Explosion Hazard

Use non-flammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However, clean both sections about once a month to prevent odors. Wipe up spills immediately.

GENERAL CLEANING TIPS

Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

Remove all removable parts, such as shelves, crispers, etc.

Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners.

Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly.

Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

OUTSIDE

Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps provide rust protection. Do not wax plastic parts. Wax painted metal surfaces at least twice a year using appliance wax (or auto paste wax). Apply wax with a clean, soft cloth.

For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

Note: Avoid door surface contact with chemical products that contain Phosphate or Chlorine.

INSIDE WALLS (allow freezer to warm up so

cloth will not stick)

To help remove odors, you can wash the inside of the refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm water. Mix 2 tablespoons baking soda to 1 quart of water (26 g soda to 1 liter water). Be sure the baking soda is completely dissolved so does it not scratch the surfaces of the refrigerator.

DOOR LINERS AND GASKETS

Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleaners containing petroleum plastic parts.

PLASTIC PARTS (covers and panels)

Do not use windows sprays, abrasive cleaners, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or damage the material. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly.

CONDENSER COILS

Remove grille base.

Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean condenser coils.

Vacuum coils when dusty or dirty. Coils may need to be cleaned as often as every other month.

Replace grille base.

BACK COVER

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Before you begin, either unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.

NOTE: Back cover should only be removed by a qualified technician.

Clean the vents on the back cover. Use a vacuum cleaner with the brush attachment, at least twice a year to keep your

refrigerator workingBACK COVER efficiently.

LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT

Electrical Shock Hazard

Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, either unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

NOTE: Moving the control to the OFF position does not remove power to the light circuit.

NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to replace the bulb with a maximum rating of 60 watts and is the same size and shape.

NOTE: The light bulbs will turn off if door is left open for seven continuous minutes. Shutting door for one second will make light bulbs come back on.

To change the refrigerator light:

1.Unplug the power cord from the outlet.

2.Remove refrigerator shelves.

3.Release the hooks on the front of the light shield

with the help of a flat screwdriver and pull the shield down to remove it.
