Clean Before Using

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside 

of your refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in 

Care and Cleaning

.

Important information to know about glass shelves and 

covers:

Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when 

they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to 

sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. 

Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, 

pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers 

are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid 

dropping.

you must remove the top grille assembly to access the power 

switch. Turn the power to the refrigerator off when cleaning your 

refrigerator or changing light bulbs.

Remove the Packaging

Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on 

 

„

the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over 

the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable 

 

„

fluids or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These 

products can damage the surface of your refrigerator. For 

more information, see
