CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord before cleaning. Do not touch refrigerated surfaces with
wet or damp hands. Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Before cleaning the freezer, allow it to
warm up. Allow glass shelves to warm up before immersing in warm water.
Tips and Precautions
Remove the base grille by grasping the ends and
pulling straight out. To replace, align the clips with the
round openings in the cabinet and push each end in
until the base grille snaps into place.
No need for cleaning unless environment is
particularly greasy, dusty or there is significant pet
traffic in the home (see page 12).
Dry with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled
dishwashing cloth or wet towel. These may leave
residue that can scratch and weaken the paint. Do not
use scouring pads, powdered cleansers, bleach or
cleaners containing bleach. These products can scratch
and erode the paint finish.
Do not wax plastic or vinyl parts.
Use 1-2 tablespoons baking soda per quart of water.
Be sure to wring out excess water from sponge or
cloth when cleaning around controls, lights, or
electrical parts.
Allow the glass to warm up to room temperature
before immersing in warm water.
Never use hot
water.
See above for baking soda solution.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, concentrated
detergents, bleaches, cleaning waxes, solvents or
polish cleaners to clean the refrigerator interior.
Dry thoroughly. Do Not wash in automatic dishwasher.
