Notes for Cleaning
•
When removing a shelf or drawer from inside
the appliance, remove all stored foods from
the shelf or drawer to prevent injury or
damage to the appliance.
−
Otherwise, injury may occur due to the
weight of stored foods.
•
If cleaning the outside air vents of the
appliance by means of vacuuming, then the
power cord should be unplugged from the
outlet to avoid any static discharge that can
damage the electronics or cause an electric
shock.
•
Detach the shelves and drawers and clean
them with water, and then dry them
sufficiently, before replacing them.
•
Regularly wipe the door gaskets with a wet
soft towel.
•
Door basket spills and stains should be
cleaned as they can compromise storage
ability of the basket and could even be
damaged.
•
After cleaning, check if the power cable is
damaged, warm or improperly plugged.
•
Keep the air vents on the exterior of the
appliance clean.
−
Blocked air vents can cause fire or appliance
damage.
•
Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps
provide rust protection. Do not wax plastic
parts. Wax painted metal surfaces at least
twice a year using appliance wax (or auto
paste wax). Apply wax with a clean, soft cloth.
•
For the appliance exterior, use a clean sponge
or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm
water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners.
Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
•
Never clean the shelves or containers in the
dishwasher.
−
The parts may become deformed due to the
heat.
•
If the appliance is equipped with an LED
lamp, do not remove lamp cover and LED
lamp in any attempt to repair or service it.
Please, contact an LG Electronics customer
information centre.
