CLEANING AND CARING FOR YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Exterior (all models)
Stainless exterior doors
●
●
Clean the exterior door with liquid dishwashing detergent dissolved in warm water and
a soft cloth.
●
●
Dry the door with a lint-free cloth.
●
●
The use of any abrasive or stainless steel cleaners and solvents will damage the door surface.
Other exterior surfaces (all models)
●
●
Clean all other exterior surfaces with a mix of warm water and liquid dishwashing
detergent, and a soft cloth.
●
●
If necessary, clean the magnetic door gasket, the centre door gasket and the pocket
handles with an old toothbrush, warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent.
Cabinet surround
●
●
To maximise operating efficiency regularly
vacuum the flooring around your appliance.
●
●
Cleaning behind the appliance is required once
or twice a year. More frequent cleaning may be
necessary for dusty homes or those with pets
shedding hair.
●
●
To do this wind up the feet and carefully ease
the refrigerator out of its position. Switch off
and unplug.
●
●
Vacuum the flooring behind your appliance and the
rear compartment cover (where fitted) to remove
dust accumulation. Use a dry lint-free cloth to clean
the appliance walls and surrounding cabinetry.
●
●
After cleaning, plug in and switch on. Push the
appliance into position and wind feet down.
WARNING!
Electric Shock Hazard. Do not remove rear compartment cover. This may expose you
to the risk of an electric shock.
Water dispenser pad and interface (Ice & Water models only)
●
●
We have incorporated a Dispenser and ‘Key
Lock’ function in your refrigerator to make
cleaning easier. This will help you to avoid
accidental water dispensing while you clean.
●
●
Clean the pad and interface panel with a soft
damp cloth.
Drip tray (Ice & Water models only)
●
●
To clean, take the tray out of the dispenser
panel and pull the two halves of the tray apart.
●
●
Clean in warm water with a mild detergent.
Dry and clip back together.
