Safety

Cleaning the Outside

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.

Instructions

Cleaning the Inside

To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking soda in the fresh food 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 a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to a quart (1 liter) of water. This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Thoroughly rinse and wipe dry.

Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves (on some models) 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.

Do not clean with any products containing detergent, bleach or ammonia. They may damage the refrigerator.

Operating Instructions Installation

Condenser

There is no need for routine condenser cleanings in normal home operating environments. However, in environments that may be particularly dusty or greasy, the condenser should be cleaned periodically for efficient refrigerator operation.

For models with a base grille, the grille must be removed in order to clean the condenser.

To remove the base grille:

Grasp it about 6″ from each end and pull its bottom edge toward you.

To replace the base grille:

Insert the tops of the metal clips into the oval vents, making sure one of the plastic tabs on the back of the grille goes into each

of the oval vents. Then push the bottom of the grille forward until it snaps into place.

Cleaning the condenser:

Sweep away or vacuum up dust.

For models with a base grille, reach the condenser by inserting a brush or vacuum hose into the oval holes.

For models without a base grille, reach the condenser by inserting a brush or vacuum hose under the bottom of the refrigerator.

For best results, use a brush specially designed for this purpose. It is available at most appliance parts stores.

Instructions Troubleshooting Tips

Behind the Refrigerator

Be careful when moving the refrigerator away from the wall. All types of floor coverings can be damaged, particularly cushioned coverings and those with embossed surfaces.

BEFORE moving the refrigerator away from the wall, be sure to adjust the leveling legs up. (See Rollers and Leveling Legs.)

Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it to position by pushing it straight in.

Moving the refrigerator in a side direction may result in damage to the floor covering or refrigerator.

When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure you don’t roll over the power cord or icemaker supply line

(on some models).
