Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.
Cleaning the Outside
The dispenser well , beneath the grille, should be wiped
dry. Water left in the well may leave deposits. Remove
the deposits by adding undiluted vinegar to the well.
Soak until the deposits disappear or become loose
enough to rinse away.
The dispenser pad . Clean with warm water and baking
soda solution—about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking
soda to a quart (1 L) of water. Rinse thoroughly and
wipe dry.
HINT: Open the freezer door part way to prevent dispensing of ice
or water when cleaning.
The soft door handles (on some models) are easy to keep
clean if they are waxed every few months. Use a
household wax such as Pledge brand or Jubilee brand to
coat the handles. Soil will then easily wash off with soapy
water or a non-abrasive all-purpose cleaner.
The long door handles and trim (on models with a trim kit).
Clean with a cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry with
a soft cloth.
Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean cloth lightly
dampened with kitchen appliance wax or mild liquid
dish detergent. Dry and polish with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled dish cloth or wet towel.
These may leave a residue that can erode the paint. Do not use
scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing
bleach because these products can scratch and weaken the paint
finish.
