PROPER CARE AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING
Before cleaning your refrigerator, ALWAYS
unplug it from the power source. Failure to heed
this warning could result in injury or death from
electric shock.
NOTE: Before using any cleaning products, be sure
to read the manufacturer's instructions
and warnings. This will help avoid personal
injury or damage to property.
INTERIOR CLEANING
Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of
baking soda mixed with warm water. Use a sponge
or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution,
to wipe the inside of your refrigerator.
Avoid cleaning any cold glass (shelves, crisper
cover glass, etc.) with hot water. The glass can
break and cause personal injury. Handle all glass
parts with care at all times.
Do not attempt to wash any parts in a dishwasher.
Do not use harsh chemicals, ammonia, chlorine
bleach, concentrated detergent, solvents,
abrasives or metal scouring pads to clean your
refrigerator, inside or out. They can damage and/
or discolor the refrigerator finish.
EXTERIOR CLEANING
Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth with
kitchen appliance wax or a mild detergent to clean
the exterior of the refrigerator.
Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth with
warm soapy water to clean the handles and trim.
Use a clean, soft towel to dry.
For stainless steel models, use a dry cloth and
stainless steel polish.
Door gaskets should be cleaned every three
months following the instructions for interior
cleaning. Clean gaskets will maintain a better seal
than dirty gaskets. Lightly apply petroleum jelly to
the hinge side of the gaskets to keep the gasket
pliable and assure a good seal.
Never use a dirty cloth to clean the exterior of
the refrigerator. Dirty cloths may leave residue
on the refrigerator that can damage the finish.
Also, avoid the use of harsh chemicals, ammonia,
chlorine bleach, concentrated detergent, solvents,
abrasives or metal scouring pads to clean the
outside of the refrigerator.
