FREEZER COMPARTMENT
(continued)
Cleaning—Inside
Refreshment Center Compartment door—inside. Wipe up spills
right away. Use 15 ml of baking soda in one liter of water to clean the
inside door surface, Refreshment Center bin and inside access door.
Rinse, wipe dry.
Inside the fresh food and freezer compartments should be cleaned
at least once a year. Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. If this is
not practical, wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth when
cleaning around switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution—about 15 ml of baking
soda to one liter of water. This both cleans and neutralizes odor. Rinse
thoroughly with water and wipe dry.
Other parts of the refrigerator—including door gaskets, meat and
vegetable drawers, ice storage bin and all plastic parts—can be
cleaned the same way. After cleaning door gaskets, apply a thin layer
of petroleum jelly to the door gaskets at the hinge side. This helps
keep the gaskets from sticking and bending out of shape. If the freezer
baskets don’t slide freely after cleaning, lubricate them with petroleum
jelly. Do not use cleansing powders or other abrasive cleaners.
To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking soda in the
rear of the refrigerator, on the top shelf. Change the box every three
months. An open box of baking soda in the freezer will absorb stale
freezer odors.
Quick Serve
TM
dishes (on some models) and lids can be cleaned
in an automatic dishwasher or by hand with liquid dishwashing
detergent and water. You can remove stains by soaking them in a
bleach and water solution—1 part chlorine bleach to 3 parts water.
(Stubborn stains may require soaking.) Use a plastic scouring pad
to remove burned-on soil. Do not use cleansing powders or other
abrasive cleaners.
Drain opening in the freezer
compartment. During yearly cleaning,
remove bottom freezer basket and flush
a baking soda solution—5 ml of baking
soda and 500 ml of hot (not boiling)
water—through the drain line with the
help of a meat baster. This will help
eliminate odor and reduce the likelihood
of a clogged drain line.
If drain becomes clogged, use a meat
baster and baking-soda-and-water solution
to force the clog through the drain line.
Do not wash any plastic parts from your refrigerator in
your automatic dishwasher.
CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning—Outside
Refreshment Center Compartment door—outside. It’s important
that you use only window cleaner without ammonia or a damp cloth
to clean the glass and trim. Avoid using wax on the Refreshment
Center door.
The ice and water dispenser spill shelf should be wiped dry
immediately to prevent spotting. Water left on the shelf may leave
deposits that you can remove by soaking in undiluted vinegar.
You can also use a paste of non-precipitating water softener and water,
or 5 ml of citric acid powder per 500 ml of hot tap water. Soak until
the deposit disappears or becomes loose enough to rinse away.
Usually 30 minutes soaking time is adequate. Avoid using wax on the
spill shelf and trim.
The dispenser pad can be cleaned by using a warm water and baking
soda solution—about 15 ml of baking soda to one liter of water. Rinse
thoroughly with water and wipe dry.
The door handles can be cleaned with a cloth dampened with a
solution of mild liquid dishwashing detergent and water. Dry with a
soft cloth. Don’t use wax on the door handles with metal trim.
Keep the finish clean. Wipe with a clean cloth lightly dampened with
kitchen appliance wax or mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Dry and
polish with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wipe the refrigerator with a
soiled dishwashing cloth or wet towel. These may leave a residue that
can erode the paint. Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners,
bleach or cleaners containing bleach because these products can
scratch and weaken the paint finish.
Protect the paint finish. The outside of the refrigerator has a high
quality, baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it will stay new-
looking and rust-free for years. Apply kitchen/appliance wax when the
refrigerator is new and then at least twice a year.
Deep Door Shelves in Freezer Compartment
(on some models)
To remove the shelf fronts: Lift straight up until the
mounting hooks come out of the slots in the door.
To replace: Line up the hooks with the slots in the door
and push in and down.
For easier cleaning you can remove the shelf fronts
in the freezer compartment.
