GENERAL CLEANING TIPS
*Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
*Remove all removable parts, such as shelves, crispers, etc. Refer to sections in Using Your Refrigerator for removal instructions.
*Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners.
*Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly.
*Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
EXTERIOR
Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps provide rust protection. Do not wax plastic parts. Wax painted metal surfaces at least twice a year using appliance wax (or auto paste wax). Apply wax with a clean, soft cloth.
For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
INSIDE WALLS (allow freezer to warm up so the cloth will not slick)
To help remove odors, you can wash the inside of the refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of water (26 g soda to 1 liter water.) Be sure the baking soda is completely dissolved so it does not scratch the surfaces of the refrigerator.
_t_CAUTION: While cleaning the inside, do not spray water.
DOOR LINERS AND GASKETS
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleaners containing petroleum on plastic refrigerator parts.
PLASTIC PARTS (Covers and Panels)
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use window sprays, abrasive cleansers, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or damage the material.
CONDENSER COILS
Use a vacuum cleaner with an attachment to clean the condenser cover and vents. Do not remove the panel covering the condenser coil area.
