No Clean
TM
Condenser
A clean condenser means more efficient refrigerator
operation. Thanks to the unique design of the No
Clean
TM
Condenser, there is no longer a need for
routine condenser cleaning in normal home usage
surroundings.
Some operating environments may be particularly
dusty or greasy. In these situations, the condenser can
be periodically cleaned to insure maximum efficiency.
Replacing a Light Bulb
Always use a standard 40 watt appliance bulb.
The light bulb is located under the top of the
refrigerator compartment.
• Unscrew the light bulb and replace.
