INTERNAL CLEANING

Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm water and a mild soap. Never use abrasive or 

corrosive cleaning agents, steel wool, scouring sponges, chemical cleaning agents, or highly 
perfumed cleaning products to clean the interior as these will damage the surface and leave 
behind a strong odor. A sponge, towel, or soft brush is recommended. Wash with a mixture of two 
tablespoons (30ml) of baking soda to 1 quart (1.14L) warm water. After cleaning, wipe all surfaces 
with a soft cloth and clean water to rinse, and allow the fridge/freezer to dry.  

EXTERNAL CLEANING

Wash the outside of the cabinet with warm water and a mild soap or detergent. 
Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents, chemical cleaning agents, steel wool or scouring 
sponges to clean the fridge as it may cause damage to the surfaces.

POWER FAILURE

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the internal 
temperature of the appliance if the number of times the door is opened is kept to a minimum. 

If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, take the proper steps to protect the 

contents.

Note: 

Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attempting to restart the refrigerator if operation has been 

interrupted.

VACATION

• Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and 

disconnect the appliance from its power source. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent 
odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.

MOVING

• Remove all items.
• Tape down shelves inside the appliance.

• Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.

• Tape the door shut.

• Be sure the appliance stays in the upright position during transportation. Protect the outside of 

the appliance with a blanket.

• If the appliance is placed on its back or side during transportation, upon reaching the 

destination, allow it to remain upright for 6 hours before plugging in to avoid damage to internal 

components.
