Cleaning and Maintenance
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life.
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and lukewarm water solution such as 2 tablespoons
of baking soda to 1 quart of water.
Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft
clean towel to prevent water spotting. If the door panel is stainless steel, it can discolor when exposed to chlorine
gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent and warm water solution.
Never use an abrasive or caustic cleaning agent.
