products, is not covered under the warranty. Sharp or blunt
instruments will mar the finish.

Just because a cleaner is a liquid does not mean it is
nonabrasive. Many liquid cleansers formulated to be gentle

Interior Cleaning
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. 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.
NOTE: 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.
3. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Condenser Cleaning
There is no need for routine condenser cleaning in normal home
operating environments. If the environment is particularly greasy
or dusty, or there is significant pet traffic in the home, the
condenser should be cleaned every 2 to 3 months to ensure
maximum efficiency.
If you need to clean the condenser:
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove the base grille.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean the grille, the
open areas behind the grille and the front surface area of the
condenser.
4. Replace the base grille when finished.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Lights
The lights in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments are
LEDs which do not need to be replaced. If the lights do not
illuminate when the door or drawer is opened, call for assistance
or service. In the U.S.A., call 1-800-253-1301. In Canada call
1-800-807-6777.
