PROPER REFRIGERATOR CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning and Maintenance
Warning:
To avoid electric shock, always unplug your
refrigerator before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result
in death or injury.
Caution:
Before using cleaning products, always read and follow
manufacturer's instructions and warnings to avoid personal
injury or product damage.
General:
Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda
mixed with warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened
with the cleaning solution, to wipe down your refrigerator.
• Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine
bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring
pads. Some of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or
discolor your refrigerator.
Door Gaskets:
Clean door gaskets every three months according to general
instructions. Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to
assure a proper seal.
• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets
will keep the gasket pliable and ensure a good seal.
Defrost
Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the freezer compartment becomes 1/8"
thick. Never us a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage
the cooling coils. (A punctured cooling coil will cause serious damage to the
product and will void the warranty). We recommend using a plastic scraper. To
defrost, remove foods and ice cube tray from the freezer compartment. Make
sure the drip tray is in place and unplug the unit. Defrosting usually takes a few
hours. To defrost faster, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in
the refrigerator. After defrosting, empty water from the drip tray and wash the
drip tray in warm water.
