Cleaning
WARNING
•
Use non-lammable cleaner. Failure to do so can
result in ire, explosion, or death.
CAUTION
•
Do not use an abrasive cloth or sponge when
cleaning the interior and exterior of the
refrigerator.
•
Do not place your hand on the bottom surface of
the refrigerator when opening and closing the
doors.
•
When lifting the hinge free of the latch, be careful
that the door does not fall forward.
General Cleaning Tips
•
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost
automatically; however, clean both sections once a
month to prevent odors.
•
Wipe up spills immediately.
•
Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power before
cleaning.
•
Remove all removable parts, such as shelves.
•
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild
detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or
harsh cleaners.
•
Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly.
•
When cleaning the inside or outside of the
appliance, do not wipe it with a rough brush,
toothpaste, or lammable materials. Do not use
cleaning agents containing lammable substances.
−
This may cause discoloration or damage to the
appliance.
−
Flammable substances: alcohol (ethanol,
methanol, isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol,
etc.), thinner, bleach, benzene, lammable liquid,
abrasive, etc.
Inside Walls
•
Allow freezer to warm up so the cloth will not stick.
To help remove odors, wash the inside of the
refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm
water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of
water (26 g soda to 1 liter water.) Be sure the baking
soda is completely dissolved so it does not scratch
the surfaces of the refrigerator.
Door Liners and Gaskets
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent
in warm water. Do not use cleaning waxes,
concentrated etergents, bleaches, or cleaners
containing petroleum on plastic refrigerator parts.
Plastic Parts (covers and panels)
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent
in warm water. Do not use glass cleaners, abrasive
cleansers, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or
damage the material.
