts.
