CLEANING THE REFRIGERATOR
Caring for your Kenmore Elite™ Side-By-Side
Refrigerator prolongs the life of your appliance and helps
keep it odor- and germ-free.
A CAUTION
Do not use benzene, thinner, or bleach for cleaning.
They could cause a fire or damage the surface of the
appliance.
Cleaning the Interior
Clean the inside walls and accessories with a mild
detergent and then wipe dry with a soft cloth. You can
remove the drawers and shelves for a more thorough

Cleaning the Rubber Door Seals
Dirty door seals can prevent the doors from closing
properly and lower the refrigerator’s operating efficiency.
Clean the door seals with a mild detergent and a damp
cloth; then wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the digital panel and LCD display panel with a
clean, soft cloth. Spray water onto the cleaning cloth
instead of spraying directly on the surface of the
refrigerator.
The doors, handles, and cabinet surfaces should be
cleaned with a mild detergent and then wiped dry with
a soft cloth.
To keep your appliance looking its best, the exterior
should be polished once or twice a year.
Cleaning the Ice/Water Dispenser
A WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard
Do not spray water on the refrigerator while it is
plugged in. It could cause an electric shock resulting
in death, personal injury, or damage to the appliance.
1. Push down one end of the tray in the bottom of the
dispenser. Grasp the other end of the tray and
remove it.
2. Wipe the dispenser with a clean, damp cloth; then dry
with a soft cloth.
3. Wash the bottom tray in warm, soapy water; rinse and
dry. Replace the tray in the bottom of the dispenser.
