Cleaning
WARNING
•
Use non-ammable cleaner. Failure to do so can
result in re, explosion, or death.
CAUTION
•
Do not use an abrasive cloth or sponge when
cleaning the interior and exterior of the
refrigerator.
•
Do not place your hand on the bottom surface of
the refrigerator when opening and closing the
doors.
General Cleaning Tips
•
The refrigerator compartments defrost
automatically; however, clean all sections once a
month to prevent odors.
•
Wipe up spills immediately.
•
Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power before
cleaning.
•
Remove all removable parts, such as shelves.
•
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild
detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or
harsh cleaners.
•
Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly.
Exterior
Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps provide
rust protection. Do not wax plastic parts. Wax painted
metal surfaces at least twice a year using appliance
wax (or auto paste wax). Apply wax with a clean, soft
cloth.
For products with black stainless steel exterior, spray
glass cleaner on a clean, microfiber cloth and rub in
direction of grain. Do not spray glass cleaner directly
at the display panel. Do not use harsh or abrasive
cleaners.
For products with a standard stainless steel exterior,
use a damp microber cloth and rub in the direction
of the grain. Dry with a paper towel to avoid streaks.
For stubborn stains and ngerprints, use a few drops
of liquid dish soap in water, and rinse with hot water
before drying. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners.
Containers and Bins
•
Containers and bins can easily become dirty from
spilled food. Remove them occasionally and rinse
them out to avoid odors.
See page 28 for instructions on removing the middle
and bottom drawers for cleaning.
•
Shelves can become dirty from spilled food.
Remove them occasionally and clean with a wet
cloth. To remove the shelf, lift it at the back and pull
it forward.
•
Before cleaning the container lids, remove the
rubber packing from inside the lid. Remember to
replace the rubber packing once the lids are clean.
Do not clean the containers and lids in water hotter
than 122°F (50°C).
Gently clean the containers with a soft sponge to
avoid scratching the surface.
Inside Walls
•
Allow freezer to warm up so the cloth will not stick.
To help remove odors, wash the inside of the
refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm
water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of
water (26 g soda to 1 liter water.) Be sure the baking
soda is completely dissolved so it does not scratch
the surfaces of the refrigerator.
Door Liners and Gaskets
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent
in warm water. Do not use cleaning waxes,
concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleaners
containing petroleum on plastic refrigerator parts.
Covers and Control Panel
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent
in warm water. Do not use glass cleaners, abrasive
cleansers, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or
damage the material.
Condenser Coils
Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush or crevice
attachment to clean the condenser cover and vents.
Do not remove the panel covering the condenser coil
area.
