surface.Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher. Always unplug the electricalpower cord from the wall
outlet before cleaning.
When moving the refrigerator, pull straight out. Do not shift the refrigerator from side to side as this may
tear or gouge the floor covering. If the refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, be careful not to move the
refrigerator beyond the plumbing connections.
Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch refrigerated surfaces with wet or damp hands.
To avoid damage and help the refrigerator run as efficiently as possible, clean the condenser periodically.
NOTES:
Turning the refrigerator temperature control to "0" turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect electrical
power to the light bulb or other electrical components.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface when removing
adhesive labels. Any glue left from tape or labels can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild
detergent, or. touch the glue residue with the sticky side of tape you have already removed. Do not remove the
serial plate.

What To Use Tips and Precautions
Use 2 tablespoons of baking soda in 1 quart of warm water. Be sure to wring
excess water out of sponge or cloth before cleaning around controls,
light bulb or any electrical part.
Wipe gaskets with a clean soft cloth.
De not wash any removable items (bins, drawers, etc.) in dishwasher.
Allow glass to warm to room temperature before immersing in warm water.
Vacuum dust from front of toe grille. Remove toe grille (Bee illustration on
page 4). Vacuum backside and wipe with sudsy cloth or sponge. Rinse and
dry.
Do not use commercial household cleaners, ammonia, or alcohol to clean
handles.
Clean stainless steel front and handles with non-abrasive soapy water and a
dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a soft cloth. Wipe stubborn spots with an
ammonia-soaked paper towel, and rinse. Use a non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner. These cleaners can be purchased at most home improvement or
major department stores. Always follow manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: Always clean, wipe and dry with the grain to prevent cross-grain
scratching. Wash the rest of the cabinet with warm water and mild liquid
detergent. Rinse well, and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
No need to clean unless operating refrigerator under particularly dusty or
greasy conditions, or if there is significant pet traffic in your home. If cleaning
is necessary, remove toe grille and use extended vacuum attachment and
condenser cleaning brush to remove dust build-up from condenser coils (see
item "J" in illustration on page 17 for location).
Use the dusting tool attachment on your vacuum to remove dust build-up on
the condenser coils (black tubes and wires) attached to the back of air-cooled
refrigerators only.
Some models have defrost water pan located on top of compressor at bottom
rear of refrigerator (see illustration on next page). Wipe water pan with damp
cloth. NOTE: The defrost water pan is NOT removable.
