Cleaning the Outside

The dispenser drip area, beneath the grille, should be wiped dry. Water left in this area may leave deposits. Remove the deposits by adding undiluted vinegar to the well. Soak until the deposits disappear or become loose enough to rinse away.

The dispenser pad/cradle (on dispenser models). Before cleaning, open the freezer door part way to prevent dispensing of ice or water when cleaning. On models with a dispenser pad, the pad can be removed before cleaning. Simply peel the pad away from the back wall of the dispenser. Clean the pad/cradle with

a warm water and baking soda solution— about 15 ml of baking soda to 1 liter of water. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry. To replace the pad, tuck the edges of the pad in the grooves on the back wall of the dispenser. Make sure that the top of the pad goes behind the dispenser collar.

The door handles and trim. Clean with a cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth.

Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean cloth lightly dampened with kitchen appliance wax or mild liquid dish detergent. Dry and polish with a clean, soft cloth.

Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled dish cloth or wet towel. These may leave a residue that can erode the paint. Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing bleach because these products can scratch and weaken the paint finish.

Cleaning the Inside

To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking soda in the refrigerator and freezer compartments.

Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. If this is not practical, wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth when cleaning around switches, lights or controls.

Use warm water and baking soda solution— about 15 ml of baking soda to one liter of water. This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.

Use of any cleaning solution other than that which is recommended, especially those that contain petroleum distillates, can crack or damage the interior of the refrigerator.

Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot water because the extreme temperature difference may cause them to break. Handle glass shelves carefully. Bumping tempered glass can cause it to shatter.

Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the dishwasher.

The chill/thaw tray is dishwasher safe.
