CLEANING THE REFRIGERATOR
Caring for your Samsung Refrigerator prolongs the life of the product and helps keep it from
odor and germs.
Cleaning the Interior
Clean the inside walls and interior parts with a
mild detergent and then wipe it with dry soft
cloth. You may remove the drawers and
shelves for a more thorough cleaning.
Make sure to dry them before putting them
back into place.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the control panel and display panel with
a clean, soft cloth.
Spray water onto the cleaning cloth instead
of spraying directly on the surface of the
refrigerator to ensure even distribution of
moisture on the surface. Doors, handles and
cabinet surfaces should be cleaned with a mild
detergent and then wiped with a dry soft cloth.
To keep your appliance looking its best, the
exterior should be polished once or twice a year.
Do not use Benzene, Thinner or Clorox™ for cleaning.
They may damage the surface of the appliance and can create a risk of fire.
Cleaning the Rubber door seals
If the rubber door seals are dirty, doors may
not close properly and the refrigerator will not
operate efficiently.
Keep the door seals free of grit or grime by
cleaning the doors with a mild detergent and
damp cloth. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
•
Do not spray the refrigerator with water while it is plugged in, as it may cause
an electric shock. Do not clean the refrigerator with benzene, thinner or car
detergent for risk of fire.
•
You may remove the rubber door seal from the door to clean it. Make sure that
you put the rubber door seal back correctly or the refrigerator will not operate
efficiently.
