CARE AND CLEANING
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost
automatically. However, clean both sections about once a
month to prevent odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
GENERAL CLEANING TIPS
Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
Remove all removable parts, such as shelves, crispers, etc.
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.
Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
OUTSIDE
Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps provide rust
protection. Do not wax plastic parts. Wax painted metal
surfaces at least twice a year using appliance wax (or auto
paste wax). Apply wax with a clean, soft cloth.
For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do
not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a
soft cloth.
INSIDE WALLS (allow freezer to warm up so
cloth will not stick)
To help remove odors, you can wash the inside of the
refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm water.
Mix 2 tablespoons baking soda to 1 quart of water (26 g
soda to 1 liter water). Be sure the baking soda is
completely dissolved so does it not scratch the surfaces of
the refrigerator.
DOOR LINERS AND GASKETS
Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents,
bleaches, or cleaners containing petroleum plastic parts.
PLASTIC PARTS (covers and panels)
Do not use paper towels, window sprays, abrasive
cleansers, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or
damage the material.
CONDENSER COILS
Remove grille base.
Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to
clean condenser coils.
Vacuum coils when dusty or dirty. Coils may need to be
cleaned as often as every other month.
Replace grille base.
LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
To change the refrigerator light:
1. Unplug the power cord from the outlet.
2. Remove refrigerator shelves.
3.
4. Turn the bulb counterclockwise.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, either unplug
the refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker
or fuse box.
NOTE: Moving the control to the OFF position
does not remove power to the light circuit.
Explosion Hazard
Use non-flammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

with the help of a flat screwdriver and pull the
shield down to remove it.
