REFRIGERATOR CARE
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 prevent
odors from building up. Wipe up spills immediately.
To clean your refrigerator:.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect
power.
2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves,
crispers, etc.
3. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly.
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
•
Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning
waxes, concentrated
detergents, bleaches or cleansers
containing
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior
and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels,
scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can
scratch or damage materials.
•
To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a
mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs. to 1 qt.
[26 g to .95 L] of water).
4. Wash stainless steel and painted metal exteriors with 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. For additional protection against damage to painted
metal exteriors, apply appliance wax (or auto paste wax) with
a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax plastic parts.
NOTE: To keep your Stainless Steel refrigerator looking like
new and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that
you use the manufacturer's
approved Stainless
Steel
Cleaner & Polish.
IMPORTANT: THIS CLEANER IS FOR STAINLESS STEEL
PARTS ONLY! Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner &
Polish to come into contact with any plastic parts such as the
trim pieces, dispenser covers or door gaskets. If accidental
contact does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild
detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly
with a soft cloth. To
order the cleaner, see the "Accessories"
section.
6.
Clean the condenser coils regularly. Coils may need to be
cleaned as often as every other month. This may help save
energy.
Style 1 - Condenser coils behind base grille:
•
Remove the base grille (see the "Base Grille" or "Door
Removal" section).
•
Use a vacuum with an extended attachment
to clean the
condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.
•
Replace the base grille when finished.
Style 2 - Condenser coils in back of the refrigerator:
•
Pull refrigerator out away from the wall (see the
"Unpacking Your Refrigerator" section).
•
Vacuum coils when they are dusty or dirty.
•
Roll refrigerator back into place. Make sure to leave 1 in.
(2.5 cm) between the cabinet back and the wall.
•
Check to see if the refrigerator is level.
Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your refrigerator. Be sure to
replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape, and wattage.
1.
Unplug refrigerator or disconnect
power.
2.
Remove the bulb from behind the control panel in the
refrigerator or from behind the light shield in the freezer (on
some models). Replace it with an appliance bulb of the same
wattage.
3.
Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep both
refrigerator doors closed to help food stay cold and frozen. If
the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the
following:
•
Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.
•
Place 2 Ibs. (907 g) of dry ice in the freezer for every cubic
foot (28 L) of freezer space. This will keep the food frozen for
two to four days.
•
If neither a food locker nor dry ice is available, consume or
can perishable food at once.
REMEMBER:
A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled
one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of
baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be
refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the
condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.
