Cleaning
WARNING
• Use non-flammable cleaner. Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
CAUTION
• Do not use an abrasive cloth or sponge when
cleaning the interior and exterior of the
refrigerator.
• Do not place your hand on the bottom surface of
the refrigerator when opening and closing the
doors.
General Cleaning Tips
• Both the refrigerator and freezer sections
defrost automatically; however, clean both
sections once a month to prevent odors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
• Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power
before cleaning.
• Remove all removable parts, such as shelves.
• Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild
detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or
harsh cleaners.
• Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces
thoroughly.
Exterior
For products with black stainless steel exterior,
spray glass cleaner on a clean microfiber cloth and
rub in direction of grain. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly at the display panel. Do not use
harsh or abrasive cleaners.
For products with a standard stainless steel
exterior, use a damp microfiber cloth and rub in
the direction of the grain. Dry with a paper towel
to avoid streaks. For stubborn stains and
fingerprints, use a few drops of liquid dish soap in
water, and rinse with hot water before drying. Do
not use abrasive or harsh cleaners.
Inside Walls
• Allow freezer to warm up so the cloth will not
stick.
To help remove odors, wash the inside of the
refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and
warm water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1
quart of water (26 g soda to 1 liter water.) Be sure
the baking soda is completely dissolved so it does
not scratch the surfaces of the refrigerator.
Door Liners and Gaskets
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild
detergent in warm water. Do not use cleaning
waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or
cleaners containing petroleum on plastic
refrigerator parts.
Plastic Parts (Covers and Panels)
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild
detergent in warm water. Do not use glass
cleaners, abrasive cleansers, or flammable fluids.
These can scratch or damage the material.
Condenser Coils
Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush or crevice
attachment to clean the condenser cover and
vents. Do not remove the panel covering the
condenser coil area.
