Care and Cleaning

Bottom Freezer Refrigerator

Cleaning 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 mild liquid dish detergent. Dry 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.

The stainless steel panels and door handles

(on some models) can be cleaned with a commercially available stainless steel cleaner such as Stainless Steel Magic.™

Stainless Steel Magic is available at Ace, True Value, Servistar, HWI and other leading stores. It is also available through GE Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002. Order part number WX10X15.

Do not use appliance wax or polish on the stainless steel.

Cleaning 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 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.

Other parts of the refrigerator–including door gaskets, meat and vegetable drawers, ice storage bin and all plastic parts–can be cleaned the same way. After cleaning the door gaskets, apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to the door gaskets at the hinge side. This helps keep the gaskets from sticking and bending out of shape.

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.

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 annually

for efficient refrigerator operation.

To clean the condenser:

1Turn off the power at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Wait about 30 minutes for the condenser area to cool.

2Raise the grille panel at the top of the refrigerator.

3Use a soft bristle brush to loosen dust and lint on the condenser fins. Use a vacuum hose to remove soil.

4Lower the grille panel.

5Reconnect power at the fuse box or circuit breaker.

Condenser Coils

Clean the condenser periodically with a brush.
