Cleaning

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
Exterior Cleaning
Please see the exterior cleaning information specific to your
model.

mar the finish.

only. Damage to stainless steel finish due to improper use
of cleaning products or using non-recommended cleaning
products is not covered under the warranty.
Avoid exposing stainless steel appliances to caustic or
■
corrosive elements such as high-salt, high-moisture, or
high-humidity environments. Damage due to exposure
to these elements is not covered under the warranty.
DO USE
✔ Soft, clean cloth
✔ Warm, soapy water
with a mild detergent

the "Accessories" section.
NOTES:
If unintentional contact does occur, clean plastic part with
■
a sponge and mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly
with a soft cloth.
Just because a cleaner is a liquid does not mean it is
■
nonabrasive. Many liquid cleansers formulated to be gentle
on tile and smooth surfaces still damage stainless steel.
Citric acid permanently discolors stainless steel. To avoid
■
damaging the finish of your stainless steel refrigerator:
Do not allow these substances to remain on the finish:
✘ Mustard ✘ Citrus-based sauces
✘ Tomato juice ✘ Citrus-based products
✘ Marinara sauce

concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleansers containing
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners,
