Troubleshooting Tips Installation Instructions
Dispenser drip area.
Cleaning the Outside
The dispenser drip area, (on some models) 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 cradle (on some models). Before cleaning, lock the dispenser by pressing and holding the LOCK pad for 3 seconds. Clean with warm water and baking soda
The door handles and trim. Clean with a cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth.
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.
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 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. 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.
