Your Amana® JOT™ refrigerator is equipped with a special technology (Dry Erase) on the door’s surface, which allows you to draw and write on it and erase easily; to keep the refrigerator door in good condition, it is necessary to follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT: Only the metal surface of the door is prepared with the Dry Erase technology, which is why the markers should not be used on any plastic parts or on the sides of the refrigerator. If markers are used by mistake on plastic parts or on the side of the refrigerator, it is recommended to clean immediately with liquid dish detergent and water. For assistance in case of prolonged exposure to the marker’s ink, please visit our website at www.amana.com or call the Amana Appliance Customer Service toll free number at
1.Remove the marker kit, which is included inside your refrigerator. Place the marker kit horizontally somewhere in your kitchen.
2.For best results, use Crayola® brand dry erase markers in these recommended colors: black, blue, purple, orange, yellow or brown. Do not use red or green. Always use a marker designed for dry erase surfaces.
IMPORTANT: Do not use permanent markers.
3.The included markers are designed to be erased without water. The marker’s ink can be removed easily without water with a cotton cloth or, in its absence, with a sponge, detergent and water. If there is any ink residue left from prolonged exposure, clean with liquid dish detergent and water.
4.Always use marker on the refrigerator’s clean surface (free of grease and dirt). For cleaning and care of your refrigerator, you should clean the ink residues from the dry erase surface at least once a month.
