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.

5.There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home operating environments. If the environment is particularly greasy or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in the home, the condenser should be cleaned every 2 to

3 months to ensure maximum efficiency. If you need to clean the condenser:

■Remove the base grille. See the “Door Removal” instructions, either in the User Instructions or the separate instruction sheet provided with your refrigerator.

■Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille, the open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of the condenser.

■Replace the base grille when finished.

6.Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.

Changing the Light Bulbs

NOTE: Not all bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape and wattage. On some models, the dispenser light requires a heavy duty 10-watt bulb. All other lights require a 40-watt bulb. Replacement bulbs are available from your dealer.

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Remove light shield when applicable.

NOTE: To clean the light shield, wash it with warm water and liquid detergent. Rinse and dry the shield well.

3.Remove light bulb and replace with one of the same size, shape and wattage.

4.Replace light shield when applicable.

5.Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
