Care and Maintenance
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within an hour or two, and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However,
you should minimize the number times you open the door while the power is off. During power failures of longer dura-
tion, take steps to protect your food.
IF YOU MOVE
Remove, or securely fasten down, all loose items inside the refrigerator. To avoid damaging the leveling legs, turn
them all the way into the base.
SOME IMPORTANT RULES FOR THE CORRECT USE OF THE REFRIGERATOR
Never place hot foods in the refrigerator
Beverages should be stored in sealed containers
Foods to be stored for a long time should be wrapped in cellophane or polyethylene, or kept in glass containers.
Never place spoiled food in the refrigerator.
Don’t overload the refrigerator.
Don’t open the door unless necessary.
Should the refrigerator be stored without use for long periods, it is suggested, after careful cleaning, to leave the
door ajar to allow the air to circulate inside the unit in order to avoid the possible formations of condensation, mold,
or odors.
FOOD STORAGE SUGGESTIONS
Fresh Food Compartment
Never cover food compartment shelves with aluminum foil or any other shelf covering material which may prevent air
circulation.
Always remove porous store wrapping paper from meats, poultry, and fish. Meats should be wrapped individually
and placed in a dish for storage.Wrap fish and poultry in foil or heavy waxed paper. Most fish should be used the
same day of purchase. Packaged meats such as ham, bacon, dried beef, or frankfurter, store best in their original
packages.
Allow warm foods to cool to room temperature before placing them in the refrigerator.
Always cover open dishes of food, especially leftovers. Use leftovers within 2 or 3 days.
VEGETABLE CRISPER
The tray at the bottom of the refrigerator is covered to retain moisture. The crisper compartment will enable you to
store vegetables and fruits which would otherwise dry out rapidly.
COOLING SYSTEM
This refrigerator is inclusive of a “Frost Free” type cooling system, which means you never have to defrost the freezer
compartment. The defrost water is routed into a defrost pan located near the compressor, where it then evaporates.
CLEANING
Before cleaning the refrigerator or freezer, always disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply. To clean the
inside, use a soft cloth and a solution of a tablespoon baking soda to one quart (4 cups) of water, or a mild soap suds
solution or mild detergent. Wash ice cube tray, drip tray, and glide out shelves in a mild detergent solution, then wipe
dry with a soft cloth. Clean the outside with a damp soft cloth and some mild detergent or appliance cleaner.
VACATION TIME
For short vacation periods, leave the control knob at the usual setting. During longer absences:
a) remove all food,
b) disconnect from electrical outlet,
c) leave the door open to avoid possible formations of condensation, mold, or odors.
LED LIGHTING REPALCEMENT
Do not change the LED light by yourself, please contact an authorized service personnel.
