Cleaning care – exterior/interior
Exterior
Stainless exterior door
■ ■
It is important when cleaning the exterior door surface of your refrigerator, to only use liquid
dishwashing detergent dissolved in warm water.
■ ■
Dry the door with a clean, lint free cloth.
■ ■
The use of any abrasive or stainless steel cleaners and solvents will damage the door surface.
Other exterior surfaces
■ ■
Clean all other exterior surfaces with warm water and detergent.
■ ■
If necessary, clean the magnetic door gasket with an old toothbrush, warm water and detergent.
Water Evaporator Tray
■ ■
The water evaporator tray is found above the compressor at the back of the refrigerator or
freezer. The tray may require infrequent cleaning.
■ ■
Carefully move the refrigerator or freezer out from the wall.
■ ■
Switch off the appliance.
■ ■
We do not recommend that you remove the evaporator tray. If cleaning is required, excess water
can be soaked up from the evaporator tray using a sponge. Wipe out with warm water and
detergent or disinfectant.
■ ■
Switch on the appliance.
Interior
■ ■
It is important to keep the interior of the refrigerator and freezer clean to help prevent food from
becoming contaminated during storage.
■ ■
The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be carried out
(ideally once every 1 to 2 weeks) in the refrigerator.
■ ■
Remove the shelves from cabinet and door. Wash shelves and storage bins in warm water and
detergent; rinse in clean water and dry before replacing.
■ ■
Wipe over the interior surfaces with warm water and detergent or baking soda dissolved in warm
water (add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to each 1 pint (500 ml) of water). Rinse with clean water.
■ ■
To help remove “old stale refrigerator” smells add a few drops of vanilla essence or vinegar to the
water before cleaning.
■ ■
Clean exterior surfaces with warm water and detergent. Use a toothbrush for the magnetic
door gasket.
■ ■
Do not use harsh, abrasive cloths or cleaners or highly perfumed, strong smelling cleaners or
solvents on any part of the refrigerator or freezer.
