CLEANING CARE — INTERIOR/EXTERIOR
Interior
●
It is important to keep the interior of the refrigerator and freezer clean to help prevent
food from becoming contaminated during storage.
●
The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be carried
out (ideally once every 1 to 2 weeks) in the refrigerator.
●
Remove the shelves, door shelves and bins and rinse these parts in a mixture of warm
water and liquid dishwashing detergent. Rinse and dry the shelves and bins thoroughly
before replacing them into the refrigerator.
●
Wipe over the interior surfaces with a mixture of warm water and liquid dishwashing
detergent or baking soda dissolved in warm water (add 1tsp of baking soda to each
500mls of water). Rinse with clean water.
●
To help remove “old stale refrigerator” smells add a few drops of vanilla essence or
vinegar to the water before cleaning.
●
Do not use harsh, abrasive cloths or cleaners or highly perfumed, strong smelling
cleaners or solvents on any part of the refrigerator as they can cause damage.
Glass shelves
●
Clean with warm water and detergent or a glass cleaner. If cleaning the shelves without
removing from the cabinet, use only warm water and detergent as a glass cleaner can
damage the plastic components of your refrigerator.
Exterior surfaces
●
Clean exterior surfaces with warm water and detergent only.
●
If necessary, clean the magnetic door gasket with an old toothbrush, and a mixture of
warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent.
