CARE AND CLEANING
Protecting your investment
Keeping your appliance clean maintains
appearance and prevents odor build-up.
Wipe up any spills immediately and clean
the freezer and refrigerator compart-
ments at least twice a year. When clean-
ing, take the following precautions:
• Never use CHLORIDE or cleaners
with bleach to clean stainless steel.
• Do not wash any removable parts in
a dishwasher.
• Always unplug the electrical power cord
from the wall outlet before cleaning.
• Remove adhesive labels by hand. Do
not use razor blades or other sharp
instruments which can scratch the
appliance surface.
• Do not remove the serial plate.
Do not use abrasive cleaners such as win-
dow sprays, scouring cleansers, brushes,
flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concen-
trated detergents, bleaches or cleansers
containing petroleum products on plastic
parts, interior doors, gaskets or cabinet
liners. Do not use paper towels, metallic
scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning
materials or strong alkaline solutions.
CAUTION
• Pull the unit straight out to move
it. Shifting it from side to side may
damage flooring. Be careful not
to move the appliance beyond the
plumbing connections.
• Damp objects stick to cold metal
surfaces. Do not touch refrigerated
surfaces with wet or damp hands.
• Sudden temperature changes can
cause glass breakage.
IMPORTANT
If you store or move your unit in freez-
ing temperatures, be sure to completely
drain the water supply system. Failure to
do so could result in water leaks when
you put the unit back into service. Con-
tact a service representative to perform
this operation.
NOTE
If you set your temperature controls
to turn off cooling, power to lights and
other electrical components will con-
tinue until you unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet.
