Cleaning the Outside

The dispenser well, (on some models) beneath the grille, should be wiped dry. Water left in the well 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 pad (on some models). Clean with warm water and baking soda solution— about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to a quart (1 l) of water. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.

HINT: Open the freezer door part way to prevent dispensing of ice or water when cleaning.

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) should be cleaned with a liquid stainless steel cleaner using a clean, soft cloth. Liquid stainless steel cleaners are available at discount, hardware and department stores.

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 l) of water. This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.

After cleaning the door gaskets, apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to the door gaskets at the hinge side. This helps keep the gaskets from sticking and bending out of shape.

Drain opening in freezer compartment. During yearly cleaning, remove bottom freezer basket and flush a solution of baking soda— 1 teaspoon (5 ml) and 2 cups (500 ml) of hot (not boiling) water—through the drain line with the help of a meat baster. This will help eliminate odor and reduce the likelihood of a clogged drain line. If drain becomes clogged, use a meat baster and baking soda solution to force the clog through the drain line.

Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves (on some models) 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.

Wash ice trays in lukewarm water only—do not put them in an automatic dishwasher.

20-27 specifications

The GE 20-27 is a groundbreaking innovation in the realm of gas turbine technology, designed to meet the increasing energy demands with unparalleled efficiency and sustainability. This turbine model exemplifies the commitment of General Electric to deliver power solutions that not only drive economic growth but also align with environmental stewardship.

One of the main features of the GE 20-27 is its high efficiency in power generation. The turbine operates within a combined-cycle power plant environment, integrating both gas and steam turbines to maximize energy output from the same fuel input. This method significantly raises the overall efficiency, often exceeding 60%, which is a benchmark in modern power generation.

Technologically, the GE 20-27 employs advanced materials and components that enhance its durability and performance. The turbine blades are made from high-strength alloys and ceramic matrix composites, designed to withstand extreme temperatures and stresses. This focus on materials science not only improves the longevity of the turbine but also enhances its performance, allowing it to operate under a wide range of conditions.

The turbine incorporates cutting-edge aerodynamic design principles to increase airflow and optimize combustion efficiency. With its innovative combustion system, the GE 20-27 achieves lower emissions, contributing to cleaner power production. This aspect is particularly vital in a world increasingly concerned with climate change and pollution. The reduced nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon emissions make the GE 20-27 a viable option for utilities looking to enhance their environmental profile.

Additionally, the GE 20-27 features advanced digital capabilities through GE's Digital Wind Farm initiatives. This integration allows operators to monitor performance in real-time, utilizing data analytics to predict maintenance needs and optimize operational efficiency. The predictive maintenance capability transforms the way operators manage power generation, leading to reduced downtime and increased reliability.

Another characteristic worth noting is the flexibility of the GE 20-27 to run on various fuels, including natural gas and renewable sources. This versatility allows operators to adapt to changing market conditions and regulatory environments without significant investments in new infrastructure.

In conclusion, the GE 20-27 turbine model showcases a harmonious blend of efficiency, technology, and environmental responsibility. Through advanced design and materials, coupled with digital innovation, it stands as a hallmark of modern energy solutions, capable of addressing both the present and future needs of the global energy landscape.
