Care and Cleaning
To prevent odor build-up, keep your refrigerator and freezer clean. Wipe up any spills
immediately. Clean both sections of unit at least twice a year.
Never
use metallic
scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface.
Do
not
wash any removable parts in a dishwasher.
Always unplug power cord from
wall outlet before cleaning.
NOTE:
Turning control to OFF does not disconnect
power to controls, light bulb, or other electrical components.
Inside
Wash inside surfaces of refrigerator and freezer with a solution of 2 tablespoons baking
soda in 1 quart warm water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Be sure to wring excess water
out of sponge or cloth when cleaning around controls, light bulb, or any electrical parts.
Wash removable parts such as shelves and drawers with baking soda solution, or mild
detergent and warm water. DO NOT USE HARSH CLEANERS ON THESE SURFACES.
Rinse and dry thoroughly. Clean door gaskets with mild suds, rinse with clear water and
wipe dry. Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments that can scratch appliance
surface when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from tape or energy label can be
removed with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, or— touch residue with
sticky side of tape already removed. DO NOT REMOVE SERIAL PLATE.
Outside
Wash cabinet and handles with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and
wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. Do not use commercial household cleaners, ammonia,
or alcohol to clean handles.
Remove any dust or dirt from front of toe grill using a vacuum cleaner with its dusting
tool attachment. Remove toe grill by pulling it straight out. While grill is removed,
vacuum backside of grill, and wipe with a sudsy cloth or sponge. Periodically clean
condenser (black tubes and wires beneath the refrigerator, behind toe grill). Do not allow
lint or dust to accumulate on coils. Insert a long handled brush or vacuum attachment
between the two coils to bring lint forward. To replace toe grill, line up clips with holes
and push grill straight on.
Use caution when cleaning in area
of the coils. Surfaces there may be sharp.
Air vents on lower access panel at rear of refrigerator should be cleaned periodically.
Clean vents by using a vacuum cleaner with its dusting tool attachment. When moving
refrigerator, pull straight out. Do not shift refrigerator from side to side as this may tear
or gouge floor covering. Be careful not to move refrigerator beyond plumbing
connections if unit is equipped with an automatic ice maker.
Replacing Light Bulb
To replace light bulb in either compartment:
1. Unplug refrigerator.
2. Wear gloves as protection against possible broken glass.
3. Replace old bulb with an appliance bulb of the same wattage.
4. Remember to plug refrigerator back in.
Damp objects stick to cold
metal surfaces. Do not touch refrigerated
surfaces with wet or damp hands.
To avoid damage and help
the refrigerator run as efficiently as
possible, clean the condenser and air
vents periodically.
