WARNING
Broken Glass Hazard
Do not hit refrigerator glass doors.
Protect glass surface and edges during installation or
removal of doors.
Failure to do so can result in serious eye injury or
minor cuts.
Glass door panels: Wash glass door panels with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
NOTE: Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, furniture, toys, or
other objects. Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the glass
may weaken its structure, causing an increased likelihood of
breakage at a later date.
Stainless steel panels: Wash stainless steel with a clean
sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.
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 and Polish.
IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for Stainless Steel parts only!
Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish to come
into contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces,
dispenser covers or door gaskets. If unintentional 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 "Accessories."

Open the light shield. Grasp the light shield by the openings.
Gently push back and pull down, as shown, to access the

Close the light shield by raising it up into place.
NOTE: If needed, clean the light shield with a damp soft cloth.
Freezer and Crisper Lights
Remove the light shield by grasping the sides and squeezing
in toward the center. Once the side hooks of the shield are free
from the freezer or crisper lining, pull down the shield.
Replace the light shield by squeezing the top and bottom
toward the center and inserting the hooks into the slotted
holes. Once the hooks are in place, snap the front tab into the
slotted hole.
Power Interruptions
If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep the door or
doors closed (depending on your model) 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 lbs (907 g) of dry ice in the freezer for every cubic foot
(28 L) of freezer space. This will keep the food frozen for 2 to
4 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.
