Maintenance

Cabinet Cleaning

The cabinet interior should be cleaned frequently. Any
spilled liquid should be wiped off immediately. Stains
resulting from some spills can be permanent if not quickly
removed. The cabinet exterior should be cleaned occa-
sionally. A mild detergent and lukewarm water or a solu-
tion of bicarbonate of soda (1 tablespoon per gallon of
water) is recommended for cleaning the interior and exte-
rior of the cabinet. All surfaces should be rinsed and thor-
oughly dried.
Cleaning the Condenser
For efficient operation, it is recommended that the con-
denser coil and fan be cleaned every 4 to 6 months. On a
swinging door model, the condenser coil is located behind
the vented part of the header panel (left side). Remove
the header panel for access. The condenser coil on a
sliding glass door model is located behind the base grille,
at the bottom of the unit.
Vacuum clean the front surface of the coil thoroughly, or
direct forced air through the condenser from the rear. If
necessary, use a stiff bristled brush to loosen any dirt.

Condensate Evaporator Pan

The condensate evaporator pan is located behind the
compressor fan, which is on the top, left side of the
swinging door model refrigerators, and behind the base
grill of the sliding door model refrigerators. This pan
should be cleaned at least once a year to prevent foul
odors and operate efficiently. Vacuum clean if dry, or
sponge clean with soapy water.
