INTERNAL CLEANING
Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm water and a mild soap. Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents,
steel wool, scouring sponges, chemical cleaning agents, or highly perfumed cleaning products to clean the interior as
these will damage the surface and leave behind a strong odor. A sponge, towel, or soft brush is recommended. Wash
with a mixture of two tablespoons (30ml) of baking soda to 1 quart (1.14L) warm water. After cleaning, wipe all surfaces
with a soft cloth and clean water to rinse, and allow the fridge/freezer to dry.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Wash the outside of the cabinet with warm water and a mild soap or detergent.
Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents, chemical cleaning agents, steel wool or scouring sponges to clean the
fridge as it may cause damage to the surfaces.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the internal temperature of the appliance if
the number of times the door is opened is kept to a minimum. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time,
take the proper steps to protect the contents. Note: Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attempting to restart the refrigerator if
operation has been interrupted.
VACATION

hort vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and disconnect the appliance
