Cleaning
Cleaning inside the Fridge/Freezer
You should clean the Fridge/Freezer internally with a weak solution of bicarbonate of
soda. Then rinse with warm water using a damp sponge or cloth and wipe dry.
Wash the baskets in warm soapy water and ensure they are completely dry before
replacing in the Fridge/Freezer.
Cleaning outside the Fridge/Freezer
• Use standard non-abrasive detergent diluted in warm water to clean the Fridge/
Freezer exterior.
• The grille of the condenser at the back of the Fridge/Freezer and the adjacent
components can be vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean any part of the Fridge/
Freezer.
Vacation Time
• Turn off the refrigerator first and then unplug the unit from the wall outlet.
• Remove all the food.
• Clean the refrigerator.
• Leave the lid open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or
odors.
• Use extreme caution in the case of children. The unit should not be accessible to
child’s play.
• Short vacations: Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of less than three
weeks.
• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food
and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor
and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary or have
the door removed.
How to save energy
1. Install the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and away
from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-producing
appliances such as a range, oven or dishwasher.
2. The refrigerator door should remain open only as long as necessary; do not place hot
food inside the refrigerator.
3. Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings .Remove as many items as needed
at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
4. The refrigerator door should be properly closed to avoid increased energy
consumption, and the formation of excess ice and / or condensation inside.
5. Constantly circulating cold air keeps the temperature homogenous inside the
refrigerator. For this reason, it is important to properly distribute the food, to facilitate
the flow of air.
6. Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts
down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
7. Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold airvents. Doing so causes the
refrigerator to run longer and use more energy. Shelves should not be lined with
aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation,
making the refrigerator less efficient, which could cause food spoilage.
8. During prolonged absences (example: vacations), it is advisable to disconnect the
refrigerator, remove all the food, and clean it . The door should be left slightly open
to avoid mold and unpleasant odors. This will not affect the refrigerator when it is
reconnected.
9. During short absences (example: holidays), the refrigerator can remain on. However,
remember that prolonged power outages may occur while you are gone.
