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 avoid buildup
of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT:
•
Because
air circulates
between
both sections,
any odors formed
in one section
will transfer
to the other. You must thoroughly
clean both sections
to eliminate
odors. To avoid odor transfer
and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
•
For stainless
steel models,
stainless
steel is corrosion-resistant
and not corrosion-proof.
To help avoid corrosion
of your stainless
steel, keep your surfaces
clean by using the following
cleaning
instructions.

There is no need for routine condenser
cleaning
in normal
home
operating
environments.

be cleaned
every 2 to 3 months to ensure
maximum
efficiency.
