Water Filtration System
(on some models)
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
Water Filter Status Light (on some models)
The water filter status light will help you know when to change your water filter.
■When the water filter status display changes from “GOOD” to “ORDER,” this tells you that it is almost time to change the water filter cartridge.
■Replace the water filter cartridge when the water filter status display changes to “REPLACE.”

REFRIGERATOR CARE
Cleaning
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
To Clean Your Refrigerator:
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools.
1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2.Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
3.Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
WARNING
Broken Glass Hazard
Do not hit refrigerator glass doors.
Protect glass surface and edges during installation or removal of doors.
Failure to do so can result in serious eye injury or minor cuts.
4.On some models, wash glass door panels with a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
NOTE: Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, furniture, toys, or other objects. Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the glass may weaken its structure, causing an increased likelihood of breakage at a later date.
