Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning the Outside
Unplug your Beverage Center. Clean the outside with a cloth dampened in mild soapy water.
Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. To clean the door gasket, use only mild soapy water. Never
use harsh cleansers or scouring pads to clean any part of your unit.
Cleaning the Inside
Unplug your Beverage Center and remove its contents. Rinse the inside surfaces with plain
water and dry the chrome racks, basket and shelving. Avoid getting excess water inside the
machine since it will flow into the water trap near the compressor and possibly overflow.
Defrosting the Unit
The unit uses an automatic defrost system in which the refrigerated surfaces of the unit
defrost automatically. Defrost water drains into a hole in the floor of the storage compartment
and is channeled into a drain pan located at the back of the unit near the compressor. Heat
transferred from the compressor evaporates any water that has collected in the pan. Be sure
the drain hole in the floor of the unit is clear and unobstructed.
Changing the Light Bulb
The bulb can be replaced with any standard U-shaped, 2-pin compact fluorescent bulb of 5, 7
or 9 watts.
Don’t use any unusual force to remove the old bulb. No tools should be necessary.
Follow steps A through D in the diagram on the following page to remove the old bulb:
