CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- 9 -
It is important to clean and maintain the refrigerator once a month. When performing maintenance,
make certain the refrigerator is unplugged from the power outlet.
Wipe the inner and outer surfaces of the refrigerator clean with a damp cloth. If needed, use a
gentle detergent or a solution of baking soda and water. Remove any residue with clean water and
a soft cloth, then dry with another cloth.
Once clean, you may use a common kitchen appliance wax on outer surfaces.
Inspect, clean and maintain the rubber gasket around the door. A small amount of petroleum jelly
applied to the bracket side of gaskets will keep the gasket pliable and ensure a good seal.
IMPORTANT:
- Do NOT use hot water, harsh detergents, gasoline, kerosene, solvents, acids or anything
flammable to clean the refrigerator. These can damage the paint and degrade the plastic
components.
- Do NOT spray the refrigerator with water as this may cause rust and degrade the insulation.
- Do NOT clean glass shelves with hot water when they are cold. Shelves may break if
exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact. For your protection, tempered glass is
designed to shatter into many small pebble-size pieces.
