Care & Cleaning
Keep your refrigerator and freezer clean to prevent odor
•When moving the refrigerator, pull straight out. Do not shift the refrigerator from side to side as this may tear or gouge the floor covering. If the refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, be careful not to move the refrigerator beyond the plumbing connections.
•Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch refrigerated surfaces with wet or damp hands.
•Never use CHLORIDE to clean stainless steel.
NOTES:
•Turning the refrigerator temperature control to “0” turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect electrical power to the light bulb or other electrical components. To turn off power to your refrigerator, you must unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
•Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from tape or labels can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, or, touch the glue residue with the sticky side of tape you have already removed. Do not remove the serial plate.
