and lift the drawer out at an angle. You can also remove the drawer slider by releasing the side catches as shown. Reverse the
operation to refit the drawers to the cabinet after cleaning.

feet which sit on the cabinet floor. The shelf clips may be positioned at different heights to suit
various product.

Before final positioning of the cabinet, pull the power cord out and connect it to the power supply.
When connecting an upright cabinet, ensure the power cord is routed through the opening on the
wire grille at the back of the cabinet.

Marine Edge
A marine edge on top of the ChefBase cabinets helps contain drips and spills. It also discourages items and equipment from
slipping off the table, which increases safety.
Heat Shield
A heat shield is fitted inside the bench top of the ChefBase cabinets, which can deflect some of the heat from the cooking
equipment away from the refrigerated space. It is important to follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines to maintain
food-safe holding temperatures and prolong the 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
exterior of 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.
The condenser coil must be kept clean. SKOPE strongly recommends monthly cleaning of the condenser coil and air filter. Do not
use hard or sharp tools to clean the coil as these may cause damage.
Note: Combination cabinets (cabinets with a fridge and freezer) have two filters and coils.
