STAINLESS STEEL CARE
Cleaning
Stainless steel contains 70-80% iron, which will
rust if not properly maintained. It also contains 12-
30% chromium, which forms an invisible passive,
protective lm that shields against corrosion. If the
lm remains intact, the stainless steel will remain
intact. However, if the lm is damaged, the stainless
steel can break down and rust. To prevent stainless
steel breakdown, follow these steps:
Never use any metal tools. Scrapers,
les, wire brushes or scouring pads (except for
stainless steel scouring pads) will mar the surface.
Never use steel wool, which will
leave behind particles that rust.
Never use acid-based or
chloride-containing cleaning solutions, which
will break down the protective film.
Never rub in a circular motion.
Never leave any food products
or salt on the surface. Many foods are acidic.
Salt contains chloride.
For routine cleaning, use warm water, mild soap or
detergent and a sponge or soft cloth.
For heavy-duty cleaning, use warm water, a degreaser
and a plastic, stainless steel or Scotch-Brite pad.
Always rinse thoroughly.
Always rub gently in the direction of the steel grain.
Preserving & Restoring
Special stainless steel polishing cleaners can
preserve and restore the protective lm.
Preserve the life of stainless steel with a regular
application of a high quality stainless steel
polishing cleaner as a nal step to daily cleaning.
If signs of breakdown appear, restore the stainless
steel surface. First, thoroughly clean, rinse and
dry the surface. Then, on a daily basis, apply a
high-quality stainless steel polish according to
manufacturer’s instructions.
Heat Tint
Darkened areas, called heat tint, may appear on
stainless steel exposed to excessive heat, which
causes the protective lm to thicken. It is unsightly
but is not a sign of permanent damage.
To remove heat tint, follow the routine cleaning
procedure. Stubborn heat tint will require heavy-
duty cleaning.
To reduce heat tint, limit the exposure of equipment
to excessive heat.
DAILY CLEANING
The Vivreau V3-204 and V3-205 Dispensing
Systems should be cleaned once a day.
Vivreau recommends using disinfectant spray or a
sanitizing wipe for cleaning.
If the Dispensing Head becomes soiled with coffee,
tea, milk, etc., clean with hot soapy water using a
non-abrasive cloth.
Clean the Drip Tray Cover and inside the Drip Tray
using either disinfectant spray (non-chlorine) or
hot, soapy water and non-abrasive cloth.
Keep area around the unit clean and sanitized.
Viverau V3-204 and V3-205 Dispensing Systems
equipment in the under-counter area should be
kept free of dust; the ventilation should not be
obstructed restricting free air ow around the
equipment.
The VivreauV3-204 and V3-205 Dispensing Systems
Nozzles should be removed daily and cleaned with
hot soapy water and a non-abrasive cloth.
After completing all cleaning tasks, dispense water
for at least 10 seconds to ush through the Nozzle.
DO NOT use any abrasive material on your Vivreau
V3-204 or V3-205 Dispensing System.
