REFRIGERATOR CARE
Cleaning Your Refrigerator
NOTE: To prevent the buildup of odors, clean the refrigerator about once a month. Follow the
below procedures for cleaning:
1. Disconnect from power.
2. Remove parts such as shelves, etc. that can be taken out of the refrigerator.
3. Using a clean sponge or soft cloth, hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a mild detergent in warm water. DO NOT use abrasive or harsh
cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,
concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products. DO NOT
use harsh cleaning tools such as paper towels or scouring pads, as these can scratch or
damage the surfaces of the refrigerator.
4. For stainless steel and painted metal exterior surfaces, use a clean sponge or soft cloth
and a mild detergent in warm water. DO NOT use abrasive or harsh cleaners, or cleaners
containing chlorine, as these can scratch or damage the material. Using a soft cloth, dry
thoroughly.
5. To help with removing odors, you can use a mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs
to 1 qt of water) to wash the interior walls.
6. After cleaning, replace all of the parts that were removed from refrigerator.
7. The condenser coils, located behind the base grille, should also be cleaned regularly. This
may be as often as every other month. Cleaning the condenser coils may help reduce
how much energy the refrigerator uses.
Remove the base grille (see “Removing / Replacing the Base Grill” section on page 9).
When the condenser coils are dusty or dirty, use a vacuum cleaner with an extension
attachment.
Replace the base grille.
8. After cleaning the refrigerator, plug in or reconnect power.
Replacing the Light Bulb
NOTE: The bulb should be exchanged with one of the same size, shape, and wattage, as not all
appliance bulbs are suited for your refrigerator.
1. Disconnect from power.
2. Remove the screw located at the back of the light shield with a Phillips screwdriver. By
pulling the light shield back, remove the tabs attached to the refrigerator, and detach the
light shield.
3. Replace the bulb.
4. To reattach the light shield, push the tabs back in. Align the holes and insert the screw,
tightening as needed.
5. Connect to power.
