handles.

Open refrigerator or freezer door.
■
Slide out decorator panel and filler board.
■
Repeat process for other panels and filler boards.
■
Store panel and filler boards to prevent scratching.

¹⁄₈
" (3.18 mm) decorator panel into place behind

Care for Decorator Panels
1. Clean panels with an anti-static cleaner (available in
electronics or computer departments) or mild soap and water
with a clean, soft, damp cloth.
2. Rinse panels thoroughly and blot dry using a dry, soft cloth or
chamois.
NOTE: Do not use paper towels or cleaners which contain
solvents such as ammonia. They can damage the surface of
the panels.
3. If small scratches should appear on the panels, they may be
filled using an automotive paste wax (not a cleaner/wax
combination). Apply wax sparingly and buff lightly with a
clean, soft cloth using a circular motion.
