CARE AND MAINTENANCE

¾Defrosting Your Refrigerator

Defrost the refrigerator when the frost accumulated on the evaporator is about 5mm (1/5 inch) thick. Set the thermostat dial to “OFF” or “DEFROST” position. Remove frozen or perishable foods. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. After defrosting, return the thermostat dial to the desired position. To defrost quickly remove all foods from the refrigerator and leave the door open. Never use a knife or other metal instrument to scrape ice/frost from the evaporator.

¾Cleaning Your Refrigerator

•Turn the temperature control to "OFF", unplug the refrigerator, and remove the food, shelves, and trays.

•Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.

•Wash the shelves and trays with a mild detergent solution.

•The outside of the refrigerator should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

•Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or any electrical parts.

•Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.

¾Vacation Time

•Short vacations: Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

•Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.

¾Moving Your Refrigerator

•Remove all the food.

•Securely tape down all loose items inside your refrigerator.

•Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.

•Tape the door shut.

•Be sure the refrigerator stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect outside of refrigerator with a blanket, or similar item.

¾Energy Saving Tips

•The refrigerator should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.

•Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the refrigerator. Overloading the refrigerator forces the compressor to run longer.

•Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the refrigerator.

•Refrigerator storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient.

•Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
