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.

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.
