Care and Cleaning

Refrigerator/Freezer

Cleaning outside

Door handles and trim—Clean with a cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth.

Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean cloth lightly dampened with mild liquid dish detergent. Dry 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 damage the finish. Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing bleach because these products can scratch and damage the finish.

Stainless steel—Regularly clean and polish the Stainless Steel Door Panels and Handles (on some models) with a commercially available stainless steel cleaner such as Stainless Steel Magic to preserve and protect the fine finish. Stainless Steel Magic is available through GE Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002, or ge.com. Order part number WX10X15.

Do not use appliance wax or polish on the stainless steel.

Cleaning inside

To help prevent odors,

leave an open box of baking soda in the refrigerator/freezer.

Turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box 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 liter) of water. This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Thoroughly rinse and wipe dry.

Other parts of the refrigerator/freezer—

including door gaskets, meat and vegetable drawers, ice storage bin and all plastic parts—can be cleaned the same way. 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.

Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot water because the extreme temperature difference may cause them to break. Handle glass shelves carefully. Rough handling of tempered glass can cause it to shatter.

Do not wash any plastic refrigerator/freezer parts in the dishwasher.

Condenser

To clean the condenser fins:

First turn off the power at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Wait about 30 minutes for the condenser area to cool. Then remove the decorative panel by lifting up and toward you.

Use a soft bristle brush to loosen dust and lint on the condenser fins. Use a vacuum hose to remove soil.

After cleaning: Reconnect power at the fuse box or circuit breaker.

Replace the decorative panel.
