Follow requirements of local health authorities.

1.Use a detergent-sanitizer of a mild detergent (neutral) or mildly alkaline (recommended for metal surfaces) followed by a sanitizing rinse solution. These chemicals are necessary to kill or deactivate the micro- organisms on the surface areas in contact with stored food. Choose these chemicals carefully. Some are toxic and should only be used on non-food surfaces.

Never scour any part of your refrigerator. Scouring powders or chemicals may cause damage by scratching or dulling the gleaming surface finish. Use alkaline chlorinated or non-chloride cleaners.

3.When using these products, it is important to follow label directions exactly to obtain the correct cleaning action.
