General Cleaning Tips
y
Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
y
Remove all removable parts, such as
shelves, crispers, etc.
y
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water. Do not use
abrasive or harsh cleaners.
y
Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces
thoroughly.
Exterior
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 products with a stainless steel 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.
Inside Walls (allow freezer to warm up
so the cloth will not stick)
To help remove odors, you can 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 window
sprays, abrasive cleansers, or flammable fluids.
These can scratch or damage the
material.
Condenser Coils
Use a vacuum cleaner with an attachment to
clean the condenser cover and vents. Do not
remove the panel covering the condenser coil
area.
CAUTION
y
Do not use a rough cloth or sponge
when cleaning the interior and exterior
of the refrigerator.
y
Do not place your hand on the bottom
surface of the refrigerator when opening
and closing.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
y
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically; however, clean both sections
about once a month to prevent odors.
y
Wipe up spills immediately.
y
Always unplug the refrigeration before cleaning.
WARNING
Use non-flammable cleaner. Failure to do
so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
