CLEANING AND CARING FOR YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Interior (all models)
●
It is important to keep the interior of the refrigerator and freezer clean to help
prevent food from becoming contaminated during storage.
●
The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be
carried out in the refrigerator (ideally once every 1 to 2 weeks).
●
Remove the shelves from cabinet and door. Wash shelves and storage bins in warm
water and detergent; rinse in clean water and dry before replacing.
●
Wipe over the interior surfaces with warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent.
Alternatively you can use 1tsp baking soda dissolved in 1/2qt (500ml) of warm water.
Rinse with clean water.
●
To help remove “old stale refrigerator” smells add a few drops of vanilla essence or
vinegar to the water before cleaning.
●
Clean interior surfaces with warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent. Use a
toothbrush for the magnetic door gasket.
●
Do not use harsh, abrasive cloths on any part of the refrigerator or freezer.
Glass shelves (all models)
Clean with warm water and detergent or a glass cleaner.
Bottle holder (where fitted)
Clean with warm water and detergent. The use of abrasive cleaners and solvents may
cause damage.
Automatic ice dispenser (Ice & Water and Automatic Ice models only)
●
We do not recommend you clean the ice maker componentry, but it is important to
clean the bins occasionally.
●
The storage bin should be cleaned regularly and the old ice in the bottom of the bin
discarded.
●
Wash bin in lukewarm water. Dry thoroughly and replace.
●
When replacing the bin ensure that the scoop is on the right hand side or at the front
of the bin (model dependent).
IMPORTANT!
Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents that may attack
the plastic components of your refrigerator and cause them to crack. It is important
to use only warm water and a small amount of liquid dishwashing detergent on
any components inside and outside your refrigerator. Avoid using anti-bacterial
cleaning products on either the interior or exterior of the cabinet as they may
cause rusting of metal components and cracking of plastic components.
