Hazard
Use nonflammable
cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Clean the refrigerator about once a month to avoid build-up of
odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
To clean your refrigerator:
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect
power.
2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves, etc.
3. 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.
•
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. These can
scratch or damage materials.
•
To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a
mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs to 1 qt
[26 g to 0.95 L] of water).
4. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do
not use abrasive or harsh cleaners, or cleaners containing
chlorine. These can scratch or damage materials. Dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth. For additional protection against
damage to painted metal exteriors, apply appliance wax (or
auto paste wax) with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax plastic
parts.
NOTE: To keep your stainless steel refrigerator looking like
new and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that
you use the manufacturer's
approved Stainless Steel Cleaner
& Polish. To order the cleaner, see "Accessories."
IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only!
Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish to come into
contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces,
dispenser covers or door gaskets. If accidental contact does
occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent in
warm water. Dry thoroughly
with a soft cloth.
5. Replace the removable parts.
6. Clean the condenser coils regularly. They are located behind
the base grille. Coils may need to be cleaned as often as

to
clean the condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.
