
detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive

Exterior
Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps
provide rust protection. Do not wax plastic parts.

using appliance wax (or auto paste wax). Apply wax
with a clean, soft cloth.

clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in


of the refrigerator when opening and closing.
WARNING
Use non-flammable cleaner. Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
Inside Walls (allow freezer to warm
up so the 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 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 detergents, bleaches, or cleaners
containing petroleum on plastic refrigerator parts.
Plastic Parts (covers and panels)

in warm water. Do not use glass cleaners, abrasive
cleansers, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or
damage the material.

removed by a qualified technician.
