Care and Cleaning

Built-In Refrigerators

Cleaning outside

The spill shelf and the area beneath it should

be cleaned periodically with a mild liquid dish detergent.

Dispenser cradle–Before cleaning, lock the dispenser by touching CONTROL LOCK for 3 seconds to prevent activating the dispenser. Clean with warm water and a mild liquid dish detergent. Rinse thoroughly and

wipe dry. Unlock the dispenser by touching CONTROL LOCK for 3 seconds.

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 GEAppliances.com. Order part number WX10X15.

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

Cleaning inside

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

Do not wash the tray or any plastic refrigerator parts in the dishwasher.

Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves 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.
