SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

The following safety precautions should be followed when operating any 
appliances: 

 

Always disconnect the power cord before attempting to work on or clean any 
equipment. 

Disconnect the power cord when the appliance will be idled for a long period 
of time. 

Do not

 attempt to service this unit  yourself as  removing  any covers may 

cause exposure to dangerous voltage. 

Always route the power cord so that it is not likely to be walked on or 
pinched by other appliances. 

Never 

use extension cords. 

Do not

 overload outlets with more than one appliance. This can result in fire 

or electrical shock. 

Your model is equipped with a grounded and polarized plug. Do not defeat 
the purpose of this plug by removing the ground post or using a non-
polarized adapter without properly grounding the outlet. 

Never connect any appliance to a power source while standing in  water or 
with wet hands. 

When a replacement part is required, always insist on factory authorized 
parts only. 

 
 

MAINTENANCE 
PERIODIC CLEANING PROCEDURE 

It is best to clean your refrigerator or freezer when the product load is at its lowest 
level inside your cabinet. To clean the interior or exterior cabinet surfaces, the 
following procedure should be followed: 
 

1.  Disconnect your model from its power supply and remove all food product from 

inside. 

2.  Open all doors and allow the cabinet to reach room temperature.  Remove all 

accessories (shelves, racks, pilasters, clips, etc.)  From within the model, wash 
with a baking soda and warm water solution, and rinse thoroughly with clear 
water. Dry all of the accessories completely with a soft clean cloth. 

3.  Once the cabinet has reached room temperature, wash the entire cabinet 

inside and out with a baking soda and warm water solution. For slightly more 
difficult cleanups, ammonia or vinegar in warm water can be used. Rinse 
thoroughly with clear water and dry with a soft clean cloth. Failure to dry all 
surfaces completely may cause water stains or streaking on the aluminum or 
stainless steel finish. 

4.  Return all accessories to their respective positions and return electric supply 

power to the model.
