CARE AND CLEANING AND ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Care and Cleaning
CAUTION
!
SHOCK HAZARD: Disconnect electrical power from the
appliance before cleaning with soap and water.
Front Grille
Periodically brush and vacuum the front grille area to main-
tain proper air flow through the condenser coil. See page 4,
Figure 2.
Cabinet
The painted cabinet can be washed with mild soap and
water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER use
abrasive scouring cleaners.
Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. DO
NOT use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner or
undiluted detergent.
Door Gasket
The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water,
a baking soda solution or a mild scouring powder.
In the Event of a Power Failure
Minimize the number of door openings to prolong storage
temperature until power is restored.
The following suggestions will minimize the cost of operat-
ing your refrigeration appliance.
1. Do not install your cold appliance next to a hot appli-
ance, (ovens, glassware washers, etc.). heating air
duct, or other heat sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Ensure the toe grille vents at front of unit beneath door
are not obstructed and kept clean to allow ventilation
for the refrigeration system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. When initially loading your new product, or whenever
large quantities of warm contents are placed within
refrigerated storage compartment, minimize door
openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull
down to compartment set temperature.
6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will
require less appliance run time than an empty compart-
ment.
7. Ensure door closing is not obstructed by contents
stored in your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before plac-
ing in product.
9. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set-temperature
that provides the proper storage for your stored con-
tents.
11. Set the control to the "off" position if cleaning the unit
requires the door to be open for an extended period of
time.
12. Periodically clean the front grille (toe kick), see page 4.
